Write a subtle crying portrait video prompt

Purpose and limitations

This generates an emotional portrait video, not a fixed static filter. Identity, expression and tear placement may vary; it does not provide precise guaranteed facial editing.

Upload one portrait

Use one clear adult face with permission. A close-up in even light makes subtle expression direction easier.

Keep the emotion restrained

Start with the 5-second audio-enabled 480p default. Request gentle breathing, a quiet sob, moist eyes and one small tear while preserving the original face and setting.

Review the expression

Check face continuity, eyes and tear motion. Save the result from your task history once generation completes.

English prompt example

This editable English default follows public vendor guidance on reference roles, short actions and camera direction. Keep motion simple first, then adjust the theme or emotion based on your generated result.

Animate the supplied portrait into a 5-second realistic emotional close-up. Preserve the same person, facial proportions, hairstyle, clothing, lighting and background from the image. Keep the camera steady at eye level and the face clearly visible. Begin with a calm expression and a small natural blink. The eyebrows draw together slightly, the lower lip trembles gently, and the eyes become glossy. A single small tear forms below one eye and slowly rolls down the cheek. End with a quiet breath and a soft, subdued expression. Use subtle breathing and minimal head movement, continuous motion and natural skin texture. No facial reshaping, exaggerated open-mouth sobbing, streams of water, melted features, rapid camera movement, scene changes, added hands, extra people, text or captions. Generate subtle audible breathing, one soft restrained sob and quiet room ambience, synchronized with the visible expression. No dialogue, music, loud wailing or dramatic sound effects.

Input and result checklist

• Use one clear adult portrait with permission as the first frame; keep the eyes unobstructed.
• Default: 5 seconds, 480p, audio enabled. Request gentle breathing, a quiet sob and soft ambience, with no dialogue or music; preserve background, clothing and facial proportions.
• Start with restrained motion and review the actual output before sharing. Completed videos remain charged even when creative results differ.
