Below is a full Unforgettable car trend AI prompt to copy into an image-to-video tool, a second-by-second version, what happened when we ran it once in Kling 3.0 Turbo, and fixes to try. Rather not write a prompt? Make it here from one photo; the card swipe and timing come from the trend's clip.

  • For: image-to-video tools that take one photo
  • Length: written for a 10-second clip
  • Shape: in our run, the shape of the photo

The full Unforgettable car trend prompt

Paste this into an image-to-video tool together with one clear, front-facing photo of you. Change the two parts in brackets to your setting and your car; leave the rest as it is. Each sentence targets a common mistake, though in our run the model still ignored some of them (see below).

In our run the clip took the photo's shape (3:4). For 9:16, start from a 9:16 photo or check your tool's ratio setting.

Prompt

Handheld vertical selfie video, one continuous 10-second shot with no cuts, 1golden-hour sunset on an empty coastal road by the sea. The person from the photo holds the phone at arm's length and talks to the camera with a confident smile; the road behind them is empty. At 3 seconds they raise two green UNO draw cards side by side, a +2 on the left and a +4 on the right, and sweep them across the lens, covering the camera for a split second. When the cards clear, 2a glossy red Ferrari SF90 is parked on the road right behind them. They turn and point back at the car, lean toward the camera with a hand over their mouth as if sharing a secret, then flip their hair with both hands. Keep the same face, hair and outfit as the photo the whole time. Realistic phone footage, natural skin, sharp card numbers, five fingers on each hand, the car keeps the same shape and colour, no text on screen.

  1. Setting — Where you film. Keep "empty" in it, so the road is clear until the cards pass.
  2. Car — Name the make, model and colour. A named car keeps its shape better than "a supercar".
Second by second, then a real run

What the 24 car trend prompt asks for, and what we got

The prompt describes four beats. We ran it once in Kling 3.0 Turbo with a portrait photo to see which of them a video model actually follows.

The 10 seconds, beat by beat

If your tool takes shorter clips, keep the order and squeeze the timing.

  1. 0 s–3 s

    Talk to the camera. The road behind you is empty.

  2. 3 s–4 s

    Hold up the +2 and the +4 and sweep them across the lens.

  3. 4 s–7 s

    The cards clear and the car is parked behind you. Turn and point at it.

  4. 7 s–10 s

    Lean in with a hand over your mouth, then flip your hair.

Our run in Kling 3.0 Turbo

The face, the glasses, the sweater and the two card numbers all came out right, and a red Ferrari SF90 was waiting on the coast road. But the first five seconds stayed in front of the grey wall from the photo, and instead of sweeping the cards across the lens she held them still before the clip cut to the road.

The 24 car trend prompt vs one photo here

A prompt lets you describe any setting and car, and the clip takes your photo's shape. One photo here gives you the trend's own swipe and timing, without writing anything.
