EXAMPLE — MADE WITH THIS EXACT PROMPT

THE PROMPT — COPY, SWAP THE BRACKETS, RUN

Vertical 4:5 frame styled as a grainy CCTV security-camera still from a high corner mount, slight fisheye distortion, looking down into a dim home kitchen at night. Washed-out green-grey monochrome, heavy sensor noise, soft motion blur. A person in pajamas and socks is frozen mid-act, guiltily hauling armfuls of [PRODUCT — e.g. "Cluvo, sour gummy worms in neon-green pouches"] from a delivery box into a top cupboard already stacked with them, face turned toward the camera like a deer in headlights. The pouches must stay the sharpest, most legible objects in frame. CCTV overlays in white pixel font: top left "CAM 03 — KITCHEN", top right "02:14:37 AM  08/11", a small red "REC" dot in the upper corner, and a bottom caption bar reading [CAPTION — e.g. "SUBJECT RESTOCKING CLUVO. THIRD TIME THIS WEEK."] Add faint horizontal scan lines and slight timestamp jitter. All text exact and correctly spelled. The mood is deadpan comedy, not menace: no violence, no weapons, no horror grading, no clean studio light, no real security-system logos, no watermark.

HOW TO RUN IT

  1. Paste the prompt into GPT Image and rewrite the caption bar in your brand's voice.
  2. Keep the grain and blur — a too-clean frame breaks the CCTV illusion instantly.
  3. Check the timestamp and caption spelling closely; pixel fonts hide typos.
