Runway Prompt

Use the main reference image as the visual anchor. Treat the other reference images only as supporting cues for texture, props, or framing. A clean side-by-side layout establishes comparison logic while the product or offer remains easy to scan. Motion stays restrained and clarity-led until the final comparison frame settles.

Storyboard

3 to 5 scene script

  1. Scene 1

    A clean split layout establishes immediate comparison logic. Keep the frame aligned with the main reference image.

  2. Scene 2

    Differences become clear while the product hierarchy stays easy to understand. Keep the frame aligned with the main reference image.

  3. Scene 3

    The final frame balances persuasion, readability, and CTA space. Keep the frame aligned with the main reference image.

Camera Notes

Use the main reference image for angle, crop, and subject hierarchy. Use a clean two-zone or modular layout with clear side-by-side hierarchy.

Lighting Notes

Match the lighting logic of the main reference image first. Use consistent lighting across both comparison zones to keep the contrast readable.

Motion Notes

Keep motion choices consistent with the main reference image. Use subtle transitions between the two zones and a stable final comparison lockup.

Prompt Variations

  • Make the comparison more ecommerce and feature-led. Keep the main reference image as the visual anchor.
  • Use a B2B or SaaS comparison direction with stronger interface cues. Keep the main reference image as the visual anchor.
  • Create a cleaner sale-oriented version with stronger CTA emphasis. Keep the main reference image as the visual anchor.

FAQ

When do comparison ads work best?

They work best when the audience already understands the category and needs a clearer reason to choose one option.

Can comparison ads feel premium?

Yes. Keep the layout clean, the message simple, and the lighting consistent rather than overloading the frame with claims.

How should I use the reference images?

Use the main reference image for composition, lighting, palette, and product focus. Use the other reference images as secondary support.
