What kind of prompt works best for this effect?

A simple first frame with one main person or character usually gives the cleanest result. Clear context like “sleepy student in a library, close-up” helps the motion feel natural.

Does this effect work for animals or stylized characters?

Yes, as long as the subject has a readable face and a pose the model can build from. Cartoon mascots, pets, and humanoid characters can all work if the prompt is visually specific.

Is this better for comedy or more cinematic clips?

It leans naturally toward relatable, expressive moments, so comedy and reaction-style content tend to fit best. You can still push it in a more moody direction with lighting and setting details in the prompt.

Should I describe camera angle and shot type in the prompt?

Yes — details like close-up, medium shot, or seated waist-up can noticeably improve the result. Since the effect depends on visible expression, framing helps the AI prioritize the face and upper body.

Can I use a busy background or multiple people?

You can, but simpler scenes usually read better for this effect. If there are too many subjects competing for attention, the yawn moment may feel less clear.

Do I need to mention all three characters in my prompt for this effect to feel complete?

It helps if your first frame clearly suggests a small group, especially if you want the full reaction dynamic. A single subject can still work, but this effect reads most naturally when the prompt gives the AI a tired character and at least one visible observer.

Will this effect feel serious if I use a dramatic setting like sunset wilderness or a cinematic road scene?

The setting can look cinematic, but the performance usually stays light and conversational. If you use dramatic scenery, expect the background to add atmosphere while the main focus remains the sleepy moment and the humorous exchange around it.
