Traditional Chinese Dancer on Dark Water with Golden Sparks
A girl in traditional Chinese attire performs an emotional dance on still, dark water, with the camera pushing in on her face and pulling back to reveal sweeping sleeve movements. Varied low and high angles turn her steps into patterns on the water, while golden sparks, cherry blossom petals, and golden ripples erupt around her.
Prompt (original, unmodified)
A girl in traditional Chinese attire begins her emotional and passionate dance on the still, dark water. The camera moves in to capture her face full of emotion, then pulls back sharply to reveal the sweeping gestures of her long sleeves. The shots are filmed from various angles - from below to accentuate the power and grace of her movements, and from above, turning her dance into a mesmerizing pattern on the water. Each of her steps and turns is filled with passion. Golden sparks and cherry blossom petals swirl around her, and the water beneath her feet erupts in golden circles in time with her expressive movements.
