The prompt sets out four equal panels: the owner leaves, the pet turns to the empty house, the pet takes over the couch, and the pet sits perfectly composed when the door opens. It comes from the story-to-comic section of OpenAI’s guide, which says to describe one clear, action-focused visual beat per panel. To adapt it, keep the panel-by-panel structure and rewrite each beat for your own story.

Prompt
Create a short vertical comic-style reel with 4 equal-sized panels. Panel 1: The owner leaves through the front door. The pet is framed in the window behind them, small against the glass, eyes wide, paws pressed high, the house suddenly quiet. Panel 2: The door clicks shut. Silence breaks. The pet slowly turns toward the empty house, posture shifting, eyes sharp with possibility. Panel 3: The house transformed. The pet sprawls across the couch like it owns the place, crumbs nearby, sunlight cutting across the room like a spotlight. Panel 4: The door opens. The pet is seated perfectly by the entrance, alert and composed, as if nothing happened.
What it produces
Asks for a vertical four-panel comic about a pet's secret life while its owner is away.
