Emotional buildup like a movie trailer. --- [Important] --- Strictly refer to the uploaded storyboard. Maintain frame layout, era changes, and walking direction. Do not show storyboard frames, annotations, UI, page info, or production notes in the final video. --- [Negative Prompt] --- Slow motion, unnatural movement, dancing, exaggerated acting, robotic movement, unnatural muscles, deformed limbs, blurred face, low-quality texture, fantasy elements, sci-fi elements, mutation, violent camerawork, static background characters, low resolution, anime-style expression, comical expression, unnatural walking, camera angle change, person becomes a different person, excessive motion blur.
