In a single continuous shot with no scene cuts: [camera framing and move, e.g. slow handheld push-in at eye level] on [subject] in [location]. [Style, e.g. natural documentary realism]. [Lighting, e.g. low warm sun through a dusty window]. [Action, one or two beats, e.g. the potter lifts the bowl, turns it once and smiles]. Sound design: [ambient sounds], [one specific effect]. No dialogue. No music.

Replace everything in [square brackets] with your own details.

Tips

• Omni adds multiple shots by default; "single continuous shot" and "no scene cuts" are what keep it to one take.
• Three or four sentences beat a long list of adjectives.
