Prompt

Create a 12-second ultra-realistic vertical cinematic video.

Use the provided character reference for the exact same female character and use the provided master storyboard as the strict visual guide for the entire sequence.

Recreate the storyboard's actions, camera positions, framing, timing and visual progression in the same chronological order. Do not invent additional scenes or change the main actions.

Maintain strict character consistency throughout the entire video: identical face, hairstyle, body proportions, clothing, accessories and overall appearance.

The video should feel like premium realistic live-action footage with natural human movement, believable physics, realistic facial expressions and physically accurate interaction with the environment.

- preserve the opening composition and first action
- reproduce each major movement and reaction in the correct order
- match the camera perspective and framing of each storyboard moment
- use natural transitions between consecutive actions
- preserve the exact spatial relationship between the character and surrounding objects
- keep all props consistent and physically present
- reproduce the final composition and ending shown in the storyboard

Use dynamic but realistic camera movement, including handheld tracking, close-ups, wider framing and motivated camera shifts wherever shown by the storyboard.

Keep motion fluid and continuous. Avoid sudden teleportation, duplicated objects, changing clothing, facial identity drift, unnatural body deformation or inconsistent backgrounds.

Prioritize realistic lighting, natural shadows, authentic textures, detailed skin, realistic hair movement and believable environmental physics.

The final result must look like a professionally captured real-life video rather than an AI-generated sequence.

No subtitles.
No captions.
No logos.
No watermark.
No unnecessary text.
No additional characters or actions that are not shown in the storyboard.
