Cast: one man and one woman. Thirty seconds at a lighthouse through one night: the keeper and the visitor who came up out of the fog, the revolving beam sweeping across the two of them once every few seconds and leaving them in dark between passes. The visitor's soaked shirt clings to the chest; the beam finds a bare throat, then leaves them dark; close two-shot. Foghorn and sea. Cinematic, heavy film grain, beam white in fog green.

Why this prompt works

A revolving beam gives the clip a fixed period — light every few seconds, darkness between passes — so the render has to hold a rhythm rather than a state. Written from nothing at `duration_seconds` `10`, `720p`, `16:9`, with `generate_audio` on so the foghorn and the sea arrive in the same file. A periodic subject is the honest way to check whether a long clip is continuous or quietly resetting.

Settings used

SettingValueWhat it does
resolution720p480p, 720p or 1080p. Defaults to 720p. Resolution changes both the price and how long the task takes to come back.
aspect_ratio16:916:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 or adaptive, which lets the model choose. Defaults to 16:9.
generate_audiotrueOn by default. The clip comes back with sound already locked to the picture. Set false when you are scoring the shot yourself.
duration_seconds10Any whole number from 2 to 30, or -1 for smart duration, where the model picks the length: the 30-second maximum is held up front and the charge settles on the length actually delivered. Defaults to 5. Longer clips drift more, so settle the look at 5 seconds before extending.
