# Space Opera Crawl: motion graphics style

> The classic space-opera opening: the title shrinks away into a starfield, then golden story text crawls upward in steep perspective. It fades into infinity; for epic intros, launch teasers, game trailers and product announcements.

## Prompt (replace [TEXT] with your text)

```text
Create a space-opera opening crawl for [TEXT]. Black starfield with fine white stars that twinkle faintly. First, [TEXT] appears in heavy gold capitals larger than the frame and recedes smoothly into the distance, fast at first and slowing as it shrinks to a point. As it vanishes, a block of gold text rises from the bottom edge on a plane tilted steeply back: a small chapter number, the heading [TEXT] in larger capitals, then two short justified paragraphs of original dramatic story text in a bold sans. The plane scrolls upward at a slow constant speed, the lines shrinking and fading as they approach a vanishing point near the top. Calm and grand; fade out and loop.
```

- Justified bold sans paragraphs tilted back on a steep perspective plane
- Text crawls upward at a slow constant speed and fades into the distance
- Chapter number and heading set above the story text
