A quiet product film in a coastal ceramic studio at dawn. A handmade ivory cup with a cobalt blue rim stands on pale limestone beside a linen cloth. A stripe of warm sunlight slowly crosses its textured glaze as the camera makes one smooth low dolly-in. Fine steam rises from the cup. Natural materials, restrained editorial composition, realistic light, no writing, no logo, no cuts. Sound: soft sea breeze through an open window and a distant gull, no music, no dialogue.
A potter turns the cup
A close view of hands, ceramic texture and a slow turn on the workbench.

Close-up in the same coastal ceramic studio: an adult potter wearing a plain cream linen shirt gently turns an ivory cup with a cobalt blue rim on a wooden workbench. Only the hands and sleeves are in frame. One continuous, slow side tracking shot follows the curve of the cup, morning light reveals small irregularities in the handmade glaze. Calm tactile product cinematography. No writing, no logo, no cuts. Sound: a quiet ceramic scrape against wood and a light ocean breeze, no music.
The terrace and the sea
The view rises from a sunlit table toward the water, with linen and leaves moving in the breeze.

An editorial lifestyle shot on a small terrace overlooking a calm blue sea. An ivory ceramic cup with a cobalt blue rim, folded cream linen and a branch of olive leaves sit on a pale stone table. The camera slowly rises from the cup to reveal the horizon. A light breeze moves the linen edge and the leaves. Warm early morning light, believable textures, one continuous shot, no writing or logos. Sound: gentle waves and moving leaves, no music, no dialogue.

Choose how Wan 3.0 starts the scene

Wan 3.0 can start with text alone. Name the subject and one visible action, then describe the camera movement and sound. Keep a short clip focused on a single scene.
An image → an opening composition
Give Wan 3.0 a first frame to establish the composition. Add a last frame to guide the ending, and describe the movement between them. Check that product details survive the motion.
References → visual and audio direction
Wan 3.0 accepts image, video and audio references in a separate mode. Explain what each contributes: the subject, setting, movement or sound. Keep keyframes out of this request.
Put Wan 3.0 to work
A product in changing light
Use Wan 3.0 to test a product in moving light. The ceramic studio brief focuses on glaze and steam. For a real campaign, supply your own first frame and inspect the defining details.
A short process detail
Wan 3.0 can explore one simple action: a cup turning or a hand placing an object. Keep the movement small enough to inspect within five seconds.
A scene around the object
Use Wan 3.0 for a camera reveal around a product. Specify the focal point and the background movement so you can check the finished clip against a clear brief.

Before you generate with Wan 3.0
Keep input modes separate
Keep Wan 3.0 keyframes separate from references. When adding written context in reference mode, choose a document URL or a web link.
Check the source media
The model needs accessible media URLs. Check the current Wan API documentation for supported files and media limits before using your references.
Review the whole result
Watch the whole clip for changed lettering, hands or continuity. Use material you have rights to and follow Wan API’s content rules.
Treat each attempt as a new choice
Each generation is a new request. Review the quote before trying again, especially with video references.
