Base Image / Keyframe Prompt

Subject, composition, optics & lighting — send to your image model.

the subject. medium hero shot, subject framed from mid-torso up, heroic and commanding presence, shot on a 35mm anamorphic lens, oval bokeh, horizontal lens flares and gentle barrel character, cyberpunk volumetric neon lighting, saturated magenta and cyan glow, atmospheric haze and wet reflective highlights, 2.39:1 cinematic anamorphic widescreen aspect ratio. Photorealistic, cinematic color grade, high dynamic range, sharp focus.
Motion / Camera Layer

Pure camera vectors & physics — feed to your video tool's motion engine.

Camera move: steady forward dolly push-in along the Z-axis, camera translating toward the subject on a locked track, smooth cinematic glide, steady professional gimbal cadence. foreground and background planes separate with dynamic parallax, depth compression building as distance closes. strict frame-to-frame identity lock, subject features, wardrobe and proportions held perfectly consistent. Animate only the camera and environment, not the subject's core features.
Negative Prompt & Style Modifiers

Quality guards and style direction to keep results clean and on-brief.

Negative: blurry, low quality, distorted, deformed, extra limbs, disfigured, watermark, signature, jpeg artifacts, text errors, bad anatomy, flickering, temporal inconsistency, morphing artifacts, warping, ghosting. Style: cinematic film grain, anamorphic character, high dynamic range, professional color grade.

Frequently asked questions

›What is CineCue?

CineCue is a free, independent prompt generator for AI video, product photography, and ad creative. You pick a camera move, lens, lighting, and style, describe your subject, and it compiles clean prompts you can paste into your AI image or video tool.

›What are keyframe, motion, and negative prompts?

The keyframe prompt describes a single still image: subject, framing, lens, and lighting. The motion prompt describes only how the camera moves and how the scene should behave over time. The negative prompt lists what to avoid, like warping, flicker, or extra limbs. Keeping them separate gives AI video models clearer instructions than one long paragraph.

›How do I use the prompts?

Generate an image from the keyframe prompt first. Then use that image as the start frame in an image-to-video tool, paste the motion prompt as the video prompt, and add the negative prompt if the tool supports one. For still photos, only the keyframe and negative prompts are needed.

›Which AI tools does it work with?

The prompts are plain text, so they work with most AI image and video generators that accept text prompts, including tools with image-to-video and camera-control features. Results vary by model, so small wording tweaks are normal.

›Is CineCue free? Do I need an account?

Yes, it is free and there is no sign-up. Everything runs in your browser and nothing you type is stored.

›Why do camera moves fail in AI video?

Usually because the prompt names the move without describing it. Models respond better to mechanics, like "camera dollies backward while the lens zooms in, subject stays the same size", than to a label alone. Asking for too much motion in one short clip also causes warping.
