Book Cover Timelapse Sequence
─────────────────────────────

PROMPT
Cinematic 8-second timelapse. Subject: a symbolic cover illustration. Location: a flat graphic background. Camera: locked off on a tripod, absolutely no movement, wide framing that holds the whole scene. Motion: time accelerates — light shifts across the frame, shadows sweep, clouds or people stream through as soft motion trails while the fixed elements stay razor sharp. Details: clear space reserved for title and author remaining stable throughout as everything transient moves around it. Lighting: a full transition from one state to another, evocative throughout. Grade: rich contrast, deep sky, filmic highlight roll-off. 24fps output, no cuts, no text overlays.

NEGATIVE PROMPT
garbled title text, cluttered composition, no copy space, competing focal points, low contrast, misspelled words, camera movement, panning, zooming, flickering exposure, strobing, warping static elements, jump cuts, text overlays, watermark, inconsistent light direction, melting architecture

RECOMMENDED SETTINGS
Runway Gen-3: 10s, camera motion 0, high consistency
Kling: Professional mode, creativity 0.35
Veo: 8s, request "locked tripod, no camera movement" explicitly
Deflicker in post — exposure strobing is the classic timelapse artefact.

For this subject: Strong single image with clear space; covers must work as a thumbnail before anything else.

CAPTION
Hours compressed into eight seconds, camera never moves.

Lock the camera. A timelapse with camera movement becomes a hyperlapse and needs a different prompt.
