Teladoc Video Example
Project Description
This proof of concept demonstrates a rapid, AI-assisted workflow for recreating and extending the typographic treatment style seen in the Teladoc campaign video intro. Using Veo for video generation, After Effects for compositing and roto work, the project showcases how to produce high-quality brand extensions.
Veo 3 Video Generation Prompts
Nurse Walks Through Sunlit Curved Hallway
🎬 Final Veo Prompt: Nurse Walks Through Sunlit Curved Hallway, Makes Eye Contact, and Speaks to Camera — with Naturalistic Cinematic Look
A cinematic wide-angle shot of a brunette female nurse in her early 30s walking thoughtfully through a modern, gently curved hospital hallway. The corridor is architecturally clean and minimal — matte white walls, muted gray carpeted flooring, and a full wall of tall windows along the curve. Soft morning sunlight streams in at a high angle, casting long diagonal highlights and shadows across the floor only. The light should not directly illuminate the nurse's face or body — she remains softly shaded, with realistic ambient lighting that gently contours her face without flattening it. The space feels calm, professional, and quietly alive with light.
Outside the windows, soft-focus shapes of distant buildings, treetops, or skyline details are clearly visible in the morning light — rendered with natural depth, clarity, and subtle atmospheric haze. The sky is pale blue, and the shadows are cool and diffuse, suggesting a crisp, early day.
The nurse wears clean, fitted blue scrubs and holds a tablet or iPad loosely at her right side. Her left arm hangs naturally — not in her pocket — and her posture is upright, relaxed, and confident. She begins farther back in the hallway, allowing time to establish distance and environment before slowly approaching the camera.
She walks diagonally past the camera, which is offset slightly to the left. At the start, her gaze is directed just past the camera — calm and focused, not engaging yet. As she moves forward, her eyes gradually shift to meet the camera directly. In the final seconds, she delivers her line with quiet clarity, saying:
"Teladoc Health is defining care for a new era."
Her voice is confident, warm, and grounded — emotionally present, not overly stylized or dramatic.
🎥 Camera & Focus:
• Wide cinematic frame (2.39:1 aspect ratio)
• Smooth dolly shot, tracking backward from just left of center
• Nurse begins far away and approaches slowly — never gets uncomfortably close
• True slow motion (120+ fps), played back for fluidity
• Extremely shallow depth of field — only the nurse is in sharp focus; hallway, windows, and sunlight blur subtly
• Lens behavior: natural falloff, soft edges, subtle bokeh — avoid digital sharpness
🎞️ Color Grading:
• Neutral-cool daylight tones with a subtle, desaturated palette
• Soft warmth in skin tones, especially in the cheeks and nose — natural variation, no digital smoothing
• Architectural whites are muted and clean; carpeting stays cool gray
• No teal-orange bias — color grade should feel restrained, filmic, and unprocessed
• Add gentle film grain and matte finish — avoid digital gloss or contrast-heavy looks
• Sunlight adds texture to floor and walls without overly bright highlights
🔊 Sound Design:
• Muted, cushioned footfalls on carpet
• Subtle hallway room tone — quiet and insulated
• Clean, realistic voice recording — no reverb or over-processing
• No music — only ambient realism
Doctor Walking Through Hallway
🎬 Veo Prompt: Doctor Walking Through Hallway (Cinematic, Casual Confidence)
Prompt:
A cinematic wide shot of a male doctor in his early 40s walking down a bright, modern hospital hallway. The corridor features tall vertical windows along the right side, casting long soft-edged shadows across the cool-toned floor. The doctor wears a crisp white lab coat over a light blue button-down shirt and dark navy slacks, but his energy is casual and warm. He walks with relaxed confidence toward the camera, one hand in his pocket, the other holding a tablet loosely at his side.
His expression is thoughtful but upbeat — a faint, natural smile appears as he walks, as though he's greeting a colleague off-camera. The overall feeling is welcoming and grounded, with a sense of clarity and quiet optimism.
🎥 Camera & Focus:
• Wide landscape shot (cinematic aspect ratio, 2.39:1)
• Slow, steady dolly shot tracking backward as the doctor approaches
• Extremely shallow depth of field — the doctor is sharp while the background windows and hallway gently blur into soft focus
• Soft natural bokeh from outside the windows
• Subtle depth layering separates the subject from the architecture
🎞️ Color Grading (Kodak Vision3 Look):
• Cool daylight tones with gentle teal shadows
• Natural skin warmth and subtle highlights on the lab coat
• Muted overall palette with medium-low contrast
• Fine-grain film texture and organic softness in edge detail
• Smooth tonal transitions with no harsh blacks or blown-out whites
🔊 Sound Design (Optional):
• Quiet ambient hallway sounds: soft shoe squeaks, HVAC hum, distant intercom murmur
• No music — the moment feels calm, focused, and real

Note on Original Campaign
While referencing Teladoc's original video, I noticed an animation error — a misaligned duplicate layer that breaks the illusion. The new versions shown above, improve on that execution with more accurate compositing and edge cleanup.
