T2VA Shot Lists (No Reference Files)
Pure text-to-video for concept ads — observable actions, camera verbs, and timestamps when you care about pacing.
T2VA is for “I only have words” — launch films, mood pieces, concepts before pack shots exist. You carry the full burden of specificity; there are no reference files to bail you out.
What H3 needs from you
Think storyboard + sound notes:
- Shots with time —
[Shot 1] 0–4s:or0–4s:inline - Camera — push-in, truck left, static tripod, handheld micro-shake
- Action you can see — “steam rolls across knuckles,” not “she feels cozy”
- Sound in scene + music — separate blocks at the end
Official label for the main body: integrated_multimodal_description. You can use that header or plain [Shot 1] lines — both appear in working examples.
Camera verbs that actually register
| Say this | Instead of | |----------|------------| | Slow push-in toward hood badge | Cinematic reveal | | Truck left, subject static | Dynamic camera | | Locked tripod, no shake | Professional look | | Handheld micro-shake, documentary | Raw authentic vibe |
For one continuous take, write: “Single continuous shot, no cuts.” H3 may cut by default.
Dialogue in short clips
15 seconds fills fast. One or two short lines max:
(S1) says: "We're out of time." — controlled, not shouting.
Put dialogue in the same shot where the mouth is visible.
First / last frame modes (quick note)
- I2VA: “Treat @image1 as the opening frame; describe what changes forward.”
- FL2VA: “Path from @image1 to @image2 — continuous motion, no invented cuts.”
- L2VA: “Converge into the last frame from a plausible moment before it.”
FL2VA is not the place for montage unless you describe a continuous morph (rare).
Example skeleton (automotive hero)
integrated_multimodal_description:
[Shot 1] 0–4s: Wide — silver EV on rain-slick plaza, neon bokeh…
[Shot 2] 4–9s: Low tracking — silent launch, water spray…
[Shot 3] 9–12s: Rear — taillight bar, tunnel entry…
overall_soundscape: Rain, tire hiss, electrical relay clicks…
non_diegetic_music: Sub drone → pulse at 8s → silence last 2s.
When T2VA is the wrong tool
- You have accurate product photography → Ref2VA
- You need the exact face from a casting photo → Ref2VA
- You need logo-perfect label text → Ref2VA + explicit “lock label”
