## 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 the scale contrast to another setting by placing familiar vehicles beside a vastly larger creature or structure. Keep exterior and hidden-world scenes within one desaturated palette, using a single luminous artifact as their visual link. Alternate broad environmental compositions with close details that reveal material and scale.

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.

A moody maritime spectacle combines industrial machinery, open water, looming sea life, and a towering wave.

- Color: Cold slate blue, deep teal, charcoal, and muted gray, accented by small electric-blue lights and pale sea spray.
- Type: Cinematic photorealistic CGI with dark, atmospheric lighting and large-scale visual effects.
- Framing: Strong silhouettes set against broad expanses of dark water and hazy sky; ships and sea creatures provide focal points, with occasional glowing details drawing the eye.
- Structure: Industrial close-up and submerged scenes establish a mysterious ocean setting; ships and a breaching whale lead into a final image of a massive wave engulfing a vessel.
