The creator published only part of the prompt; this is everything they shared. ## 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 15 seconds, 16:9 landscape. Blend photoreal live-action footage of a quiet independent bookstore just before closing with delicate hand-drawn luminous animated spirits. Warm amber lamps illuminate overflowing wooden bookshelves while soft evening light filters through the front windows. The bookstore feels cozy, nostalgic, and lived in, with scattered books, handwritten staff notes, reading glasses left on a table, a ceramic coffee cup, and a wooden ladder leaning against a shelf. Film as though someone unexpectedly notices the tiny illustrated creatures while browsing alone. Capture the footage using a handheld smartphone with subtle natural shake, gentle autofocus breathing, slight exposure fluctuations between warm interior lights and the darker corners of the store, and realistic shadow noise. The footage should feel like a genuine discovery rather than a planned production. The tiny hand-drawn spirits quietly emerge between stacked books, peek around shelves, climb across book spines, slide down hanging bookmarks, and leave glowing illustrated doodles that briefly shimmer before fading away. Their movements should feel playful, curious, and believable within the real environment. Camera: slow handheld exploration, hesitant push-ins, gentle rack focus between foreground books and hidden creatures, natural reframing, and intimate close-ups that make the viewer feel as though they're carefully following the tiny spirits through the bookstore. Lighting & Atmosphere: warm tungsten practical lighting, soft evening window light, floating dust particles, subtle reflections on polished wood, shallow depth of field, and gentle illustrated glow that naturally blends into the live-action environment. Do not include frightening expressions, exaggerated cartoon features, jump scares, sudden camera movements, oversized creatures, or destructive behavior. The animation should remain subtle, elegant, and quietly magical. Audio: soft page turns, distant floorboard creaks, quiet footsteps, subtle cloth movement, ambient room tone, gentle pencil-sketch sounds as the creatures draw glowing lines, tiny musical chimes, delicate electronic textures, and quiet whispered vocalizations that enhance the feeling of discovery without becoming distracting. ``` ## What it looks like Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.
