## 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

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Adapt this approach to an illustrated story about everyday connection, using a small set of human details and outdoor settings. Unify the scenes with amber edge lighting, lavender shadows, and soft shape boundaries. Contrast intimate crops with an overhead environmental view, and use abstract circles of light as a recurring visual motif.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

Soft, simplified illustrations with glowing lights, a face in profile, small figures, and a bright crowd-like scene.

- Color: Warm oranges, yellows, and pinks contrasted with muted purples, blues, and greens; frequent hazy gradients and luminous highlights.
- Type: No visible lettering; forms are rounded and minimally detailed, with a soft, painterly digital finish.
- Framing: Broad bands of color and glowing circular shapes give way to a large side-profile face and small figures against open, atmospheric backgrounds.
- Structure: A sequence of distinct illustrated scenes, moving from abstract lights to a profile and figures, then to bright clustered forms.
