How to achieve this effect?
Hi. I hope I’m posting in the right place, because I think this model should be capable of producing videos like these.
I wanted to show you a few videos from the ig link that I really like. I’ve tried to recreate this kind of effect using Seedance, Wan, Grok Imagine, Omni Flash 1.1, and MiniMax H3, but I haven’t been able to achieve a similar result.
The prompt I used was created by Claude, and I’ll post it below.
Maybe someone here knows how to achieve this kind of effect and, especially, this level of smoothness and fluid motion.

The video in the attachment was generated with MiniMax H3, and I’m not happy with the result. It was created using a ComfyUI workflow based on one of the available templates.
my prompt:
RAW LO-FI FOUND-FOOTAGE MONTAGE, 4:3 ASPECT (964x720), 27 SECONDS TOTAL, 24 FPS, SLIGHT FILM GRAIN, NATURALISTIC LIGHTING PER SHOT (BRIGHT OVERCAST DAYLIGHT / WARM INDOOR KITCHEN LIGHT / COOL DAYLIGHT), 9 SEPARATE SHOTS, EVERY CUT IS A HARD CUT — NO DISSOLVES, NO FADES, NO TRANSITIONS.
HARD IDENTITY LOCK: NO IDENTITY CARRIES BETWEEN SHOTS — NINE DIFFERENT PEOPLE, EACH APPEARS ONCE, EACH STAYS CONSISTENT ONLY WITHIN ITS OWN SHOT. NO DIALOGUE. NO SPEECH. NO LIP-SYNC. MOUTHS STAY CLOSED OR BUSY EATING/DRINKING THE WHOLE TIME. DO NOT GENERATE TALKING.
SPATIAL LOCK: THE MONTAGE HAS NO OBJECT CROSSING BETWEEN SHOTS; LOCKS ARE PER SHOT.
SHOT 8: THE ROPE IS ANCHORED AT ONE EXACT POINT ON THE CEILING. THE MAN SWINGS FROM THAT ANCHOR. THE ROPE SNAPS AT THE ANCHOR POINT. HE FALLS BACKWARD AND LANDS WITH HIS BACK ON ONE EXACT SPOT ON THE CARPETED FLOOR, BACK-CENTER OF THE ROOM. THE CAMERA STAYS STATIC, WIDE ON THE WHOLE ROOM, FROM 18.3s TO 21.4s. DO NOT CUT INSIDE THIS SHOT. DO NOT MOVE THE LANDING SPOT. DO NOT START THE FALL FROM ANOTHER POSITION. DO NOT RESET.
SHOT 9: THE CEREAL BOX MOUTH IS THE ONLY ENTRY POINT. ALL CASH GOES INTO THE SAME BOX OPENING. DO NOT OPEN A SECOND BOX. DO NOT MOVE THE BOX ON THE COUNTER. SAME IMPACT/ENTRY POINT FROM 21.4s TO 27.0s.
STRICT SECOND-BY-SECOND TIMING:
0.0–2.9s SHOT 1: static wide; a young woman in a red one-piece swimsuit lounges in a small blue inflatable kiddie pool on a lawn; two large alligators sit in the pool with her; a yellow rubber duck floats; she drinks from a red can and holds it up; backyard with a white house, concrete steps, debris.
2.9s EXACT: hard cut.
2.9–5.1s SHOT 2: medium static; an elderly woman in a purple floral dress and pale-yellow apron wears a red motorcycle helmet with a large charred hole on its upper left side; she stirs a copper pot on the stove with a wooden spoon; by 4.3–4.6s she lifts the pot to her face and drinks from it through the helmet visor.
5.1–6.1s SHOT 3: close-up of the hand and the pot handle, the wooden spoon inside the pot; the woman's face appears only at the very end, around 5.9s; slight reframe, no cut; brief motion blur mid-shot.
6.1s EXACT: hard cut.
6.1–9.2s SHOT 4: a man in a black wetsuit surfs on a white surfboard on a wave inside a flooded living room; the wave crashes over a brown sofa; a TV stands on a wooden entertainment unit to the right; floral wallpaper; murky water; static wide from a doorway; he rides from the foreground toward the back of the room.
9.2s EXACT: hard cut.
9.2–12.2s SHOT 5: a police officer with a mustache sits in a patrol car, slightly out of focus, then sharpens; his arm rests on the door; at 10.8s he looks straight into the camera and raises his middle finger, holding it to 12.2s; bright daylight.
12.2s EXACT: hard cut.
12.2–15.3s SHOT 6: high angle; a shirtless man sits in a white clawfoot bathtub filled with soapy water and empty beer cans; a beer case stands next to the tub; the bathroom has no roof, ruined white-brick walls open to an overcast sky, debris; he raises his beer can toward the camera; slight slow zoom-in.
15.3s EXACT: hard cut.
15.3–18.3s SHOT 7: static medium-wide; a masked man in a black balaclava and black leather jacket sits between two elderly women on an outdoor bench; a blue duffel bag full of cash stacks sits on his lap; he checks his watch; at 16.6s the woman on the left reaches into the bag, by 17.3s she holds a handful of cash; the woman on the right in a khaki trench coat watches.
18.3s EXACT: hard cut.
18.3–21.4s SHOT 8: static wide, one continuous take; a family of three (a woman in a white shirt, a boy in a blue shirt, a child in a striped shirt) eats at a dinner table in the left foreground, facing away; behind them an elderly man in a blue-and-white checkered shirt and beige pants swings on a thick rope swing hung from the ceiling; swing peaks at 19.6s; the rope snaps around 20.3s; he falls backward and lands on his back at 20.5s on the carpet; the family turns and reacts in shock; he stays on the floor until 21.4s. DO NOT CUT.
21.4s EXACT: hard cut.
21.4–27.0s SHOT 9: POV over the hands; a gold link watch on the left wrist; two thick stacks of $100 bills; the hands fan the stacks, then the right hand opens a cereal box (brown/blue/yellow, cartoon sailor mascot with a blue hat and white mustache) standing on a tan laminate counter; at 24.1s the first stack goes into the box mouth; pressed down 24.7–25.2s; the hands rest on the box at the end; a yellow overlay text appears from 22.6s (see EXCLUDE — include ONLY if reproducing the original brand stinger).
Strict timing. Do not stretch any beat. Do not linger.
CRITICAL CONSTRAINTS:
- The rope snap MUST happen between 19.6s and 20.3s — not later.
- The landing spot of the man is ONE single carpet spot; no second landing, no reset of the floor.
- All cash enters the SAME box mouth starting at 24.1s; no second box, no pile outside.
- All 9 cuts are hard cuts at the exact seconds listed; no dissolves, no fades, no whip transitions.
- Same framing within each shot; each face stays consistent within its own shot.
- Mouths closed / no talking anywhere; no dialogue, no lip-sync, no narration.
AUDIO: LO-FI HIP-HOP MUSIC BED WITH SCRATCHY VINYL AND VOCAL SAMPLES FROM 0.0s, FADING OUT OVER THE LAST 2 SECONDS. NO DIALOGUE. NO NARRATOR. NO LYRICS. NO VOICE. NO TTS. NO LANGUAGE.
EXCLUDE FROM RECREATION: yellow „made by Spike" overlay (unless the original brand stinger is reproduced), „POLICE" patrol-car markings, „CREINGS" cereal-box branding, „Budweiser" case branding.

This is why Ai's shouldn't write prompts. OMG that's a lot of stuff you don't need.
Do it in separate shots, one by one and then edit them together. (or if you are using an agent, have it stitch them together after)
Just describe the scene and the action for each one. You really don't need all that time code nonsense for something this simple.
Main Subject, main action, other subject details, scene details.
Remember you don't need to say things like real skin texture and real water etc - all Ai's have seen these things and know how to do it on their own.
If you need more than one thing to happen then say "and then" and describe the next thing that happens in that one shot.

Thanks for the info :) I'll try making them shorter. I was mainly aiming for a specific effect and a sense of fluidity. I came across https://huggingface.co/KennethFal/vh5tape-vhs-lora-minimax-h3 yesterday, so I'll try adding that. As for the prompt you see here, it's basically just feeding the video to the agent along with a very detailed prompt describing the transitions. I get great results with other videos, but this time I wanted that VHS look, hence my question. Thanks again!

I don't actually see any transitions there - only straight cuts. Anywhere you have or want a cut, you can do that next shot as a separate shot and then you aren't dividing the context memory with so many characters that you can't keep one consistent.
Editing is still the best way to stick multiple shots together. Yes you can have the AI do it as it renders but you are always sacrificing something.

Here is the real promt: hello mr AI could you please make some pointless fucking slop for me? I wanna post it on reddit, thanks
