Asset referencing: @image1 is the first frame of this video: a dark old movie-theatre lobby, a brass-framed poster case on a red velvet wall with every bulb around it unlit, the premiere poster inside in deep shadow. @image2 is the last frame of this video: the same poster case with every bulb around the frame glowing warm and the poster brightly lit, showing THE PHOTO above the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" and the line "PREMIERING TONIGHT". Together they define the lobby, the poster case, the bulbs, the poster, the photo, the lettering, the carpet and rope stands, and the framing. ATTACHED IMAGES ARE MANDATORY AND FINAL: the attached frames outrank every word written below them. Wherever the images and this text disagree, follow the images. THE PHOTO on the poster and its lettering are exactly as in @image2 and never change. THE PREMIERE — this is the whole point of the film: the lights come on for the premiere. With a soft electric click, the round bulbs around the brass frame switch on one by one, running in order around the frame starting at the bottom left corner, up the left side, across the top and down the right side, until the whole frame glows. As the last bulb lights, the poster case lights up from inside and THE PHOTO and the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" appear bright and sharp, the warm light spilling onto the velvet wall and the red carpet. Summary: a birthday premiere in one unbroken take in which the marquee bulbs around a theatre poster switch on one by one until the poster lights up, revealing the visitor's photo above the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY". Timeline: 0–1s — The framing of @image1: the dark lobby, every bulb unlit, the poster in shadow. 1–6s — The bulbs switch on one by one in order around the frame, each with a soft click and a warm glow, the brass catching more light with every bulb. 6–7.5s — The last bulb lights and the poster case lights up from inside; THE PHOTO and "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" appear bright and sharp. 7.5–10s — As in @image2: the whole frame glowing, the poster fully lit, the camera gliding very slowly closer, a faint warm shimmer on the bulbs. Notes: once a bulb is on it stays on for the rest of the film and never flickers off. The poster, THE PHOTO and the lettering never move, change or animate — only the light on them changes. The only words are "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" and "PREMIERING TONIGHT" on the poster. No people are in the lobby. The camera is on a smooth slow push-in the whole time, and the film runs as one unbroken take with no cuts. No subtitles. No BGM; generate only environmental sounds and action sounds: a soft electric click and a faint hum as each bulb switches on, rising into a warm steady buzz as the frame fills with light, a low deeper thunk as the poster case lights, and the distant murmur of an excited theatre crowd, to the last frame.

How it was made

The lit poster

Aspect9:16

ASSET MAP — every reference is bound here and cited by tag below:
@avatar — THE PHOTO. This is the visitor's chosen avatar; its portrait picture is THE PHOTO, and it is the image on the premiere poster exactly as it is.

PHOTO LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: THE PHOTO appears on the poster exactly as the picture of @avatar — the same people or animals, the same faces, the same expressions, the same clothes, the same background and the same composition, as if the real photograph had been printed as the poster image. Nothing in it is redrawn, restyled, beautified or replaced.

ATTACHED IMAGES ARE MANDATORY AND FINAL: the attached image outranks every word written below it. Wherever the image and this text disagree, follow the image.

THE POSTER — this is the whole point of the picture: in the lobby of a classic old movie theatre, a tall glass-fronted poster case with a polished brass frame hangs on a dark red velvet wall. Inside it is a premiere movie poster: THE PHOTO fills the upper two thirds of the poster, and beneath it, in big bold cream capitals, is the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY", spelled exactly like that, with a thin line of small cream capitals under it reading "PREMIERING TONIGHT"; nothing else is written anywhere. The poster case is not lit yet — the lobby is dim, the poster readable only in soft ambient light — and a row of round bare-bulb marquee lights runs around the brass frame, all of them still dark.

Task: photograph this moment as the opening frame of a birthday premiere video.

Framing: vertical 9:16, the camera at eye level a few steps back, the whole poster case centred and sharp, a strip of red carpet and a brass rope stand in the lower part of the frame.

Light: dim, warm, cinematic lobby light, deep red and brass tones, the glass reflecting a few soft warm points of light.

Look: crisp real phone-camera footage, true colours, sharp focus on THE PHOTO and the title. Photographic, not illustrated.

The dark lobby

Aspect9:16

ASSET MAP — every reference is bound here and cited by tag below:
@image1 — THE SCENE. This defines the theatre lobby, the red velvet wall, the brass-framed poster case, the poster with its photo and title, the red carpet, the brass rope stands, the camera angle and the framing, all of which stay exactly as they are.

SCENE LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: everything in @image1 stays exactly as it is — the same poster case in the same size and place, the same poster with the same photo and the same lettering, the same velvet wall, the same carpet and rope stands, the same camera position and the same framing. Only the light changes, as described below.

ATTACHED IMAGES ARE MANDATORY AND FINAL for the objects and the framing — but NOT for the light: the light in @image1 is the light of a later moment and must not be copied.

THE POWER IS OFF — this is the whole point of the picture: it is a few seconds before the premiere and the power to the poster case is switched off. The lobby is almost completely dark, like a room at night with the lights out. Every bulb around the brass frame is dead — dark grey glass, no glow, no reflection of a filament, not one of them lit. The poster case has no light behind it at all, so the poster is a dark, dim rectangle: THE PHOTO and the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" are barely visible, a faint silhouette in very low, cool blue-grey light coming only from an exit sign far off to the side. The velvet wall and the carpet are nearly black. The only highlights in the whole picture are a thin cool edge of light along the brass frame and the tops of the rope stands. Overall the image is very dark, about three stops darker than @image1.

Task: photograph this moment in the same framing as @image1, as the opening frame of a birthday premiere video, just before the lights come on.

Look: real phone-camera footage taken in a dark room, true colours, visible low-light grain, deep shadows, nothing glowing. Photographic, not illustrated.

ATTACHED IMAGES ARE MANDATORY AND FINAL: the attached frames outrank every word written below them. Wherever the images and this text disagree, follow the images. THE PHOTO on the poster and its lettering are exactly as in @image2 and never change.

THE PREMIERE — this is the whole point of the film: the lights come on for the premiere. With a soft electric click, the round bulbs around the brass frame switch on one by one, running in order around the frame starting at the bottom left corner, up the left side, across the top and down the right side, until the whole frame glows. As the last bulb lights, the poster case lights up from inside and THE PHOTO and the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" appear bright and sharp, the warm light spilling onto the velvet wall and the red carpet.

Summary: a birthday premiere in one unbroken take in which the marquee bulbs around a theatre poster switch on one by one until the poster lights up, revealing the visitor's photo above the title "HAPPY BIRTHDAY".

Timeline:

0–1s — The framing of @image1: the dark lobby, every bulb unlit, the poster in shadow.

1–6s — The bulbs switch on one by one in order around the frame, each with a soft click and a warm glow, the brass catching more light with every bulb.

6–7.5s — The last bulb lights and the poster case lights up from inside; THE PHOTO and "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" appear bright and sharp.

7.5–10s — As in @image2: the whole frame glowing, the poster fully lit, the camera gliding very slowly closer, a faint warm shimmer on the bulbs.

Notes: once a bulb is on it stays on for the rest of the film and never flickers off. The poster, THE PHOTO and the lettering never move, change or animate — only the light on them changes. The only words are "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" and "PREMIERING TONIGHT" on the poster. No people are in the lobby. The camera is on a smooth slow push-in the whole time, and the film runs as one unbroken take with no cuts.

No subtitles.
No BGM; generate only environmental sounds and action sounds: a soft electric click and a faint hum as each bulb switches on, rising into a warm steady buzz as the frame fills with light, a low deeper thunk as the poster case lights, and the distant murmur of an excited theatre crowd, to the last frame.
