AI prompt behind the Lunar Moment effect

This is the exact prompt template Swoopen sends to the AI video model when you use the Lunar Moment effect. You can study it, tweak it, or copy it into your own workflow.

Take the exact person from the reference photo and place them on the grey dusty lunar surface — preserve their face, hair, skin tone, age, gender, ethnicity and current clothing EXACTLY, changing only the environment (do NOT turn their clothing into a spacesuit). Surroundings: grey-dust regolith with subtle crater shadows beneath their feet, Earth rising on the dark horizon, faint stars in the pitch-black sky, cool moonlight diffusing across the landscape (keep natural neutral light on the face, no cold blue cast on the subject). Framed waist-up, shallow depth of field. Then animate naturally for 4 seconds: the subject holds an expression of quiet awe and slowly turns their head toward the horizon as Earth rises; distant lunar dust drifts faintly. Camera: slow 35mm front push-in from medium to close-up over 4 seconds. Audio: soft ambient space tones, gentle sci-fi synth pad, low rumble of distant rocket, no dialogue. Photo-real, natural neutral light on the subject's face. No on-screen text, no watermarks, no captions, no logos.
