Prompt
{{Image 1}} = Storyboard reference. Based on the attached storyboard image {{Image 1}}, create a high-quality 15-second horizontal 16:9 video. Theme: "Coexistence of live-action and effects." Overall, the video should be set in Tokyo's streetscape, fast-paced, refreshing, with colorful moving effects naturally blending into the live-action scenery. Do not make a slideshow of still images; ensure both the camera and effects are moving in each cut to create a pleasant montage. Visual Direction: Live-action based Tokyo landscapes. Urban montage using blue skies, utility poles, power lines, intersections, torii gates, alleys, riverside, trains, waterfronts, parks, and sunset views. Coexisting within the live-action are 2D-style colorful ribbon trails, confetti, shapes, white hand-drawn symbolic lines, arrows, arcs, dotted lines, orbital lines, and light sketch-like overlays. Effects should not look pasted on top of the screen but should follow the perspective and flow of the actual space, blending into the depth of the live-action. Each effect should be independent with unique movements. Overall, it should feel refreshing, light, slightly poetic, as if the city itself is alive. Avoid excessive sci-fi or cyber elements. Value the transparency of bright daylight and the lingering afterglow of the final sunset scene. Cut Structure: Cut 1: Tokyo main street. Wide street view with Tokyo Skytree in the distance. Low angle. Depth of townscape and power lines. Colorful ribbon effects flow along the road, confetti and white lines dance in the air. Slowly advancing camera. Cut 2: Large torii gate in the city. A mysterious composition where road signs and city billboards coexist with the torii. Ribbon effects run through the gate. Fast pan camera. Cut 3: Ultra close-up of a pedestrian signal. Green walking sign against a blue sky. Surrounded by road signs. White hand-drawn lines, arcs, particles, and shapes move lightly around the signal. Tilting up from a close-up. Cut 4: Low angle looking up at utility poles and massive power lines. Large sky. Pink, light blue, yellow, and white ribbon effects intertwine with the flow of wires. Paper scraps and small shapes drift in the wind. Camera orbits slightly while looking up. Cut 5: Overhead view of an intersection. Many road signs, effects flow along the road lines. Ribbon trails run to emphasize the flow of traffic. Fast-paced cut. Cut 6: Riverside with cherry blossoms. Flowers, waterfront, promenade, Tokyo city. Ribbon effects naturally connect the promenade to the riverside. Petals, confetti, and white sketch lines dance like a spring breeze. Gentle lateral movement. Cut 7: Sketch-style abstract cut close to a white background. An impression of the riverside landscape turned into line art. A moment where the live-action shifts into a 2D world. Thin lines, hand-drawn orbital lines, light shapes, and musical note-like symbols flow. Short and impactful. Cut 8: Narrow alley. Red vending machine, depth of the alley, shop fronts, and plants. Ribbon effects weave through the corner. Scattered white symbol lines. Camera advances forward. Cut 9: Railroad crossing and moving train. Speed of crossing signals and barriers. Ribbon and paper scrap effects flow, caught in the train's speed. Dynamic diagonal composition. Cut 10: Waterfront promenade. Flower beds, fences, distant city views, wide sky. Effects spread out slightly, white lines exiting into the sky. Creating a sense of openness. Cut 11: Park pond. Water birds, trees, city in the background. Calm and quiet atmosphere with thin white lines, faint confetti, and soft ribbon lingering. Slowly moving from a slightly overhead view. Cut 12: Sunset waterfront and city silhouette. Ribbon effects drawing large arcs in the sky. Reflection of the setting sun. This is the most poetic and lingering finale. Camera quietly advances or moves laterally to end. Direction/Editing: Fast-paced high-speed cut composition. Cuts are short but create match cuts through ribbon effects, direction of travel, sky color, and subject flow. Mix close-ups, macro shots, low angles, overheads, diagonal compositions, forward movement, and fast pans. Ensure the camera isn't too chaotic to maintain visibility. Maintain live-action texture while making it look 2.5D, where anime-like effects are naturally integrated. Image Creation: High quality, cinematic, bright natural light, transparent blue sky, delicate city details, clean color design. Effects centered around pink, light blue, yellow, and white. Effect volume is substantial but doesn't obscure the subject. Live-action and effects must not conflict but exist in the same world. Important Matters: No still-image slideshows. Both camera and effects must move in every cut. No text, subtitles, logos, or watermarks. No excessive noise, distorted shapes, unnatural flickering, or broken characters. Create a refreshing and beautiful 15-second video where moving effects naturally coexist within live-action landscapes.
