Higgsfield Fight Scenes Skill

What this skill does

Crafts production-ready fight scene and action sequence video prompts and routes them to the best Higgsfield model for cinematic combat output. On request, it assembles the full parameter set, surfaces the credit cost, and — after explicit user confirmation — generates the asset via the opt-in generation flow.

This skill masters translating explosive action choreography into vivid video prompts with cinematic precision, visceral impact, and rhythm that feels both dynamic and purposeful. It covers unarmed combat (15+ martial arts disciplines), weapon combat, fantasy/elemental fights, superhero battles, chase sequences, and multi-combatant coordination.

Model routing

Primary and fallback video models

	cinematic_studio_3_0 (primary)	kling3_0 (fallback)
Rationale	Dedicated cinematic pipeline; default for all fight scenes and action video	Use only when primary is unavailable, or user wants mode / sound control
Aspect ratios	16:9, 9:16, 1:1	16:9, 9:16, 1:1
Duration	4–15 s (continuous range)	3–15 s (continuous range; minimum is 3 s)
Tunable params	None — pass only aspect_ratio and duration	mode {std, pro, 4k}; sound {on, off}
Media roles	image, start_image, end_image	start_image, end_image only

Important note on kling3_0 mode: 4k: The 4k option is a mode enum (a generation pipeline variant), NOT a claim about 4K output-file resolution. No video model in this skill outputs 4K files. Max resolution for fight-scene video generation is determined by the model's internal pipeline, not by the mode value.

Routing rule: Use cinematic_studio_3_0 by default. Only fall back to kling3_0 when (1) the primary model is unavailable, or (2) the user explicitly accepts kling3_0's constraints after being told what they give up: no image media role (only start_image/end_image), and a different cinematic pipeline aesthetic. Gains: mode control (std/pro/4k generation variant) and sound option. If the user has not been informed of these trade-offs, stay on cinematic_studio_3_0 and let them decide — never switch silently.

MODEL-06 directive: If a parameter is rejected at generation time, call higgsfield:models_explore with the target model name to re-verify the live schema. Full parameter tables: references/model-specs.md.

Per-platform quick rule

Vertical 9:16 for TikTok / Reels / Shorts (hook in 2 s); 16:9 for YouTube and LinkedIn; 1:1 for Instagram feed (keep combatants center-weighted). Full per-platform table: references/model-specs.md.

Prompt-building workflow

1. Gather intent — Confirm with the user: combat style (martial art, weapon type, fantasy, superhero), setting/environment, tone (gritty, stylized, anime, cinematic), combatant descriptions, target platform, aspect ratio, and desired duration.

2. Select model — Apply the routing table above. Choose cinematic_studio_3_0 by default; select kling3_0 only when a routing trigger applies.

3. Build the prompt — Use the craft principles in the references below:

   • Opening hook (2-second action attention-capture technique) from references/hooks.md
   • Choreography language, combat style, camera work, impact effects, environments from references/choreography.md
   • Master template and worked fight-scene prompts from references/examples.md

4. Present for review — Show the assembled prompt and all parameters to the user for review and refinement before any generation call. The user must approve the prompt text, model, aspect ratio, and duration.

Opt-in generation

Generation costs Higgsfield credits and requires explicit user confirmation before any generate call is made. This skill never auto-generates.

Full step-by-step flow (confirmation gate, balance/cost surface, generate → poll → display): ../../shared/generation-flow.md

This skill's primary model: cinematic_studio_3_0

Media upload: Conditional — only when the user supplies a start_image or end_image reference. This skill is NOT a mandatory-I2V skill; T2V is the default path. When the user provides a reference image, run the higgsfield:media_upload → higgsfield:media_confirm atomic pair before generating.

Tool signatures: ../../shared/mcp-tools.md
