Prompt (original, unmodified)
Subject: Subject 1: A cute and stylish skeleton girl. She wears a navy sailor-style jacket, a pink pleated skirt, and a wide-brimmed hat adorned with a small skull. Her skeleton fingers are highly flexible, delicate, and expressive. For consistency in appearance and character, please refer to reference image. Environment: A high-quality 3D miniature diorama with a whimsical, clay-animation style. A small white grand piano sits on a stage with a stone-like texture. Surrounding her are several friendly, glowing white ghosts with simple black eyes, shaped like draped fabric. A dreamlike blue architectural space. Warm, fantastical light emanates from the ghosts and small lanterns. Toy-like texture. Mood: Eccentric, elegant, and cozy, yet somewhat eerie. The performance is not chaotic but deliberate, creating a magical and graceful impression. Timeline: [00:00-00:02] Shot 1: Wide-angle POV, slow push-in. A skeletal girl sits elegantly at the white grand piano on the stone stage. She raises her skeletal hands, slightly tucks her posture, and after snapping her head up to look straight ahead, begins to play the keys smoothly. Audio: A beautiful, elegant classical piano intro. [00:02-00:03] Shot 2: Hard cut to a medium shot. Stable movement via gimbal. She is in complete control of the melody. Her skeletal fingers press the keys with clear, legible movements in a flowing cycle, gliding smoothly across the surface. Friendly, glowing white ghosts sway and bounce gently in time with the music’s rhythm. Audio: A fast-paced, rhythmic classical piano melody syncs perfectly with her finger movements. [00:03-00:07] Shot 3: Close-up, tracking slightly. Focus on her face and the piano keys. She concludes her performance with a dramatic finale and removes her hands from the keys as the ghosts begin to glow more brightly in the warm lighting. She turns toward the camera and nods gently. Audio: The final, elegant piano chord resonates, followed by a soft, magical chorus.
