Customization ideas

Replace the subject details with a clearly defined version of opening scene (0-8 seconds):.
Specify delivery format, duration, and aspect ratio before refining camera movement.
Adapt lighting and palette to the intended audience or campaign mood.
Add a reference only when it improves identity, layout, or style continuity.

Constraints and cautions

Original prompt

Opening Scene (0-8 seconds): Begin with tense underwater shots of WWII submarines submerged beneath choppy ocean waves. Show periscopes rising through grey stormy waters, sailors peering through binoculars at the horizon. Quick cut to deck view: a massive warship cutting through rough seas, anti-aircraft guns scanning the sky. Low-angle submarine shot showing hull approaching from below the surface. Torpedo Launch (8-15 seconds): Close-up on control room: submarine captain gives order, crew activates torpedo tubes. Dramatic underwater sequence as torpedo launches silently with bubbles trailing behind it. Fast tracking shot following torpedo speeding through blue water toward the warship below. Tense music builds. Ship's lookouts spot incoming danger just in time—alarms blaring across deck. Explosion & Shrapnel (15-20 seconds): Impact! Massive underwater explosion erupts beneath the warship. Steel plates twist and rip apart as hull breaches violently. Water jets upward in towering columns while shrapnel flies everywhere. SLOW MOTION: Metal fragments, bolts, and debris shooting through air in all directions at different speeds. Sunlight catches each piece mid-flight with realistic physics and water spray. Aircraft Hit (20-25 seconds): Shrapnel trajectory crosses upward—strikes a WWII warplane (P-38 Lightning or similar) flying overhead at high altitude. Plane spins out of control, trailing black smoke as engines sputter. Pilot's desperate struggle visible through cockpit canopy. CRITICAL MOMENT: Ejection seat fires with rocket boost, pilot launches skyward just before plane continues downward toward churning ocean waters below. Pilot Escape (25-28 seconds): Parachute deploys in slow motion—canopy billowing open as pilot descends safely above the chaos. Cut to warship listing heavily as water floods through massive breach, bow sinking rapidly. Crew members rush to lifeboats, some jumping into churning sea with life jackets on. Final Shot (28-30 seconds): Warship disappears beneath waves leaving only wreckage and foam. Pilot floats safely in rescue boat while debris drifts across surface. Final frame: dramatic wide ocean shot with smoke rising from sinking vessel against stormy grey sky. Style & Technical: Cinematic color grading: desaturated blues, greys with high contrast Realistic water physics with accurate wave patterns and spray Subsurface cinematography showing light rays penetrating underwater Dynamic camera angles: drone shots, underwater housings, deck-mounted cameras Slow-motion at explosion moment (50% of action) Period-correct WWII submarines (Gato-class), warships (destroyer/battleship), aircraft Immersive sound design: submarine engines, torpedo launch, explosions, water rushing in, pilot ejection rockets, parachute fabric ripening
