Image prompt 1

"prompt": "A hand-drawn anime character sheet featuring a full cast of six stick figure characters, laid out as a proper animation model sheet on a single sheet of white animation paper. Every character is a simple stick figure drawn in clean black ink - round head, straight line spine, line arms and legs, dot eyes and simple mouths - but each is given clear generic anime trope styling so they read instantly as archetypes. The lineup across the sheet - a spiky-haired shonen hero with a headband and a determined grin; a cool rival with long swept bangs, a scarf, and a katana on his back; a huge muscular bruiser with a bulked-up body, tiny head, and crossed arms; a small energetic girl with twin tails, a big ribbon, and star-shaped eyes; a mysterious hooded figure in a long cloak with a shadowed face and one glowing eye; and a smug glasses type with a lab coat and a sharp smirk. All six stand in a neutral lineup row at consistent height with light blue construction guide lines through head, shoulders, and hips. Below is a row of expression heads for each - happy, angry, shocked, smug. Below that a row of action poses - running, leaping, punching, blocking, drawing a sword, landing in a fighting stance - with motion arcs. Handwritten pencil notes, arrows, and name boxes label each character. Visible peg holes, light pencil under-sketch, faint smudges. Shot flat from directly above, evenly lit. Clean black ink on white paper, blue pencil guides, professional model sheet layout, crisp and readable."

"prompt": "The cluttered work desk of an anime animator, shot from a high angle looking down at the whole workspace, warm and lived-in. At the center is a backlit animation light table with a glowing frosted glass surface, a metal peg bar clamped along its edge, and a stack of thin animation paper pegged onto it. The top sheet shows a group of hand-drawn stick figure characters in clean black ink, each with generic anime trope styling - a spiky-haired hero with a headband, a scarfed rival with a katana, a huge muscular bruiser, a twin-tailed girl with a ribbon, a hooded cloaked figure, a glasses type in a lab coat - drawn mid action pose, with faint ghosted frames showing through the paper beneath. More loose sheets of stick figure poses and fight choreography are spread across the desk, some overlapping, a few pinned to a corkboard behind. The desk is dense with an animator's tools - sharpened pencils in a jar, blue and red col-erase pencils, a kneaded eraser, a metal ruler, pencil shavings, a stack of exposure sheets covered in handwritten timing notes, a hole punch, sticky notes, a cutting mat. A cup of half-finished coffee on a stained coaster, a desk lamp arcing over the workspace, a drawing tablet and stylus, a monitor showing a frame-by-frame timeline, headphones draped over the corner. Warm lamp light pools over the desk against a dim room, the glowing light table the brightest point, soft shadows, dust in the air. Hyperrealistic photography, cozy cluttered animator studio, warm practical lighting, 8K render."

Video prompt 1
[1] Mode: Image-to-video using the attached references: image 1 for the six stick fighters, image 2 for the animator's desk and lighting. Replace the drawing on the light board with these STICK FIGURE characters.
PART 1 OF 3. Opening third of one continuous battle. Ends on a specific frame Part 2 opens on.
CORE CONCEPT: the desk is photoreal live action. The six stick figures are hand-drawn pencil line art ON the paper on the light board, and they come alive and fight in flat 2D animation across the page. Camera stays in the real room looking at the page.
MULTI-SHOT edit of SEPARATE CLIPS joined by HARD CUTS, NOT one continuous take. Angle and shot size change at every cut. Fast paced, action packed anime.
DIALOGUE RULE: NO DIALOGUE. No talking, speech, captions. Music and sound effects only.
NO GORE. Defeats are comedic cartoon knockouts, X eyes, poofs, and scribbles. Nobody bleeds.
FIGHTERS (hand-drawn pencil stick figures, identical every shot):
TAIGA: spiky-haired stick hero with a headband, determined grin, fists up.
KAI: black-haired stick rival with a red scarf and a katana, cool and calm.
GORI: hugely muscular bald stick bruiser, arms crossed, stoic and angry.
HANA: tiny cheerful stick girl with brown pigtails, a pink bow, sparkling star eyes.
SHADOW: a black hooded cloaked stick figure with glowing white eyes.
DR. RAY: bald stick scientist with round glasses and a lab coat.
SETTING: a cluttered animator's desk at night, glowing light board, warm desk lamp, scattered sketch papers, pencils, coffee mug, cork board.
SHOTS:
1 (0:00-0:02.5) WIDE, the desk: The dim animator's desk, lamp glowing. Camera pushes toward the light board where all six stick figures stand in a line on the page, still pencil drawings. HARD CUT.
2 (0:02.5-0:04) CLOSE on the page: Taiga's drawn face suddenly SNAPS to a determined grin. He cracks his knuckles. The drawings are alive. HARD CUT.
3 (0:04-0:06.5) TOP-DOWN on the page: Taiga rockets across the paper at Kai in a blur of speed lines. Kai whips his katana out and their strike CLASHES in a burst of drawn impact lines and ink splatter. HARD CUT.
4 (0:06.5-0:09) ANGLED, low across the desk: GORI SLAMS down between them with a massive drawn shockwave, impact rings blasting across the page. The real paper physically crumples and the light board rattles. HARD CUT.
5 (0:09-0:12) CLOSE on the page: Dr. Ray smugly fires a zapping gadget beam. Shadow melts sideways to dodge it. Gori's enormous fist swings in and FLATTENS Dr. Ray into the paper, leaving him squashed with X eyes. HARD CUT.
6 (0:12-0:15) OVERHEAD, THE FINAL FRAME: On the glowing page, Taiga is frozen mid-air on the LEFT with a fist cocked back, Kai skids on the RIGHT with his katana raised, GORI stands center rear with arms spread roaring, Hana crouches front-right with sparkling star eyes, Shadow is a dark blur behind Gori, and Dr. Ray lies flattened bottom-left with X eyes. Speed lines everywhere. Hold on this exact composition.
AUDIO: driving fast anime battle music with taiko drums and guitar. Pencil-on-paper scratching as the drawings move, paper rustling, whooshing speed lines, sword rings, heavy impact booms, comedic squash sounds. Quiet night studio room tone. Music and sound effects only. NO DIALOGUE. No subtitles.
STYLE: photoreal cinematic live-action desk with warm lamp light, shallow depth of field and film grain, containing flat 2D hand-drawn pencil line-art animation on the paper. Anime action tropes: speed lines, impact frames, motion smears, dramatic poses. The stick figures always stay simple pencil line drawings.
NEGATIVE: stick figures becoming 3D, characters leaving the paper as real objects, gore, blood, injury, realistic violence, dialogue, talking, captions, subtitles, on-screen text, one continuous shot, single take, crossfades, dissolves, changing character designs, extra fighters, duplicate characters, slow motion, sluggish action, colored characters, deformed drawings

3 (0:04.5-0:07.5) TOP-DOWN, fast: Kai slashes clean through Shadow, but Shadow scatters into ink and reforms behind him. A dark strike sends Kai tumbling off the edge of the paper, gone. HARD CUT.
4 (0:07.5-0:10.5) ANGLED, low across the desk: Taiga's headband whips and drawn aura lines erupt around him in a power-up. He rockets in and lands a huge fist on Gori, impact frame flashing white, Gori sliding back. HARD CUT.
5 (0:10.5-0:13) CLOSE: Gori grabs Taiga and HURLS him aside, then turns and SLAMS Shadow flat into the paper. Shadow bursts into a scribbled smear. Pencil shavings jump on the desk. HARD CUT.
6 (0:13-0:15) OVERHEAD, THE FINAL FRAME: Gori stands center on the crumpled glowing page, fists raised, roaring. Taiga is sprawled dazed at bottom-left. Shadow is a scribbled smear on the RIGHT.

2 (0:02-0:04.5) TOP-DOWN, fast: Gori charges the dazed Taiga, winds up an enormous fist, and BLASTS him clean off the edge of the paper in a burst of impact lines. Taiga is gone. HARD CUT.
3 (0:04.5-0:07) LOW ANGLE across the desk: Gori turns slowly toward the far right of the page, towering, fists flexing, menace lines radiating. Tiny Hana tilts her head and smiles brightly, unbothered. HARD CUT.
4 (0:07-0:09.5) CLOSE on Hana: With a cheerful sparkle, Hana hauls an ABSURDLY MASSIVE cartoon cannon out from behind her back, a comically enormous drawn weapon many times her size, and hefts it with a huge happy grin. HARD CUT.
5 (0:09.5-0:12.5) WIDE on the page: Gori charges. Hana FIRES. A colossal drawn beam blast erupts across the page in a white flash, recoil rocketing her backward, and Gori is blown clean off the paper in a spray of scribbles. The real paper flutters and the light board glows white. HARD CUT.
6 (0:12.5-0:15) THE FINAL FRAME, pulling back: Hana stands alone on the scorched glowing page in a triumphant victory pose, the giant cannon over one shoulder, sparkles bursting around her, the others reduced to scribbles at the edges. The camera pulls back to reveal the whole animator's desk, lamp glowing, the drawing now perfectly still. Hold.
AUDIO: fast anime battle music surging to a triumphant finale. Pencil scratching, paper flutter, speed line whooshes, thunderous impacts, a cheerful sparkle chime as Hana grins, an absurdly huge cannon cocking sound, then an enormous beam blast boom, settling into quiet studio room tone. Music and sound effects only. NO DIALOGUE. No subtitles.
