CHARACTER LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: The person in every shot is exactly the person in @image1. Preserve their facial identity, facial structure, eye shape and spacing, nose, mouth, exact skin tone, hairline, hairstyle, hair length, texture and colour, freckles and distinctive marks, apparent age, build and body proportions — identically, shot to shot. Preserve their gender presentation exactly as shown; do not masculinize, feminize or reinterpret it. Do not beautify, slim, de-age or restyle them. The attached image outranks every word below it: wherever the image and the text disagree, follow the image. Frame 1 is already in the scene — never a studio portrait, grey backdrop, or the attached still as an opening plate. Use they/them throughout. No other people. The person in every shot is exactly the person in @image1 — face, bone structure, silver-grey hair, age, body. The photo is identity only, not wardrobe. Do not keep the waffle robe or white tee. Do not give them black hair. WARDROBE: black ink-wash kimono, wide dripping sleeves, wrapped sash, barefoot. The garment is made of wet sumi ink and watercolor that keeps flowing. SETTING: a sheet of white xuan paper. No studio, no floor, no crowd. Real time, 15 seconds, 4:3. Frame 1 is already dancing — never a portrait plate. No slow motion. No on-screen text. One person only. Ink and watercolor bleed from feet, hands, sleeves, hair and every joint. Each step stains the paper. After 5s most of the white is already layered with strokes. Crimson, indigo and gold mix into the black from shot 3 onward. SHOT 1 (0–2.5s) Already mid-step. Weight shifts, arms flowing. Wet ink spreads under each foot. Sleeves throw black ribbons. Full body. SHOT 2 (2.5–5s) Axis changes, low arm sweeps, short spins. Sleeve ribbons blur into clouds. Paper heavily stained. Full body, slight handheld. SHOT 3 (5–7.5s) Rotations and arm spirals. Long ink trails. Crimson, indigo and gold enter the black. Full body. SHOT 4 (7.5–10s) Reverse spin, a short dance jump (not a hop in place), torso twist, another spin. Foreground splashes and airborne ribbons. Full body to medium. SHOT 5 (10–12.5s) The ink is now the world. Two rotations and a large sleeve sweep. They stay visible. No final pose yet. Camera does not pull back. SHOT 6 (12.5–15s) Final pose: weight on one leg, one arm high, opposite sleeve hanging in the air. Body freezes; ink and watercolor keep dripping. Slow constant-speed pullback. Ends as a living sumi-e: paper fibers, uneven bleeds, hand-drawn strokes. No intro, no walking, no mid-pose freeze before shot 6, no empty white paper after 5s, no dancer vanishing.
