VIDEO PROMPT — 23 seconds, 1:1 square, live-action cinematic realism, soft indoor daylight, slightly desaturated film look, teen-comedy tone mixed with a cool "aura edit" montage. Keep faces, outfits and locations identical in every shot.
CHARACTERS
MAN: tall young man with long straight platinum-blond hair parted in the middle, pale skin, light blue eyes, a calm sly half-smile, deadpan cool. In the cafeteria he wears a black high-collar shirt. In the montage he wears a long black coat over a black high-collar shirt and black leather gloves.
GIRL: young woman with shoulder-length wavy honey-blonde hair, small gold hoop earrings, fitted grey long-sleeve top with a white undershirt collar, dark grey shorts, black sheer tights, black knee-high boots with heels. She carries a black cafeteria tray with a red apple, a small red-and-white milk carton, and a plate with a sandwich.
LOCATION 1: school cafeteria. Orange floor, long cream tables with attached benches, a serving counter with blue menu boards, round white pendant lamps, students in dark clothes in the background.
SHOT-BY-SHOT TIMELINE
SHOT 1 (00:00-00:00.6) — Side-Eye
Close-up of the man seated at a table, looking sideways toward the camera with a smug side-eye. Blurred cafeteria behind. Speed: REAL TIME.
SHOT 2 (00:00.6-00:02.6) — Her Entrance
Over-the-man's-shoulder view (his blond hair out of focus in the left foreground). The girl walks toward the camera down the aisle between the tables, carrying the tray, smiling, her hair bouncing. Students sit and queue behind her. Camera static with a slight push-in. Speed: REAL TIME.
SHOT 3 (00:02.6-00:03.6) — He Watches
Close-up of the man, blurred cafeteria behind him. He looks up at her with a smug, calm half-smile.
SHOT 4 (00:03.6-00:04.5) — She Passes
Low-angle medium close-up of the girl smiling and glancing sideways as she passes his table, her hair swaying, the tray visible at the bottom of the frame.
SHOT 5 (00:04.5-00:06.3) — The Glance Down
Close-up of the man's face, then he closes his eyes and lowers his gaze, then extreme close-up of his eyes as they shift sideways and down.
SHOT 6 (00:06.3-00:06.6) — The Spill
Macro shot of a puddle of amber syrup on the orange floor.
SHOT 7 (00:06.6-00:06.9) — The Slip
Macro: the girl's black boot steps into the puddle and skids through it.
SHOT 8 (00:06.9-00:07.1) — The Realization
Medium close-up of the girl: her smile freezes into a shocked open-mouthed expression.
SHOT 9 (00:07.1-00:07.3) — The Fall
Low angle: her hair whips violently as her boot skids and she loses her balance, falling backward. Speed: REAL TIME.
SHOT 10 (00:07.3-00:08.0) — Tray in the Air
Extreme low angle looking up at the white ceiling tiles and a round pendant lamp. The black tray flies up, spinning, with the red apple, two milk cartons and a bread slice tumbling in the air above it. Speed: SLOW MOTION (about 25-30% speed).
SHOT 11 (00:07.8-00:08.6) — Lightning Rescue
Wide view of the man at his table. He whips up from his seat in a lightning-fast, cat-like motion blur, hair swinging, and darts toward her. One of his arms swings out low and goes behind her back, so she does not fall backward. In the foreground his black sleeve blurs across the frame, and her back, grey-sleeved shoulder and brown hair fall back into his arm. Speed: REAL TIME.
SHOT 12 (00:08.6-00:09.4) — Held Mid-Fall
Low angle. The girl is tilted backward, held up by his hand behind her back. With his other hand he reaches for the airborne tray, while he looks up with a calm, flat face, his hair hanging straight. The tray spins back down into frame. Speed: SLOW MOTION (about 25-30% speed).
SHOT 13 (00:09.4-00:11.0) — The Catch
Low-angle two-shot. One of his hands holds the tray level under the falling items, while his other hand stays behind the girl's back. She stays tilted back against his arm and side, mouth open in shock, then straightens up and stands pressed close beside him. The milk carton lands upright on the tray, then the apple, the bread and the plate land one by one. He stays expressionless, looking up, while she stares in awe. Speed: SLOW MOTION (about 25-30% speed).
SHOT 14 (00:11.0-00:14.0) — Flirting
Close two-shot. The girl turns to him, smiling, then laughing and talking happily. The man glances at her with a calm half-smile. Cafeteria windows blurred behind. Speed: REAL TIME.
SHOT 15 (00:14.0-00:15.0) — Parking Lot
Outdoors in a parking lot with trees and an orange machine. The man, in a long black coat and black leather gloves, stands next to a car with its side mirror in the right of the frame, smirks and looks sideways. A couple walks behind him.
SHOT 16 (00:15.0-00:16.0) — Dark Café
Interior with dark brown walls and a warm wall lamp. He stands in the long black coat behind a counter, with a metal thermos on it and a short-haired man's head at the bottom edge of the frame, and looks at the camera with a sly smirk.
SHOT 17 (00:16.0-00:16.8) — Window
By a window with a hanging plant, he holds a white coffee cup in a black-gloved hand and smiles quietly at the camera.
SHOT 18 (00:16.8-00:17.5) — Warm Lights
Close-up in front of glowing round pendant lights. He smirks sideways.
SHOT 19 (00:17.5-00:18.2) — Bright Hallway
In a bright white hallway with wooden door frames, he glances sideways, then toward the camera.
SHOT 20 (00:18.2-00:18.9) — Big Smile
Close-up. He smiles broadly, looking to the side, while a woman with long hair walks past behind him.
SHOT 21 (00:18.9-00:19.4) — Glass of Water
Dark room. He stands smiling, holding a glass of water in a black-gloved hand.
SHOT 22 (00:19.4-00:20.2) — The Gesture
Medium close-up with window blinds behind him. He touches his lips with a black-gloved finger, then raises his hand in a small gesture.
SHOT 23 (00:20.2-00:21.0) — The Doorway
Full-length shot. He stands in a wooden doorway with the blinds behind him, black-gloved hands at his sides, looking at the camera.
SHOT 24 (00:21.0-00:21.7) — Come Here
Close-up in a dark teal office. He crooks a black-gloved finger toward the camera in a beckoning gesture, with a serious look.
SHOT 25 (00:21.7-00:22.2) — Stone Column
Wide shot in a dark room with a stone column and a wooden table with a plant. He stands, hands in his pockets.
SHOT 26 (00:22.2-00:23.0) — Hallway Finish
Bright hallway with wooden doors on both sides. He stands in the center, hands in his pockets, smiling at the camera. Slight push-in. Hold, then end.
