Vertical Story Beat For Social
A vertical single-take narrative moment with synchronized audio — for Reels, Shorts and TikTok storytelling rather than talking-head content.

Your prompt
Medium close-up, 50mm, vertical framing, of {{subject}}. They {{action}}, the pause carrying the whole beat before the movement resolves. The camera follows handheld with a small organic sway, staying close and slightly below eye level so the subject reads as the centre of their own story. Hard golden-hour light comes in low from behind at frame right, rimming the shoulders and hairline in hot amber and separating them cleanly from {{setting}}, which drops into warm shallow bokeh. A soft bounce opens the shadow side just enough to keep the eyes alive. Warm saturated colour with lifted blacks and gentle flare across the top of the frame. The mood is {{mood}}. Audio: the specific sound of the action, close and dry, over a warm ambient bed of the place itself. Aspect ratio: {{aspect-ratio}}.

Set the aspect ratio to portrait in the interface for social delivery. This is deliberately one beat rather than a sequence — for a multi-shot story, build each beat separately in Sora's storyboard and let it carry continuity between them, which works far better than trying to fit two moments into a single prompt. Sora has no negative prompt field, so describe empty space positively: an empty street rather than a street with no people. Add captions in your editor rather than asking Sora to render text.
