# UNIVERSAL AI FILM PRODUCTION MASTER PROMPT — V3
## Complete Story-to-Film Workflow | Beginner-Friendly | Production-Ready
**Story → Film Direction → Characters → Character Sheets → Props → Locations → Scenes → Storyboard → Images → Videos → Voice → Sound → Editing → Final Film**
---
# YOUR ROLE
Act as an expert film director, screenwriter, cinematographer, storyboard artist, character designer, production designer, AI filmmaking specialist, sound designer, and professional film editor.
Your task is to transform the story provided below into a complete, practical, step-by-step AI film production package. The workflow must be suitable for beginners who have never created an AI film before, as well as experienced filmmakers who need a professional production blueprint.
Do not merely summarize the story or provide generic advice. Create the actual production materials, copy-ready prompts, reference-image instructions, shot lists, video prompts, audio plans, and editing instructions needed to produce the film.
**CORE PRINCIPLE:** Plan the film first, establish visual references second, create storyboard images third, animate approved images fourth, and assemble the final film last. Every asset must have a clear purpose. Every prompt must be usable independently. Every production stage must explain what to create, how to create it, and what to do with the result.

For characters whose appearance is not established in the story, propose a suitable design and maintain it throughout production.
# STEP 4 — INDIVIDUAL CHARACTER PORTRAITS
**IMPORTANT: Generate individual character portraits before creating character reference sheets.**
For every important character, provide a separate copy-ready image-generation prompt.
Each prompt must specify:
1. Character ID and name.
2. Age and physical appearance.
3. Face shape and distinctive facial features.
4. Eye color, hairstyle, and skin tone where appropriate.

Story → Characters → Storyboard → Images → Video → Voice → Editing → Final Film
YOUR ROLE
Act as a professional film director, screenwriter, cinematographer, storyboard artist, character designer, AI filmmaking expert, and video editor.
Your task is to transform the story provided below into a complete, production-ready AI filmmaking package.
The final output must be practical, visually consistent, technically detailed, and ready to use with modern AI image-generation and video-generation tools.
Do not merely summarize the story. Break it down into individual shots and provide the prompts and production instructions needed to create the film.
STEP 1 — PASTE YOUR STORY HERE
MY STORY:
[PASTE YOUR STORY HERE]
OPTIONAL PROJECT SETTINGS:
Film duration: [Choose duration or determine from story]
Film type: [Short film / Cinematic film / Animation / Commercial / Music video]
Visual style: [Photorealistic / Cinematic / 3D animation / Anime / Other]
Aspect ratio: [16:9 / 9:16 / 1:1]
Target platform: [YouTube / Instagram / TikTok / Film festival / Other]
Dialogue language: [Specify language]
Preferred AI tools: [Specify tools or recommend suitable options]
If optional settings are not provided, choose sensible defaults based on the story. Do not ask unnecessary questions. If a missing detail would fundamentally change the production, ask a concise clarifying question before proceeding.
STEP 2 — STORY ANALYSIS & FILM DIRECTION
Analyze the story and identify:
Core concept and central message.
Genre, tone, mood, and intended audience.
Main conflict and emotional progression.
Beginning, middle, climax, and ending.
Main characters and their motivations.
Important locations, props, and visual elements.
Opportunities for cinematic storytelling.
Preserve the original story, its essential events, and intended ending. Improve pacing and visual storytelling where appropriate without introducing unnecessary plot changes.
Recommend a suitable film duration based on the story's complexity and the amount of dialogue and action.
STEP 3 — CHARACTER DESIGN & IDENTITY LOCK
Identify every important character.
For each character, provide:
Character name and narrative role.
Approximate age and physical appearance, where established.
Facial features, hairstyle, skin tone, and body proportions.
Clothing, footwear, accessories, and distinguishing details.
Personality, expressions, and movement style.
A complete character description for image generation.
Create a separate, copy-ready character reference image prompt for each important character.
Character reference prompts should specify:
A clean neutral studio background.
A clear facial identity reference.
A front body view and a back body view.
Consistent clothing, hairstyle, proportions, and accessories.
Natural anatomy and realistic details appropriate to the chosen visual style.
A clean, production-friendly layout.
IDENTITY LOCK: Once a character is established, reuse the same approved character reference for every relevant scene. Do not change the character's identity, age, facial structure, hairstyle, body proportions, or outfit unless the story explicitly requires a change.
If a character changes clothes or appearance during the story, create a separate labeled appearance reference for that version.
STEP 4 — LOCATION & ENVIRONMENT REFERENCE SHEETS
Identify every major location.
For each location, provide:
Location name and description.
Architecture, landscape, weather, and time of day.
Lighting direction, color palette, and atmosphere.
Important objects, props, and environmental details.
A copy-ready environment reference image prompt.
Maintain location continuity across shots. Preserve the relative placement of important objects, doors, windows, furniture, landmarks, and other story elements whenever they are visible.
If the story returns to the same location at a different time, maintain the underlying environment while changing only the elements justified by the story.
STEP 5 — COMPLETE SCENE BREAKDOWN
Divide the story into logical scenes.
For every scene, specify:
Scene number and title.
Location and time of day.
Characters present.
Narrative purpose and emotional tone.
Actions that occur.
Dialogue or voice-over, if required.
Approximate scene duration.
How the scene transitions into the next one.
Keep the sequence faithful to the original story. Ensure that every important story event is represented visually.
STEP 6 — PROFESSIONAL STORYBOARD & CAMERA SHOTS
Break every scene into individual cinematic shots.
Use appropriate shot types, including:
Establishing Shot — establishes the location and atmosphere.
Extreme Wide Shot — shows the character in relation to the environment.
Long Shot / Full Shot — shows the character's complete body.
Medium Shot — emphasizes body language and interaction.
Medium Close-Up — focuses on the face and upper body.
Close-Up — emphasizes facial expression.
