Create a highly realistic, seamless video in which a miniature, lifelike version of the person in the personal photo emerges from the circular Instagram profile picture in the supplied screenshot, climbs onto the screen, and carefully cleans the entire visible profile page with a tiny soft microfiber cloth.

## Reference images
- Image 1 is the original Instagram profile screenshot. Use it as the exact, immutable background and interface reference.
- Image 2 is the person's personal photo. Use it as the exact identity and facial appearance reference for the miniature character.

## Preserve the original Instagram screen — absolute priority
Reproduce the uploaded Instagram screenshot pixel-for-pixel wherever possible. Keep the entire original interface completely unchanged throughout the video.

Preserve the exact username, profile name, biography, numbers, text, fonts, colors, buttons, icons, highlights, post thumbnails, grid layout, spacing, proportions, status bar, and every other visible detail. Do not replace, regenerate, redesign, reinterpret, translate, rearrange, blur, distort, remove, or modify any part of the Instagram interface.

The screenshot must remain a perfectly stable, static background. Only the miniature character, the tiny cloth, and their realistic contact shadows may move.

## Exact facial likeness
The miniature character must unmistakably resemble the person in the uploaded personal photograph. Preserve the exact facial identity, facial proportions, eyes, nose, mouth, skin tone, hairstyle, hairline, and other distinctive features. Do not beautify, age, de-age, stylize, or alter the face.

Use realistic human anatomy, natural body proportions, detailed skin texture, and lifelike movement. The character should look like a physically real, miniature human rather than a cartoon, toy, figurine, or CGI mascot. Adapt the outfit naturally to the reference photo where possible. Do not invent distinctive facial features or change the person's identity.

## Emergence from the profile picture
Begin with the original Instagram profile screenshot perfectly still. The miniature version of the person gradually appears inside the existing circular profile photo, then naturally climbs out through the circular frame as if the profile picture were a tiny physical doorway.

The character carefully steps over the circular border, lowers one leg onto the Instagram screen, supports himself with his hands, and climbs down onto the profile page. Make the transition physically convincing, with realistic weight, balance, hand placement, foot contact, and subtle shadows. The circular profile picture itself must remain unchanged as an image. The character emerges from its frame without damaging, replacing, or deforming it.

## Clean the entire profile page without erasing anything
The miniature character takes out a tiny, soft microfiber cleaning cloth and methodically cleans the visible Instagram profile from top to bottom: the profile header area, biography area, buttons, highlight covers, and visible post grid.

Use small, natural circular motions and gentle horizontal and vertical strokes. The character may occasionally change grip on the cloth and shift body position to reach different areas. Have the character walk carefully across the screen, reach upward when necessary, bend down to clean lower sections, and maintain believable contact with the surface.

**Critical cleaning rule: this is physical screen cleaning, not digital erasing.** The cloth must never erase, remove, fade, smear, permanently obscure, repaint, rewrite, or alter the Instagram content. All text, photographs, icons, buttons, and interface elements must remain perfectly intact and readable before, during, and after the wiping action.

The cloth moves across the surface like someone polishing a transparent glass screen. It may create subtle, realistic reflections, tiny moving highlights, and delicate contact shadows, but it must never leave a trail, cleaning streak, white patch, blur, blank area, or any visible change to the underlying content. The character cleans the surface of the screen, not the information displayed on it.

## Physics, lighting, and motion
Use cinematic photorealism with physically accurate lighting, realistic miniature-scale shadows, subtle reflections, natural fabric movement, and believable contact between the character, cloth, and screen. Maintain consistent character scale, perspective, anatomy, lighting direction, and proportions throughout the entire video.

Movements should be smooth, continuous, carefully coordinated, and natural, with no sudden jumps, teleportation, sliding, floating, jittering, or unnatural limb movements. The character must remain clearly recognizable throughout the sequence.

## Ending
After cleaning the entire visible profile, the miniature character performs one final gentle wipe, inspects the clean screen with a satisfied expression, and gives a subtle friendly gesture toward the viewer. End with the character standing naturally on the Instagram screen.

The final frame must show the exact same original Instagram profile, completely unchanged, with all content intact and the miniature character still visible.

## Video and camera
- Vertical 9:16 format, optimized for Instagram Reels.
- Duration: approximately 8–12 seconds, or the closest supported duration.
- One continuous shot with a fixed camera: no cuts, zoom, panning, camera shake, or interface movement.
- Ultra-realistic live-action appearance, high detail, natural motion, seamless compositing, professional visual effects, and convincing miniature scale.

## Final priority order
1. Preserve the original Instagram screenshot and every interface element exactly.
2. Preserve the person's real facial identity and recognizable appearance.
3. Make the miniature character emerge naturally from the profile picture frame.
4. Show convincing physical wiping motions without changing or erasing any screen content.
5. Maintain photorealism, smooth animation, and a fixed camera.

If any cleaning action would modify the screenshot, prioritize preserving the screenshot and animate the character's wiping motion over the unchanged surface instead.
