# Old televisions in a warehouse

> Stacks of vintage televisions anchor a nostalgic montage of monochrome drama, an amber countryside figure, neon streets, a pale green domestic interior and blue twilight, ending with a lone white screen in the dark warehouse.

## 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.

## Prompt

```text
以参考图片为视觉基础，严格延续其中仓库的空间结构、TV堆叠方式、旧物质感与整体色调。画面具有真实电影摄影质感，节奏由缓慢克制逐渐转为流畅梦幻，通过镜头持续推进、屏幕匹配剪辑与无缝穿越，依次切换不同年代的电视机，并进入对应年代的影视风格影像。

0-5秒：昏暗、空旷的旧仓库，空气中漂浮着细小灰尘，远处堆满不同时期的老式电视机。冷灰色环境光从高窗斜射进来，地面略微潮湿并反射微弱荧光。镜头以低机位缓慢向TV堆推进，轻微手持呼吸感，仓库深处传来电流杂音和磁带运转声。大部分电视处于熄灭状态，偶尔有一两台闪过雪花与微弱亮点。

5-10秒：镜头继续稳定推进，一台1950—1960年代的黑白木壳圆角电视逐渐成为画面中心。屏幕突然亮起，出现高反差黑白影像：雨夜街道、撑伞行人、老式汽车从远处驶过，画面带有胶片颗粒、划痕、轻微跳帧和边缘暗角。镜头靠近屏幕，电视玻璃上的仓库倒影与黑白影像短暂叠化，随后镜头无缝穿入屏幕，进入黑白电影世界。

10-15秒：黑白雨夜中的汽车从镜头前横向经过，以车身遮挡完成匹配转场。汽车驶离后，场景变为1970年代暖褐色电影风格：夕阳下的公路、随风晃动的树影、复古服装人物的朦胧背影，色彩偏暖、低饱和，带明显16mm胶片颗粒与漏光。镜头缓慢向前滑行，人物回头的一瞬间，画面出现模拟电视信号扭曲和横向扫描线。

15-20秒：信号扭曲自然切换到1980年代的CRT电视画面。镜头仿佛从屏幕内部退回仓库，眼前是一台黑色塑料外壳电视，周围霓虹灯微微闪烁。屏幕播放80年代都市夜景：潮湿街道、红蓝霓虹、车灯拖影、录像带色偏、过曝高光与VHS噪点。镜头再次快速靠近屏幕，穿过一束迎面而来的车灯，利用强光完成无缝转场。

20-25秒：强光消退后进入1990年代家庭录像风格。画面是夏日下午的室内窗边，白色窗帘被风吹起，桌上散落旧照片与磁带，一道人物身影从走廊经过。画面采用4:3比例、柔和偏绿色调、DV噪点、时间感强烈的自然曝光和轻微失焦。人物经过镜头时形成前景遮挡，遮挡结束后切换到2000年代早期宽屏电视中的影像：城市天台、蓝调黄昏、快速掠过的云层，数码摄影质感逐渐变得清晰。

25-30秒：镜头从2000年代影像中平滑后退，重新回到参考图片中的仓库。此时不同年代的电视机同时亮起，每块屏幕分别播放刚才出现过的黑白雨夜、暖色公路、霓虹城市、家庭录像与蓝调天台，光线在灰尘和地面上交错闪烁。镜头继续缓慢后移，所有电视画面逐台熄灭，最后只剩中央一台电视发出柔和白光；电流声骤然安静，画面停留一秒，为后续片名或正片留出自然衔接空间。

整体要求：写实电影级画面，文艺、怀旧、克制、略带梦境感；所有年代转换必须保持空间与运动方向连续，优先使用推镜、遮挡转场、亮度匹配、形状匹配、信号故障与穿越屏幕实现无缝衔接；镜头运动流畅且具有真实惯性，避免生硬跳切。不同年代需准确呈现对应电视机外观、画幅比例、胶片或录像介质质感。统一仓库主空间与参考图片视觉特征，光影细腻，灰尘、屏幕反光、玻璃折射、CRT扫描线和电流闪烁真实自然。无台词、无字幕、无水印、无品牌标识，声音以仓库环境音、电流声、磁带机械声、雨声和低沉氛围音乐逐渐融合。

## What it looks like

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

A moody, cinematic tableau of old televisions, a silhouetted figure, and quiet interior scenes.

- Color: Deep charcoal and blue-green tones, with warm sepia scenes and occasional neon pink, blue, and purple.
- Type: Atmospheric, stylized digital illustration with retro television imagery.
- Framing: Television screens form a dense backdrop; individual scenes feature a centered silhouette, a window-side still life, and images framed within screens.
- Structure: A dark television room gives way to screen imagery and a sepia silhouette, then returns to the television-filled room and its displays.
