Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Short Film Maker tool:
- Provide the project title, genre, tone, and any visual references.
- Ask ChatGPT to run `short-film-maker` with `title_sequence` to generate the intro.
- Request a production summary covering typography choice, atmosphere, audio, and brand fit.
- Attach the clip and brief to your project documentation for team or client review.
Example Prompt
Try this with ChatGPT using the Short Film Maker tool
Use short-film-maker with title_sequence to create an opening title for 'The Last Fishermen' — slow reveal, serif, dark ocean atmosphere, orchestral swell. After generating, write a production summary covering the typography choice, atmosphere, audio design, and how they reinforce the documentary's tone.
Tips
- Document the creative rationale for client presentations — it shows deliberate directorial choices, not random generation.
- Include intended duration in your brief: 3-second logo sting vs 8-second cinematic intro require different approaches.
- Have ChatGPT compare the output against two reference sequences from other projects so clients understand the aesthetic position.
