# Animate Product ## Purpose Turn one hero product photo into a short, coherent product video by directing motion only — camera, light, and environment move; the product itself stays pixel-faithful. ## When to use - A landing hero, story ad, or reel needs motion but only a still exists. - A single-take reveal or a 2–3 shot mini-ad is wanted. - Not for a clean turntable (use `product-spin`) or a still hero (use `product-explosion` or `ad-creative`). ## Inputs - Hero product photo, clean and well lit. Required. - One-line selling point (drives the motion idea). - Length: 5, 8, or 10 s per shot; number of shots (default 1, max 3). - Aspect ratio: 9:16 story, 1:1 feed, 16:9 web. - Constraints such as "no faces", "no text", "silent". ## Output A **Shot Card** per shot, then the generated clip(s) if a generator is available. Shot Card format: 1. `Model`: video, image-to-video, with the hero photo as the first frame. 2. `Scene`: environment and surface in one clause. 3. `Camera`: exactly one motivated move (slow push-in, drift, orbit, tilt, rack focus). 4. `Action`: what moves around the product (light sweep, mist, particles, water, fabric). 5. `Physics micro-directives`, two of them: e.g. "condensation beads slide slowly", "dust motes drift in backlight". 6. `Continuity anchor`: "product remains centred, same scale and label orientation as the reference". 7. `Fidelity clause`, verbatim: "Keep the product shape, logo, label, colour, packaging, material, and proportions ex
