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. Requirements reported by the source: The published prompt refers to supplied reference images, footage or files. Provide your own equivalents.. ## Recreating this video These are the creator's published instructions, unedited. ## Prompt ```text Use the uploaded reference image as the exact character reference. Preserve her facial identity, eye color, skin tone, hairstyle, makeup, body proportions, and overall appearance consistently throughout every shot. She wears a fitted white crop top, relaxed black denim shorts, white sneakers, white crew socks, silver jewelry, and a cropped red bomber jacket. Maintain perfect character and outfit consistency. Create a premium American hip-hop performance video inside a backstage concert environment with black curtains, glowing red LED panels, stage equipment, speakers, cables, mirrors, metal cases, and atmospheric haze. The video opens with her sitting in front of a backstage mirror, putting on her earrings while looking confidently at her reflection. She stands, adjusts her crop top and bomber jacket, then walks through the backstage corridor toward the stage. She enters the performance area and starts moving to the beat with relaxed hip-hop choreography, combining quick steps, shoulder movements, spins, hand gestures, and confident poses. The camera follows her from behind before swinging around into a front-facing tracking shot. She grabs a microphone stand, performs expressive lip-sync, then transitions into a powerful dance sequence. The camera rapidly cuts between close-ups of her face, sneakers hitting the floor, moving hands, and wide stage compositions. She moves toward a drum kit positioned beside the stage, sits down, and plays a short energetic rhythm. Overhead and low-angle shots capture the drumsticks, cymbals, foot movements, and her focused expression. She steps back onto center stage, throws her bomber jacket over one shoulder, walks directly toward the camera, and finishes with a strong fashion pose beneath dramatic red lights. Style: High-end rap music video, concert backstage aesthetic, cinematic handheld movement, dynamic tracking shots, realistic lip-sync, expressive body language, realistic fabric and hair movement, dramatic stage lighting, shallow depth of field, premium editorial cinematography, photorealistic, 4K HDR, 24fps, 16:9. Negative Prompt: No text, no subtitles, no watermarks, no duplicate characters, no distorted hands, no facial inconsistency, no outfit changes, no flickering, no unrealistic physics, no cartoon rendering. ``` ## What it looks like Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.
