This is the complete prompt exactly as the creator published it. ## Before you start Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions. 1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present. 2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized. 3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed. 4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting. 5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use. ## Recreating this video These are the creator's published instructions, unedited. ## Prompt ```text Photorealistic cinematic 3D character render, physically-based rendering with soft realistic skin shading and subsurface scattering, crisp studio-grade key light mixed with moody practical lounge lighting, realistic cloth drape and leather sheen, shallow depth of field, filmic color grade. NOT flat 2D cartoon, NOT painterly illustration, NOT anime style, NOT cel-shaded, NOT posterized color blocks — fully photoreal rendering throughout, matching a high-end digital-human render. WORLD: a dim neo-noir back-room lounge, deep burgundy velvet booths, a single shaft of amber lamplight, rain streaking a window behind venetian blinds, city neon bleeding through in blue and magenta, palette of burgundy, black and gold with cool neon spill, cigarette smoke drifting through the light, layered depth of field. CHARACTER: Vesper Noir @[Image1] — an extremely tall slim adult woman with warm olive skin, sleek jet-black hair in a low chignon with a loose face-framing strand, dramatic winged eyeliner, deep burgundy lips, a small beauty mark near her mouth, wearing a fitted deep-plum plunging bodysuit, a thin black choker with a small skull charm, a massive draped black coat slipped off both shoulders, thigh-high matte-black leather boots, photoreal digital-human rendering with soft realistic skin shading. CINEMATIC INTRO SHOT DESIGN (6 Filmic Cuts with Expressions): - SHOT 1 (0–2s | Macro Detail): Extreme macro close-up of her fingers spinning a gold-hilted dagger flat on the velvet tabletop, smoke curling past in amber light, the blade catching a single glint. - SHOT 2 (2–4s | Behavior): Medium shot of her tapping ash from a slender cigarette holder against a crystal tray, unhurried, coat sliding slightly further off one shoulder, completely unbothered. - SHOT 3 (4–6s | Expression): Close-up on her face as her half-lidded gaze lifts slowly to camera, a confident smirk forming as she exhales a slow curl of smoke. - SHOT 4 (6–9s | Environment Reveal): Wide shot revealing the full lounge around her — velvet booths, neon bleeding through the blinds, rain tracking down the window glass, she sits centered in the one shaft of amber light. - SHOT 5 (9–12s | Confident Movement): Tracking shot as she rises from the booth and walks toward camera with unhurried confidence, coat trailing off her shoulders, dagger held loose at her side, boots striking the floor in rhythm. - SHOT 6 (12–15s | Hero Poster Frame): Low-angle hero shot, strong silhouette against the rain-streaked, neon-lit window behind her, dagger held at her hip, faint smirk, smoke still drifting past — the poster frame. Weighty natural animation, coat and hair reacting to her movement, subtle facial micro-expressions, filmic 24fps shutter, shallow depth of field. NOT flat 2D cartoon, no painterly brushwork, no anime style, no cel-shading — fully photoreal cinematic rendering only. ``` ## What it looks like Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.
