Animation Gemini 4 : 6 exemples et prompts

Create a 15-second, 16:9 motion design film called "THE SOUND LAB": a richly detailed retro-futurist synthesizer whose mechanisms visibly make the music we hear.

IDEA: Begin with a beautifully composed view of a tactile instrument. A sequencer starts: selected keys depress, oscillator modules pulse, patch-cable signals travel, waveform traces change and VU meters react. Travel through a few carefully chosen details, then reveal the whole connected instrument playing together. This should feel like a designed physical sound machine, not a generic animated dashboard.

ART DIRECTION: cream enamel, charcoal panels, warm orange LEDs, cobalt accents, finely printed labels, chunky keys, ribbed knobs, restrained brushed metal and convincing small shadows. Many distinct functional components, lovingly arranged. Use a few strong focal areas, with smaller discoveries around them. You choose the instrument's layout, camera, typography and transitions.

MOTION AND MUSIC: compose a short original synthesized electronic phrase. Give the instrument a small set of clearly recognizable events: one bass pulse, one melody pattern, one percussion pattern, then a combined section. The visible corresponding keys, lights and meters must trigger from those same musical events rather than animate randomly. Use precise mechanical movement, tactile easing, one brief breakdown and a satisfying final chord.

TEXT: keep labels short and legible. No invented specifications, scrolling paragraphs or on-screen player controls.

No narration, external footage or generated image assets. Generate the sound in code and deliver one complete playable animation, with an ending held long enough to read "THE SOUND LAB".

Create a 15-second, 16:9 premium motion design product film for an imaginary running shoe called "FLOW / 01".

IDEA: A convincing, beautifully designed running shoe floats in a sculptural studio. Its construction separates into a few readable layers: knitted upper, soft midsole and rubber outsole. Rich material detail, small exploded construction elements and restrained airflow and compression diagrams reveal how the parts work together. The layers then reassemble into a strong final hero shot. The shoe must remain recognizable throughout.

ART DIRECTION: warm white knitted upper, sculpted cream midsole, charcoal outsole, a few electric-coral details, off-white studio with coherent light and cast shadows. Show the volume of the toe, heel and sole, the weave of the upper, lacing and tread. Use premium editorial typography, sharp composition and purposeful close-ups. You choose the shoe design, camera choreography, staging and timing. This is a fictional concept, not a real brand imitation.

MOTION: contrast a calm orbit and readable suspended layers with one decisive fast assembly. Let the shoe, materials and diagrams share a coherent space. Use only a few functional callouts at a time even though the construction is rich. Avoid turning the shoe into an abstract collection of blocks. End on the assembled shoe and "FLOW / 01" with a confident hold.

CONTENT: no invented performance percentages, endorsements, engineering claims or brand logos. Simple descriptive labels such as "KNIT UPPER", "MIDSOLE" and "OUTSOLE" are enough. No player controls in the frame.

SOUND: an original synthesized minimal electronic score, with restrained material sounds and a satisfying assembly hit. No narration. Build the visuals in code; no external footage or generated image assets. Deliver one complete playable animation.

Create a 20-second, 16:9 animated miniature coffee factory: a richly detailed isometric cutaway world that turns green coffee beans into one beautiful cup of coffee.

IDEA: Follow one small batch through a continuous, believable route: bean hopper, rotating roasting drum, cooling tray, grinder, then brewing into a cup. Keep the entire miniature world alive with conveyors, turning gears, valves, gauges, passing beans, steam, warm machinery and a few tiny workers. The pleasure is discovering small coordinated actions while still understanding where the coffee is going.

ART DIRECTION: a premium illustrated editorial miniature, warm ivory architecture, deep teal machinery, copper and terracotta accents, believable depth and soft shadows. Every station should have its own recognizable silhouette and functional details. Fill the scene with purposeful detail rather than repetitive icons. Keep the traveling coffee and final cup easy to follow. You choose the factory layout, camera choreography, transitions and exact timing.

MOTION: interconnected cause and effect. A batch lands, a mechanism responds, the next station starts. Show several secondary actions running at once without flattening them into equal visual importance. Use selective camera moves and moments of rest so the viewer can explore. Finish with the cup clearly visible and the factory still gently working behind it.

TEXT: a short opening title, "BEAN TO CUP", and at most five concise station labels. Do not add a dashboard, paragraph captions, invented statistics or on-screen player controls.

SOUND: an original synthesized playful mechanical score with restrained machine sounds and a satisfying pour at the end. No narration. Build the visuals in code; no external footage or generated image assets. Deliver one complete playable animation.

How does your phone know where you are? A 25-second GPS explainer for my science Instagram, playful but accurate. Square 1:1.

IDEA: A cute pink phone character on a cartoon Earth. Satellites send it timestamps; time becomes distance, distance becomes circles, and where they cross is the phone.

0–4s: cream paper background. The phone (white screen face, stick limbs) stands on a navy-and-teal globe. Top-left text types on: "How does your phone" then, in magenta, "know where you are?". A red question mark springs up above it.
4–8.5s: the globe shrinks to centre; a dashed orbit draws and six satellites pop on, each sending soft ping rings. A ruler marks "20,200 km". Text: "About 30 GPS satellites, 20,200 km up. Each keeps broadcasting where it is + the time from its atomic clock."
8.5–12.5s: text: "Your phone just listens. The signal flies at the speed of light..." A glowing red packet travels to the phone while a slow-mo timer rolls 0.000 s to 0.070 s. Text: "It arrived 0.07 s late. 0.07 s × 300,000 km/s = 21,000 km away." A yellow badge "21,000 km" pops on the beam.
12.5–18.5s: zoom out; satellites labelled A, B, C. "1 satellite: you're somewhere on this circle." A magenta range circle grows through the phone. "2 satellites: one of two spots." Second circle; two crossings, one marked "?". "3 satellites: found you." Third circle; all meet at the phone.
18.5–22s: close on the phone. Status bar: "phone clock: off by 0.000001 s"; a yellow wedge of uncertainty spreads and the phone looks worried. Text: "Catch: your phone's clock isn't atomic. Off by a millionth of a second = 300 m wrong." Then: "So a 4th satellite joins in and the phone solves for its own clock error." Four beams converge, the wedge shrinks, the bar flips yellow: "phone clock: corrected". The phone smiles.
22–25s: wide; a yellow map pin on the phone, satellites pulsing dots down their sightlines on the beat. Text: "Time becomes distance. Distance becomes a dot on your map." Hold.

LOOK: cream paper #F5EFEB, light grain, tiny scattered crosshairs. Navy #131E3D oceans and type, teal #2B5B7D continents with halftone edge, magenta #E64980 phone, signals and circles, yellow #F5BF38 labels, badges, pin. Flat vector, thin strokes, bold geometric sans with key words tinted. 

MOTION: quick 0.3–0.5s changes, then 1.5–2s rests to read. Smooth zooms instead of cuts; elastic overshoot on character and badges.

SOUND: mid-tempo lo-fi beat with warm electric piano and soft snare. Typewriter clicks for text, pops for satellites and badges, a hum and fast counter ticks during the signal flight, a ding on arrival, rising tones per circle, a buzz on the clock error, a happy chime on "corrected". No narration.

Create a 15-second motion design showreel, 16:9, for a studio called FORM / FIELD. Make it feel like the opening of a design conference: confident, surprising, and carefully art-directed.

IDEA: One small vermilion ball transforms from a physical object into a typographic element, a particle system, a spatial orbit, and finally the dot in the studio wordmark. Make the transformations feel connected, not a slideshow of unrelated demos. You choose the staging, camera, transitions, and timing.

LOOK: editorial Swiss typography with oversized grotesque letterforms, precise small technical labels, off-black, warm cream, vermilion and cobalt. Strong negative space and deliberate scale contrast. Avoid generic neon dashboards, stock icons, gradients and decorative glow.

MOTION: demonstrate real squash and stretch, kinetic typography, staggered patterns, depth and perspective, and a fast tunnel or camera move. Contrast very fast accents with readable holds and one moment of near silence. Integrate the techniques into a coherent visual idea. End on FORM / FIELD and hold long enough to read it.

SOUND: synthesize an electronic score and synchronized action sounds, with distinct hits for the typography and a satisfying final landing. No voiceover. No external video or generated image assets. Deliver a complete playable animation.

Create a seamless 10-second abstract 3D motion design loop, square 1:1, suitable for a premium design studio's Instagram grid.

IDEA: A sculptural machine made of interlocking rings, a central sphere, and a precise array of smaller objects repeatedly transforms between an ordered orbital system and an unexpected architectural sculpture. Invent a visually convincing mechanism rather than random spinning shapes. The final pose and motion must join the first without a visible jump.

LOOK: bold sculptural geometry, brushed silver or ceramic surfaces, cobalt and vermilion accents, a warm cream environment. Convey volume with coherent lighting, occlusion, perspective and cast shadows. Use a confident composition and restrained typography, if any. Avoid generic starfields, neon glow and stock dashboard graphics. You decide the exact geometry and camera choreography.

MOTION: layered but purposeful movement with controlled acceleration, clear depth ordering, and at least one satisfying transformation that reads immediately. Preserve a strong silhouette throughout. The loop should reward repeated viewing, and the camera must also loop seamlessly.

SOUND: an original synthesized rhythmic score with synchronized mechanical accents, also looping cleanly. No voiceover. No external video or generated image assets. Deliver a complete playable animation.
