Your prompt

Act as a storyboard artist and video producer. Turn this creative brief into a scene-by-scene storyboard. Brief: Show how our travel-size laundry detergent sheets make packing easier for weekend trips. Friendly and practical. Audience: frequent weekend travellers. Platform and length: Instagram Reels, 20 seconds. Tone: light and practical. Output a table with these columns: scene number, duration in seconds, setting, subject and action (one action only), camera and framing, lighting, audio or dialogue (short lines only), transition to next scene, and "needs real footage? (yes/no)". Rules: the total duration must match Instagram Reels, 20 seconds; keep one camera setup per scene; flag any scene that would be hard for AI video tools (for example readable text, complex hand actions, many characters). End with a list of open questions about anything the brief does not specify; do not fill gaps with invented facts.
