VIDEO PROMPT

SUBJECT — BEAUTY, LOCKED FROM REFERENCE
Use ${character-reference} as the strict character reference. Keep her recognizable face, facial proportions, hairstyle, red ribbon, body proportions, and overall appearance exactly consistent throughout. She is a 30-year-old adult woman, 165 cm tall, with a slim build and full adult proportions. Do not allow age drift in either direction. Keep the freckles across her nose and upper cheeks visible throughout. Lock the same 1990s vintage colour base across every shot, as though captured on the same roll of film.

SHOT 1 — HIKING INTO THE RAINFOREST
She hikes at a steady, unhurried pace along a narrow earth trail into a lush tropical rainforest. Towering buttressed trees, a dense layered canopy, hanging vines, broad dripping leaves, tree ferns, and thick undergrowth crowd the path. Shafts of sunlight fall through the canopy in soft moving columns, thick with drifting dust and insects.

Her movement includes small, natural adjustments to uneven ground: stepping down onto a root, pushing a frond aside, and glancing at her footing. She looks up once into the canopy as she passes through a column of light, slowing without stopping. Her clothing and hair react to each step. She is absorbed in the place, not performing for anyone.

CAMERA: Handheld, following from behind and slightly to one side at chest height, as if the operator is walking the same trail. Use continuous organic wander, footstep bounce on every stride, and a horizon that drifts a degree or two off level. Leaves and fronds occasionally sweep close past the lens and cross the foreground. Let focus hunt slightly as depth changes. No gimbal, drone, orbit, dramatic push-in, zoom, or slow motion.

SHOT 2 — LYING IN THE CLEARING
The trail opens into a small clearing of soft, lush grass beneath a break in the canopy. She lies completely relaxed on her back, settled comfortably into the grass. Both hands rest naturally underneath the back of her head, elbows loosely open. Her legs are relaxed rather than straight: one knee is slightly bent, the other rests against the ground.

She looks straight upward through the canopy gap, absorbed in the sky. Her expression is peaceful and open, with a quiet undercurrent of curiosity. She is not posing or looking toward the camera. Her eyes slowly follow something moving above her.

A gentle breeze moves her hair, loose strands around her face, her clothing, and the tips of the surrounding grass. Rainforest humidity hangs in the light.

CAMERA: An intimate three-quarter medium shot from very low in the grass, roughly at her body level. Blades of grass fall softly out of focus across the foreground. Her face is visible in three-quarter profile as she stares upward. Hold on her eyes for a moment. Do not show what she sees yet. Use only natural handheld imperfections.

CUT TO — HER POV OF THE SKY
Make a clean, natural cut to a full-frame view of the sky through the canopy gap, as though seeing exactly what she sees. The frame is mostly open sky, with dark silhouetted leaves and branches framing the corners.

Fill the sky with many soft, layered clouds: some thin and wispy, others larger and softly illuminated. Use gentle variations of faded pink, warm ivory, dusty peach, muted grey, and pale cream. Keep the tint restrained and sun-faded within the established vintage palette, never bright fantasy pink or purple.

THE CLOUD FACE
Among the clouds, one formation naturally resembles the profile of a handsome young Asian man, with a clean brow and nose line, a defined jaw, and the suggestion of hair swept back. The face must be made entirely of real cloud: no cartoon face, illustration, CGI head, perfectly sculpted portrait, or glowing edges. Keep the resemblance accidental and slightly ambiguous, like real cloud-watching: the viewer thinks, “That looks like someone.” The face is invented, not any real or recognizable person.

Hold on the cloud face briefly. Then let the wind slowly change its shape naturally. The jaw line softens and drifts apart first; the brow stretches into the surrounding cloud; then the whole profile loses its outline as wispy pieces gently separate. Within a few moments, it has dissolved completely into ordinary cloud. The movement must feel like genuine atmospheric motion, never a magical transformation, morphing VFX, or rapid change. The separated wisps drift on peacefully.

CUT BACK — THE SMILE
Return to the low three-quarter shot of her in the grass. The smallest shy smile develops rather than appearing suddenly: first a slight narrowing and softening of the eyes, then a small, closed-lipped curve of the mouth. She briefly looks away from the sky, down and to one side, as someone might when catching themselves thinking something private. She blinks slowly once, then lets her eyes drift back up.

Keep the whole beat restrained. Each emotional peak should read through small movements, not an enlarged expression. No wide grin, open mouth, giggling, hands to the face, theatrical reaction, or anything larger than a real person alone would do.

MASTER 1990s COLOUR GRADE — STRICTLY LOCKED
Maintain an authentic 1990s film/home-video memory aesthetic across every shot: slightly warm and faded, restrained saturation, creamy skin tones, and earthy muted greens. Keep the rainforest deep and rich but never neon or emerald. Use soft yellow/amber warmth in highlights, slightly green-brown shadows, gently lifted blacks, low-to-moderate contrast, and softly rolled-off highlights.

For the sky shot, introduce dusty pink and peach cloud tones while keeping the same faded base; the pink should read as aged and sun-faded, never digitally saturated. Add fine organic grain, subtle analog noise, slight softness, mild colour bleed, faint halation around the brightest light shafts, gentle haze, imperfect exposure, and a tiny amount of natural flicker. It should feel like an actual memory captured in the 1990s, not modern footage with a retro filter. Do not let the grade drift between shots.

AUDIO — NO MUSIC
Use dense rainforest ambience: layered insects and cicadas, distant unfamiliar bird calls, water dripping from leaves somewhere off-frame, her footsteps on soft earth and leaf litter, her slightly heavier breathing on the hike, and fabric and grass rustling as she settles. On the cut to the sky, reduce the sound to soft wind and distant, thinner ambience. Keep her breathing present throughout. No dialogue or music.

NEGATIVE INSTRUCTIONS
No age drift, childlike proportions, or youthening. No second person in frame at any point: the man exists only as an ambiguous cloud shape, never as an actual figure, on the ground, or beside her. No real or recognizable person's face. No cartoon face, floating head, glowing cloud, fantasy VFX, or rapid morphing. No extra limbs, warped hands, six fingers, or morphing face. No dramatic sunset, neon pink or purple sky, HDR, cyan/teal grade, oversaturation, or modern digital sharpness. No drone, orbit, gimbal stabilization, dramatic camera movement, or slow motion. No dialogue, text, or music.
