Prompt (original, unmodified)
Create a cinematic, photorealistic lifestyle video of a young East Asian woman in a cozy modern apartment by the sea. The video has a warm, natural morning atmosphere with soft daylight coming through large windows, realistic skin texture, subtle facial expressions, natural body movements, shallow depth of field, and smooth cinematic camera motion. Scene 1 — Bedroom: A young woman with long straight dark hair, wearing a light beige/pink satin pajama set, sits on the edge of her bed looking sleepy. She gently yawns and rubs her eyes. The bedroom is minimal and modern, with a neatly made bed, wooden furniture, soft curtains, and large windows letting in diffused natural light. Scene 2 — Bed: She pulls and adjusts the duvet, then sits and stretches slightly on the bed. Capture her natural sleepy morning routine with realistic movements and a calm atmosphere. Scene 3 — Leaving Bedroom: She stands up and slowly walks toward the bedroom doorway. The camera remains cinematic and slightly distant, showing the warm wooden interior and softly illuminated bedroom in the background. Scene 4 — Cooking: Cut to the kitchen. Close-up of a black electric sandwich/waffle-style press on the kitchen counter. The woman pours smooth light-brown batter into the heated mold. Use detailed macro shots of the batter flowing into the appliance. Scene 5 — Preparing Food: She operates the sandwich maker on the kitchen counter and carefully checks the food while cooking. Show realistic hand movements, steam/heat details, kitchen reflections, and natural daylight coming through the nearby window. Scene 6 — Eating: She opens the appliance and removes a freshly cooked golden-brown waffle/pastry. She holds it with both hands, takes a bite, then smiles naturally with a satisfied expression.
