Molten chrome phone cools to glass
A molten chrome phone animation: liquid metal pours, shapes a phone and cools to black glass. Copy the prompt into Claude and render the MP4 free.
Liquid chrome pours into empty space on a grey seamless, gathers into a blob, springs into a slab and sharpens into a phone. It cools from mirror chrome to black glass while thermal windows read white-hot, orange, then blue. Three lenses bead up and lock before a hero shot with the brand.
Change the brand name, the metal tint (chrome or gold), warm, cool and amber thermal colours, and the studio seamless. The 9:16, 13-second film with sound suits phone and gadget launches on Reels, TikTok and Shorts.

What happens, beat by beat
- Real emission: white-yellow core down the stream neck and at impact, orange-red underside, dull red body. Where the hot slab touches the floor it lights the seamless orange.
- Cooling front (5.0 to 6.5 s): a horizontal front climbs base to top. Chrome with shallow waves above, black glass and graphite below, and on the front a ~10 px white-hot line with an orange-red halo…
- Write heat to a second render target (MRT) alongside colour so post can read temperature per pixel.
Light it like a black-glass product studio
- Procedural environment, no HDR. Reflections read an analytic studio: light-grey seamless floor, dark wall, black flags behind the lens, a hard strip right, a dim strip left, a thin line…
- Aimed strip and flag per shot. From the camera and the hero face normal, compute where that face mirrors in the rig and place a white strip beside a deep…
- Liquid shots get a front scrim and warm cards so chrome reads mirror-bright with orange in it. Glass shots drop the scrim so faces read deep black.
- Materials by region: chrome tinted by [metal colour] at roughness 0.15; once solid, near-black glass faces, a graphite frame (F0 ~0.22), polished lens rings, coated lens glass with a purple-to-green…
- Glossy floor: a distance-blurred mirrored reflection, soft shadow and contact AO.
How the prompt opens
Make a 13-second, 9:16 (1080x1920, 30 fps) product film with its own sound. A stream of liquid chrome pours into empty space on a grey studio seamless, gathers into a wobbling blob, springs into a slab, lands, sharpens into a phone, then cools from mirror chrome into black glass while small thermal-camera windows read it white-hot, then orange, then blue. The camera bump rises out of the metal last and three lenses bead up like droplets and lock. Fast macro cuts follow, then a hero shot with [your brand name, e.g. an invented phone called NOVA ONE].
