CHARACTER LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: the person 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. Preserve their gender presentation exactly as shown. Photocopy their hair, eyes, skin, outfit and accessories exactly as in @image1. Do not beautify, slim, de-age or restyle them. Do not change the hair or the outfit. @image1 is identity and wardrobe — only their scale changes. No other people in frame. Use they / their / them only. SUBJECT LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: Preserve the subject in @image1 exactly. If it is a person: their exact face, facial features, hairstyle, skin tone, build and gender presentation stay unchanged — only their scale changes. Do not beautify, restyle or alter identity in any way. @image1 is a REFERENCE still. Do not paste it as the opening frame. Do not open on a studio-grey headshot. CONTINUOUS MOTION REQUIRED: Real, visible physical motion for almost the entire 12 seconds — but the opening 2 seconds prioritize CLARITY over speed, so a first-time viewer immediately understands both the craft and the scale. SCENE: The subject, shrunk to a few centimeters tall, works at a tiny wooden bookbinding desk tucked into the gap between two real, full-sized books leaning against each other, their towering spines and pages framing the scene on both sides — the scale contrast unmistakable from the first frame. A tiny pot of glue, a miniature awl and a needle and thread sit on the desk. Warm desk-lamp light. 0-2s: ESTABLISHING SHOT — wide, clear view: the subject sits at the tiny desk stitching the pages of a small handmade book together with a needle and thread, the two giant books clearly visible looming on either side. Camera slowly pushes in, making both the craft (bookbinding) and the scale obvious immediately. 2-4s: They finish stitching the spine, set down the needle, and carefully brush glue along the book’s spine with a tiny brush, focused and precise. WOW MOMENT — TIME FREEZE + ORBIT (4-6.5s): They lift the finished tiny book and open its cover. As the pages begin to flutter open, everything suddenly FREEZES — the pages suspended mid-flutter catching warm light, tiny dust motes glittering around the subject. The camera performs a slow, cinematic 180-degree orbit around the frozen book and subject, revealing the two giant books towering on either side from multiple angles, shallow depth of field. This freeze holds for roughly 2 seconds. 6.5-7s: TIME RESUMES at full speed — the pages settle open, the tiny book now fully assembled in their hands. 7-9.5s: They close the book gently, walk it to the base of one giant book, and lean it upright directly against it — a small, complete, unmistakably-a-book object standing next to a real book, the scale payoff instantly clear. 9.5-12s: They step back, dust off their hands, and give a proud, satisfied smile toward camera, warm lamp light around them. SCALE REALISM: The giant books’ paper texture, cover material and page edges, and the tiny desk’s wood grain must all read at true scale relative to the tiny subject — every texture enormous next to them. Match lighting and color grade between the subject, the tiny book and the giant books throughout so the whole shot reads as one real photograph, not a composite. Frame wide enough that the establishing shot, the stitching, the freeze-orbit, and the final side-by-side book comparison all stay clearly visible. AUDIO: Generate synchronized natural audio for this scene — quiet thread pulling and stitching sounds, soft brush strokes, a gentle page flutter, near-silence during the freeze, then a soft whoosh as pages settle, and a satisfied contented sigh at the end. No music, no voiceover, no narration. No on-screen text, no watermark, no subtitles.

MODEL: Seedance 2.5 — use this model specifically. Do NOT use any other model for this generation. FORMAT: 9:16 (vertical) QUALITY: High-fidelity, 4K render, sharp detail, no compression artifacts CHARACTER LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: The character in every shot is exactly the person shown in @image1 — same face, facial features, hairstyle, skin tone, build and gender presentation throughout all 3 shots. No identity drift between shots. Do not beautify, slim, de-age or restyle them. Refer to them only as they/them in this prompt. @image1 is identity only — face, hair, skin — not the sunny café, not the cobblestone patio, not a seated still. Photocopy the person from @image1 into a rainy city bus-stop scene. ASSET MAP: @image1 — the character. Tell the following story in exactly 3 shots, same character throughout, with a clear visual beginning, twist and ending — never an ambiguous or faded-out close. STORY: The character stands alone at a city bus stop as rain suddenly starts pouring — everyone around them opens an umbrella, but they have none and huddle miserably under the tiny stop roof, getting splashed anyway. A stranger nearby silently steps closer and holds their umbrella out over them instead, sharing it without a word. They look up, surprised, then smile — the two end up walking off together down the street under the one shared umbrella, laughing, just as the rain eases and warm light spills from a café window ahead. STYLE: Warm, relatable live-action realism, soft naturalistic lighting, handheld documentary-style camera energy. Continuous real motion. Never freeze on the reference still. No on-screen text, no subtitles, no logos, no title card. AUDIO (native, synced, no music, no voiceover, no narration): rain pattering on pavement and the stop roof, city ambient noise, footsteps, the rustle of an umbrella opening, a warm shared laugh at the end. SHOT 1 (0-6s): Establish the character clearly at the bus stop in pouring rain. Handheld 35mm, medium-wide then push in. Rain starts hard in the first second — wet asphalt, droplets, people around them already sheltered under umbrellas. They have none. They huddle under the tiny stop roof, shoulders up, getting splashed anyway. The problem is immediately obvious. Crowd extras under umbrellas are background only. Face readable. SHOT 2 (6-12s): The twist. A stranger steps in from frame-left; their umbrella enters frame and tilts to cover them too (fabric rustle). Close enough to read their face: surprise, then a genuine warm smile. Rain still heavy. Handheld, eye-level. The stranger is a real second person sharing the umbrella — keep @image1's face locked on the character. SHOT 3 (12-18s): Resolution. Both walk together down the wet street under the one shared umbrella, relaxed and laughing (heard, not voiced as dialogue). Rain visibly eases. Warm golden light from a café window ahead. Handheld follow, then a clear last beat: they keep walking into that light — a finished ending, not a fade-out, not a still.

@image1 is LANA — photocopy their exact face and hair exactly as in @image1. IGNORE the clothes and accessories in @image1. Eyes visible. Lana MOVES. @image2 is the OUTFIT. Photocopy every garment, colour, fabric and accessory exactly as in @image2, worn in motion. Never add garments that are not in @image2. NEVER a studio cyclorama. 10-second 9:16. Ultra-real 35mm street fashion. Busy New York — yellow cabs, pedestrians, lights. LANA is ON the CROSSWALK (white stripes), walking toward camera mid-stride. The @image2 outfit moves with the stride. Crowd and traffic are BEATS. [TIMELINE — 10 SECONDS] 0–2s: Lana steps onto the crosswalk, the @image2 outfit moving, NYC behind. 2–6s: Walks toward camera on the stripes. Cabs. People around Lana. 6–10s: Closer, slight head turn, outfit still moving. Designed hold. Audio: city, footsteps, horns far. No lyrics.

CHARACTER LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: The character in every shot is exactly the person shown in @image1 — same face, facial features, hairstyle, skin tone, build and gender presentation throughout all 3 shots. No identity drift between shots. Do not beautify, slim, de-age or restyle the face or hair. @image1 is identity only — face, hair, skin, necklace — not the sunny café, not the cobblestone patio, not a seated-at-a-table still, not a teacup, not a woven handbag. Photocopy the person from @image1 onto a city sidewalk as a street musician. ASSET MAP: @image1 — the character. Tell the following story in exactly 3 shots, same character throughout, with a clear visual beginning, twist and ending — never an ambiguous or faded-out close. STORY: A street musician sits on a sidewalk corner playing guitar to an almost empty street, their open case holding just a few scattered coins. People walk past without stopping, and the musician glances at the low afternoon sun, visibly discouraged, considering packing up. Then a small child breaks away from a nearby parent, walks up, drops a coin into the case, and starts spontaneously dancing to the rhythm — clumsy, joyful, completely unselfconscious. A couple of passersby stop to watch and smile. Word seems to spread in real time: within moments a proper small crowd has gathered around the musician, clapping along to the beat, more coins landing in the case, the musician now playing with visible renewed energy and joy, golden late-afternoon light warming the whole scene. STYLE: Warm, grounded live-action realism, soft golden-hour lighting, gentle handheld documentary-style camera energy, no stylization or slow-motion tricks. Vertical 9:16. Continuous real motion. Never freeze on the reference still. No on-screen text, no subtitles, no logos, no title card. AUDIO (native, synced, no added music track, no voiceover, no narration): live acoustic guitar playing throughout — the guitar itself carries the sound. Quiet street ambience at first, a coin dropping into the case, scattered footsteps slowing to a stop, then a swelling crowd murmur with rhythmic clapping by the end. SHOT 1 (0.0-9.0s): Establish the character clearly — sitting on the sidewalk corner playing guitar, case open with only a few coins, people walking past without stopping. Handheld 35mm, medium-wide then push in. The discouragement must be immediately obvious: a glance at the low afternoon sun, a tired shift in posture, maybe starting to reach for the case as if to pack up. Face readable. Passersby are background only. Guitar is being played for real — fingers moving on strings. SHOT 2 (9.0-18.0s): The twist — a small child approaches, drops a coin into the open case (heard), and begins dancing unselfconsciously to the music — clumsy, joyful. The musician’s surprised, delighted reaction is clear and readable on @image1’s face. One or two passersby slow down and stop to watch, smiling. Handheld, eye-level. Child, parent and passersby are real extra people — keep @image1’s face locked on the musician only. SHOT 3 (18.0-28.0s): The resolution — a small crowd has now gathered, clapping along in rhythm, more coins visibly landing in the case, the musician playing with clear renewed joy and energy, golden late-afternoon light across the whole scene. Handheld among the crowd then a clear last beat: musician still playing, crowd still there, a finished warm ending — not a fade-out, not a still.

CHARACTER LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: the person 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. Preserve their gender presentation exactly as shown. Photocopy their hair, eyes, any eyewear and outfit exactly as in @image1. Do not beautify, slim, de-age or restyle them. Keep glasses only if @image1 shows them; never add any. @image1 is identity and wardrobe — only their scale changes. No other people in frame. Use they / their / them only. SUBJECT LOCK — HIGHEST PRIORITY: Preserve the subject in @image1 exactly. If it is a person: their exact face, facial features, hairstyle, skin tone, build and gender presentation stay unchanged — only their scale changes. Do not beautify, restyle or alter identity in any way. @image1 is a REFERENCE still. Do not paste it as the opening frame. Do not open on a studio-grey headshot. CONTINUOUS MOTION REQUIRED: Real, visible physical motion for almost the entire 12 seconds — but the opening 2 seconds prioritize CLARITY over speed, so a first-time viewer immediately understands the setting before the action builds. NO MUG. There is no coffee mug, no cup, no steam anywhere in the shot. The scale anchor is a stack of real, full-sized hardcover books. SCENE: The subject, shrunk to a few centimeters tall, works at a tiny handcrafted workshop bench built from scrap wood and matchsticks, laid out with a small anvil and a row of miniature tools — a tiny hammer, wrench and screwdriver — under a small glowing desk lamp. The bench sits on the corner of a real, full-sized desk, right beside a short stack of normal-sized hardcover books (worn cloth and paper spines, a few millimetres of page-edge showing) that tower over the tiny subject and anchor the scale contrast. Warm lamp light from one side. 0-2s: ESTABLISHING SHOT — wide, clear view of the full miniature workshop bench and its tools, the subject standing at it holding a small piece of metal up to the lamp light, inspecting it. The giant stack of hardcover books is visible in the same frame beside the bench, making the scale contrast unmistakable from the very first seconds. Camera slowly pushes in. 2-4s: The subject sets the metal piece onto the anvil, picks up the tiny hammer, and begins striking it in a steady rhythm — each hit sends a spark into the air, the metal slowly glowing and taking shape, sweat visible on their brow. WOW MOMENT — TIME FREEZE + ORBIT (4-6.5s): On the final, hardest strike, a bright shower of sparks bursts upward. At the instant the sparks reach their peak height, everything suddenly FREEZES. Dozens of glowing sparks hang suspended in mid-air around the subject, who is frozen mid-swing with the hammer raised. The camera performs a slow, cinematic 180-degree orbit around the frozen subject and sparks, revealing the full workbench layout and the giant book stack from multiple angles, shallow depth of field. This freeze holds for roughly 2 seconds. 6.5-7s: TIME RESUMES at full speed — sparks shower down and fade out, the hammer completes its strike with a final ringing clang. 7-9.5s: The subject sets down the hammer, picks up the now-finished tiny piece — a small gleaming gear or medallion — with miniature tongs, and holds it up to inspect it against the lamp light. 9.5-12s: They walk it over and place the finished piece down directly beside the giant book stack, creating a clear side-by-side size comparison against the book spines and page edges, then step back, wipe their brow, and give a satisfied nod and thumbs-up toward camera. SCALE REALISM: The workbench grain, the miniature tools and the books’ cloth spines, paper edges and cover boards must all read at true scale relative to the tiny subject — every texture enormous next to them. Match lighting and color grade between the subject, the sparks and the desk throughout so the whole shot reads as one real photograph, not a composite. Frame wide enough that the establishing shot, the hammering, the freeze-orbit, and the final side-by-side reveal all stay clearly visible. AUDIO: Generate synchronized natural audio for this scene — ambient workshop quiet, rhythmic metallic hammer clangs, a sharp sizzle with each spark, near-silence during the freeze, then a whoosh as sparks shower down, and a satisfied exhale at the end. No music, no voiceover, no narration. No on-screen text, no watermark, no subtitles.
