Prompt workflow shared for generating first-person GoPro surfing frames with GPT

techhalla · x · 2026-09-15

techhalla shares a complete prompt workflow for generating a realistic first-person GoPro/action-cam still of a surfer paddling out:

• Uses GPT (Flare) text-to-image with a DIRECTIVE-style prompt specifying a prone-paddle POV frame with spray on the lens.
• The key is locking perspective exactly: camera low on the waxed deck, looking forward along the centerline, fisheye horizon, visible stringer and rails.
• Hard constraints on arms: black neoprene sleeves entering from the bottom corners, wet hands gripping the rails in a swim-stroke pose.
• Reusable takeaway: for immersive POV imagery, sectioned instructions (perspective/body/lighting) give far more control than a single vague description.
