Veo 3
A genuine, unscripted first-bite reaction shot in a real kitchen.
Example render coming soon — this prompt is actively used in client work; a sample clip will be added here once we can share one.
▸ THE FULL PROMPT
handheld kitchen reaction shot, subject seated or standing at a real counter, product already prepared or unwrapped and in frame subject: casual, present-tense reaction — not performing for camera, genuinely tasting for the first time (or performed to read as first time) camera: handheld, close-medium framing on face and hands, slight natural movement, no gimbal smoothness (0-2s) subject picks up the food/drink, brief anticipation beat — a look at it before tasting, no narration needed (2-4s) the actual bite or sip, camera holds on the face through the reaction — this is the moment the whole clip is built around, don't cut away from it (4-9s) genuine reaction plays out in real time — a pause, an exhale, a specific word about flavor or texture, said plainly not performed (9-14s) a second bite or sip, slightly more relaxed/confirmed reaction, maybe a comment to someone off-camera (14-16s) product set down or held toward camera, simple closing line lighting: real kitchen lighting — overhead or window light, warm and slightly imperfect, no food-styling light rig camera: handheld, close enough to read facial expression clearly, no tripod rigidity audio: real ambient kitchen sound (a kettle, cutlery, background chatter), voice natural volume, no music grain: naturalistic, slightly warm color temperature matching real kitchen light

How to use it
- Describe the food the way it looks served at home, not styled: the portion, the packaging, the crumbs. Use a photo of the real product as the reference.
- Take the flavour or texture word from real reviews, such as "crunchy" or "not too sweet".
- Set it in a kitchen your buyers would recognise. For a Singapore audience, an HDB kitchen counter reads as more real than a showroom.
- Keep the camera on the face through the bite, as the prompt says. That moment is the ad.
Where it goes wrong
- The eating physics is wrong. Food that doesn't break when bitten, or a drink that never goes down, gives it away. Re-render.
- The reaction is over-acted. Eyes rolling back reads as an ad. Keep to the prompt's pause and exhale.
- The pack is generic. Keep your packaging in frame and give the model a reference image of it.
What to test
- The first bite as the hook against the second, more confident bite.
- With and without the off-camera comment.
- With the crunch or pour sound lifted in the mix.
