Fruit Regrows
text-to-video
Any aspect ratio
Start with a photorealistic scene of a lemon, lime, and orange, each with a citrus leaf or two attached to their stems. The fruits become translucent colored glass, then shatter into colored crystals with a spray of fine juice. The colored crystals melt and then grow a citrus tree, which fruits with the same citrus fruit from the opening scene. It drops the fruit, and we are back to the opening image. Video is intended to seamlessly loop, to be used as the splash video on a landing page.

How to remix this template in Magic Hour
Open Magic Hour and go to Text-to-Video
- Navigate to Text-to-Video.
Start from the existing template
- Load the template from the gallery and use it as your base.
- Keep the structure of the prompt (scene description, style, movement) and only change what you need.
Edit the core prompt
Focus your text prompt on:- Subject – who or what is on screen (e.g., “a SaaS founder presenting a dashboard on a holographic screen”)
- Environment – where it’s happening (e.g., “modern co-working space at sunset, city skyline in the background”)
- Action – what is happening (e.g., “camera slowly pushes in as data visualizations animate around them”)
- Style – cinematic realism, anime, 3D, minimal line-art, vaporwave, etc.
- Mood & lighting – warm, high-contrast, moody, volumetric lighting, “magic hour” light, etc.
Generate and refine
- Generate a first version, watch it end-to-end, then refine your prompt to fix issues like pacing, clarity, or style consistency.
- Iterate by being explicit in your prompt about what should change (e.g., “shorter clip,” “closer camera,” “wider shot of the city,” “brighter colors”).
Chain with other Magic Hour tools (optional)
After you get your base video, you can enhance it with other Magic Hour products:- Add lip-synced dialogue with AI Talking Photo or Lip Sync
- Swap in specific faces for characters using Face Swap or Face Swap Video
- Upscale and clean the final video with Video Upscaler
- Auto-generate subtitles with Auto Subtitle Generator
Best-practice prompting for Text-to-Video
For time-constrained creators and teams, prompt quality is the difference between a rough demo and a production-ready asset. Use this structure:
1. One-sentence logline
“Cinematic shot of a founder walking through a neon-lit city, text overlays highlight a new AI product launch.”
2. Visual details
- Camera: “wide angle, slow dolly-in, smooth motion”
- Composition: “subject centered, city skyline in background, reflections on wet pavement”
- Style: “cinematic, high dynamic range, sharp, similar to premium tech advertising”
3. Brand & tone
- “Clean, modern, minimal color palette (deep blue, white, accent teal). Professional, confident mood.”
4. Motion & transitions
- “City lights slowly animate to life; overlay text fades in and out in sync with character movement.”
You can adapt this structure to virtually any vertical: SaaS, fintech, gaming, fashion, education, or internal company videos.

Combining this template with other Magic Hour workflows
To build richer pipelines and reusable systems:
Character consistency
- Generate recurring characters using AI Character Generator or Animated Characters Generator.
- Animate those characters in multiple scenes via Animation or Video-to-Video.
Face control & casting
- Insert yourself, your team, or your customers into any scene with Face Swap or Face Swap Video.
- Create GIF reactions and memes for social using Face Swap GIF or AI Meme Generator.
Style and branding
- Generate on-brand illustration systems with AI Illustration Generator or AI Logo Generator.
- Use these as visual references for your prompts so Text-to-Video sequences stay aligned with your brand.
Quality, polish, and post-production
- Sharpen and enhance any frame with AI Image Upscaler and Unblur Image.
- Fix or remove distracting elements in source images using AI Remover or Remove Object from Photo before turning them into motion.
Tips for teams, agencies, and startups
Build reusable prompt libraries
Treat prompts as assets. Keep a library of battle-tested prompts for:- “Hero product shot”
- “Explainer sequence”
- “Testimonial-style narrative”
- “Cinematic opener / cold open”
Standardize your creative system
- Define a consistent visual language (color, lighting, framing) using AI Background Generator, AI Fashion Generator, and AI Outfit Generator.
- Reuse this across Text-to-Video projects to make all your content recognizable.
Prototype fast, then refine
- Use short, low-commitment clips to explore ideas.
- Once an idea works, refine the prompt and upscale with Video Upscaler, then enhance key frames with AI Image Upscaler.
