Run the same idea through both
Pick a prompt, make it with each model and keep the one you like. The clips were made with Cirrela to show the idea, not necessarily with these two models.
Uma silhueta sozinha diante de um túnel infinito de neons quadrados, travelling lento para a frente, névoa volumétrica, estrondo cinematográfico
Um faroleiro observa uma tempestade se aproximar, ondas escuras batendo nas pedras, grande plano cinematográfico, vento e trovões ao longe
Publicidade de luxo: um frasco de perfume de vidro esculpido gira devagar sobre uma pedra preta molhada, gotas d’água em um fino raio de luz dourada, névoa à deriva, lente macro, sem texto nem logo, som cinematográfico profundo
Animação 3D caprichada: um pequeno robô simpático monta com cuidado um cubo de vidro luminoso em um estúdio pastel limpo, iluminação global suave, órbita lenta de câmera, pequenos ruídos mecânicos alegres
