Rusted City Bus Transforms Into Mechanical T-Rex
A gritty cyberpunk spot where an abandoned city bus violently morphs into a giant mechanical T-Rex, with rivets popping, bumper jaws splitting open, and arms bursting through windows. The sequence uses a slow push-in that becomes a low-angle wheel-height tracking orbit, emphasizing physics-aware metal deformation and macro detail. It ends on a text overlay promoting a motion-transfer model.

Prompt (original, unmodified)
[Cinematography]: Cinematic 4K resolution, shot at 24fps with a cinematic cadence. The sequence begins with a slow push-in shot, transitioning into a dynamic, low-angle tracking shot circling the subject at wheel-height. Highly detailed focus on physics-aware metal deformation, weight simulation, and macro details of dripping rivets and grinding joints. [Subject]: A rusted, dark green city bus that undergoes a monstrous transformation into a massive, mechanical T-Rex. It features a buckling roof, popping rivets, a front bumper that splits into a jaw with hydraulic teeth, a rear axle tail, and armored side panels. [Action]: The abandoned bus shudders violently before its roof buckles from an internal force. Rivets pop in sequence along the side panel. The bumper hinges open like a jaw, the chassis lifts, and two mechanical arms punch through the glass windows, sending shards flying. The fully formed mech T-Rex stands upright, exhaust pipes venting steam, and takes a heavy step that cracks the asphalt, creating a shockwave that bounces a nearby parked car. Final text overlay reads: 'Transfer any motion. To any form. WAN 2.7.' [Context]: An abandoned, rain-soaked city intersection at night, featuring deep puddles on cracked asphalt and a nearby parked car, surrounded by the glow of off-screen neon signs. [Style & Ambiance]: Gritty sci-fi cyberpunk aesthetic with dramatic, rain-soaked night lighting. Vibrant neon reflections bounce off the wet asphalt, shattered glass, and rusted metal. Heavy atmospheric film grain, cinematic contrast, and an intense, heavy industrial mood.
