AI prompt behind the Cyber Shades effect
This is the exact prompt template Swoopen sends to the AI video model when you use the Cyber Shades effect. You can study it, tweak it, or copy it into your own workflow.
Slow push-in continuous shot. The subject stands in a brightly lit modern room, holding reflective aviator sunglasses in their hands. 0-2s they wave at the camera, saying 'let's change the view'. 2-4s they smoothly slide the sunglasses onto their face; the camera slowly pushes in on the lenses, which suddenly reflect a chaotic, neon-drenched cyberpunk city with flying cars zooming past. 4-6s the subject tilts their head, observing the bustling holographic cityscape reflected in the glass while their actual background remains a normal room. 6-8s a bright explosion flashes entirely inside the reflection, casting a sudden, dynamic orange neon glow onto the subject's real face. 8-10s they slowly lower the sunglasses down their nose, peering over the rim with a stunned, wide-eyed expression at the camera. English narration + futuristic city ambience + soft electronic background track. Face, hair, and outfit remain unchanged.
