Ant-Scale POV Sprint Through a Construction Site
A macro POV prompt that puts the viewer at insect scale as an ant sprints across a dusty construction site, climbing objects and dodging debris and human feet. It relies on exaggerated macro depth, fast ground-level camera movement, and vibration-heavy sound design for a micro-epic survival tone.
