Prompt (original, unmodified)
Use @Image1 as the chef character reference. Keep the chef’s face, outfit, hairstyle, proportions, and anime style consistent throughout. Create a 10-second horizontal 16:9 anime cooking video showing shrimp tempura preparation in a fast cinematic step-by-step montage. Each second shows a new cooking step. Style: premium Japanese anime food commercial, warm kitchen lighting, beautiful food close-ups, appetizing golden textures, soft steam, clean wooden counter, smooth camera motion, shallow depth of field, elegant and satisfying. No subtitles, no text, no logo, no watermark. 0:00–0:01 Close-up of raw shrimp on a cutting board. The chef carefully removes the vein/intestines with a small knife. 0:01–0:02 The chef sprinkles salt over the shrimp. Fine grains fall in close-up. 0:02–0:03 The shrimp is dipped into smooth egg batter in a bowl. 0:03–0:04 The battered shrimp is coated evenly in golden bread crumbs. 0:04–0:05 Four breaded shrimp are lined up neatly on a tray. The chef lightly seasons or adjusts them. 0:05–0:06 Close-up of hot deep-fry oil. The chef uses chopsticks to drip a little batter into the oil to test the heat. Small bubbles appear immediately. 0:06–0:07 The chef gently places the shrimp into the hot oil. Oil bubbles actively around them. 0:07–0:08 The chef lifts the fried shrimp out with chopsticks. They are crispy and golden, with a little steam. 0:08–0:09 One shrimp is cut in half, revealing a juicy inside and crunchy coating. 0:09–0:10 Final plating shot: shrimp tempura arranged beautifully on a plate with shredded cabbage, dipping sauce, and lemon. The chef squeezes lemon over the shrimp. End on an appetizing hero shot. Use smooth quick cuts, macro food shots, soft highlights, rich golden colors, and a refined anime aesthetic similar to a high-end Japanese food animation.
