Prompt recipe
Create an 8-second 16:9 landscape motion video.
A cel-shaded anime hero with a consistent costume and silhouette accelerates into a dynamic run cycle and ends in a balanced hero stance.
Camera: smooth side-tracking shot with gentle parallax; keep the character profile readable and centered.
Motion and timing: fast but legible stride cycle, stable anatomy, strong anticipation, physically coherent follow-through.
Scene and light: graphic dusk city layers with three clear depth planes and warm rim light.
Continuity: preserve face design, hair shape, costume markings, limb proportions, and line-art style.
Avoid: leg swapping, foot sliding, costume mutation, smeared face, random camera rotation, and background flicker.
Direction note
Three simple background planes communicate speed more reliably than a hyper-detailed city. The final stance gives the motion a deliberate endpoint and makes failed generations easier to identify.
