## 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
Character: A mysterious masked dancer wearing flowing turquoise robes, golden ankle bells, a long scarf, and lightweight acrobat shoes, moving somewhere between parkour, martial arts, and dance.

0:00–0:04 — Begin with a side-tracking camera as the dancer races through a vast moving caravan city crossing a golden desert: giant wagons, walking elephants, fabric tents, merchants and animals all moving in the same direction.

0:04–0:08 — The dancer jumps onto a camel saddle, runs lightly across two moving camels, spins around a vertical tent pole, and lands on the roof of a rolling wooden wagon. Camera smoothly rotates from profile to frontal tracking.

0:08–0:12 — They sprint across wagon rooftops while laundry lines and colorful carpets flap overhead. They duck beneath one carpet, jump through a circular opening in another, then somersault over a startled ostrich running between the wagons.

0:12–0:16 — The final wagon suddenly reaches the edge of an enormous sandstone ravine. The dancer launches into space. Extreme slow motion: the scarf spirals around them as the camera makes a full orbit, revealing an ancient city carved into the cliffs below.

0:16–0:20 — Normal speed returns just as they land on a giant suspended fabric canopy. The canopy bends downward like a trampoline and launches them through an arched window.

0:20–0:24 — They race through a palace corridor filled with musicians and dancers. The runner seamlessly integrates the obstacles into choreography: stepping over drums, sliding beneath a dancer's spinning sleeves, running briefly along a wall, then flipping through an open doorway.

0:24–0:27 — Outside again, they descend a staircase by running along the stone railing instead of the steps while goats scramble upward in the opposite direction.

0:27–0:30 — They leap from the railing onto the top of a passing festival procession's giant ceremonial puppet, run across its shoulders, jump forward, and vanish into a dense cloud of colored powder as the camera follows straight into the cloud.

## What it looks like

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

A turquoise-cloaked figure moves through a warm-toned desert town, among horse-drawn wagons, rooftops, stairways, and colorful oversized masks.

- Color: Ochre, sand, rust, and deep brown, with turquoise clothing and occasional vivid red, blue, and yellow accents.
- Type: Stylized 3D animated-film illustration with simplified forms, soft lighting, and painted-looking textures.
- Framing: The turquoise figure is the recurring focal point, set against layered architecture and town details; some scenes use foreground silhouettes or large props to frame the view.
- Structure: A sequence of distinct town settings, including a wagon-lined street, rooftops, a building interior, broad stairs, and a plaza with mask-like figures.
