The character reference sheet was generated first with Midjourney and GPT, then fed to the video model as @Image1, a multi-view identity board. The prompt opens by spelling out that only the design should be copied, not the poses, and that the background and red canvas must be dropped entirely. The fifteen-second cut is broken into eight hard cuts, each one pinned down with a focal length, camera height and action, and the ending locks everything in place with countable constraints on the number of glowing dots, the number of hard cuts, and a ban on removing the mask.

@ Image1 is the character reference — a multi-view identity board. Copy the character's design exactly as shown; ignore the poses on the board — this prompt defines all movement and posing; omit the board's layout, the red canvas background and any backdrop; full body, living, moving with real weight. A masked antihero crouches on a rain-slicked rooftop, his eye-dot ignites as a black convoy rolls below, and he drops like a blade onto the lead truck, clearing the first two guards. A night city under coal-black sky; sheets of rain, red neon bleeding off signs, wet asphalt mirroring the traffic; a three-truck black convoy stopped at a light below. The antihero, @ Image1: bone-white grooved mask, weathered grey jaw; giant circular black lenses, thin red rims, one glowing red dot in the viewer-right lens; charcoal ink-hatched suit; continuous red spine stripe front and back; ribbed red forearms and shins; hyper-muscular; no cape, no visible weapon. Enemies: two armored thugs in matte-black gear, face shields, rifles. 0:00–0:02 — MWS at low angle, 40mm, locked. First frame = he is already crouched on a stone gargoyle ledge, rain beading on the bone-white mask, red neon flickering across the grooves; his chest stripe rises once. Hard cut. 0:02–0:04 — ECU on the right lens, 65mm. Rain runs around the rim; the small red dot IGNITES and steadies to a hard point; he tilts his head one degree toward the avenue. Hard cut. 0:04–0:06 — WS at worm's-eye, 24mm. He steps off the ledge, arms pinned, falling like a dropped blade; the tower face rushes past with barrel distortion; a thin red dot-streak trails him. Hard cut. 0:06–0:08 — MS at 35mm, gimbal tracking his fall sideways along the building. Rain streaks shear past the lens; he rotates once, feet aiming at the lead truck below. Hard cut. 0:08–0:10 — MS at high angle, 35mm. He lands feet-first on the lead truck's roof; the roof dimples, water and dust burst in a ring; he sinks into a crouch, rain rebounding off his shoulders. Hard cut. 0:10–0:12 — MWS at 50mm, handheld. He rolls off the roof onto the hood; the first gunner raises a rifle; he slaps the barrel aside and headbutts the face shield — blood mist sprays across the windshield. Hard cut. 0:12–0:14 — MS at 40mm. He pivots, grabs the second thug by the collar, and slams it head-first into the truck door; the panel buckles, blood spits from the thug's mouth. Hard cut. 0:14–0:15 — WS at 28mm, whip pan into the dark street. A towering silhouette fills a doorway fifty meters away, rain falling between them; the antihero's red dot flares — the outgoing frame holds the standoff. 24–65mm; low angles, camera below him on the roof, above him on the fall, never level; shutter-fast cuts, one whip pan; rain catching neon. Coal, crimson, neon. Deep blacks; key light is red neon screen-right, one cyan puddle reflection. No music, no score, no bgm — diegetic only: rain, a muffled impact thud, metal buckle, blood-mist hiss, distant tires, radio static. Count of hard cuts in the clip: eight. Count of glowing dots: one, viewer-right lens; the left lens dark. Count of mask removed: zero. Count of text, labels or logos: zero. The red spine stripe stays continuous.
✍️ Editor’s Notes

The opening two lines lay the groundwork for image-to-video: first it states that @Image1 is a multi-view identity board, then it explicitly instructs the model to copy only the design, not the poses, and to drop the red backdrop and layout entirely — without this line, the model easily copies the whole reference sheet straight into the frame as picture content. The character description drills down to the grooves in the mask, which lens the red dot glows in, and how the spine stripe stays continuous front and back — these are the anchors for cross-shot consistency. The fifteen seconds are cut into eight hard-cut segments, each pinned down with a shot size, a focal length (24–65mm), a camera height and one specific action, separated by a "Hard cut." line. The real craft shows in the closing set of countable constraints: eight hard cuts, one glowing dot, zero times the mask comes off, zero text or logos — giving orders with countable numbers is far easier for the model to actually follow than writing "stay consistent."

[Style] Dark desert trap, 140 BPM, D minor. Hard 808s, brass stabs, dusty phonk, war drums, wind textures, whispered ad-libs. Rap vocal only in chorus. [Intro 0:00-0:15 "The Descent"] Wind hiss over a sparse 808 pulse, hi-hats like sand scattering, strings swelling into a riser. Impact hit exactly at 0:15 (edit point 1). [Verse 0:15-0:30 "The Gunfight"] Layered 808s, snare rolls, staccato brass, dusty phonk cowbell. Gritty rap: "Sand in the air, sun going low - checkpoint down, watch the lead blow. One breath, two shots - clean like that. Dust on the boots, blood on the map." [Impact hit exactly at 0:30 (edit point 2).] [Chorus 0:30-0:42 "The Finale"] Double-time hats, choir stabs, biggest 808 pattern, war drums and brass. Hook: "DUSTWALKER! Through the storm - take it all, leave it torn. Amber sky, sand on steel - watch the whole city kneel." [Outro 0:42-0:45] Sudden stop, one sub-bass thump, wind fade. Whispered: "...sand settles. Walk away."
✍️ Editor’s Notes

The music spec in the same project line is written strictly along the song's structure: it starts with a style layer (desert trap, 140 BPM, D minor, 808s, brass, war drums, wind), then splits the track along the timeline into four sections — Intro / Verse / Chorus / Outro — each pinned down with exact start and end seconds, arrangement density and emotional direction, and it nails the two impact hits precisely at 0:15 and 0:30. This is an edit-structure-first approach to songwriting — the music's downbeats double directly as cut points. The verse and chorus lyrics are written out word for word, and rap vocals are restricted to the chorus only, leaving the rest of the sections to the instrumental. After 0:42 the track cuts off suddenly, leaving only a single low-end thump and a fading wind sound, giving the picture room to land its ending.
