Earthquake Destroys City in Tracking Shot
A continuous street-level tracking shot races through a crowded city avenue as an earthquake tears the ground apart. Cars tilt, buildings split, and the camera weaves through falling debris before a skyscraper collapses and a dust shockwave chases the camera as it pulls back.
Prompt (original, unmodified)
Tracking shot at street level, the camera races through a crowded city avenue as the ground begins to violently crack from an earthquake. Cars tilt, buildings split open. The camera weaves between falling debris, then tilts up as a massive skyscraper collapses forward. The shot pulls back rapidly as the shockwave chases the camera, swallowing everything in dust.
