Coffee and a real smile — reel

Your video prompt

REFERENCE PRESENT: The attached person/persons are authoritative. Preserve every person's recognizable facial identity, age, facial structure, distinguishing facial characteristics, skin tone, ethnicity, natural body proportions and hairline. Preserve the number and identity of people in couple/group references. Never copy the preview model's face, complexion or identity. The preview supplies styling, pose, expression, wardrobe, composition, lighting and environment only. Cultural settings and styles, including K-drama, European editorial and retro Bollywood, do not determine ethnicity. Hair may be adapted when essential to the requested transformation; preserve the hairline and recognizable identity. Otherwise preserve or gently arrange the existing hair colour, length and texture. NO REFERENCE PRESENT: Default to an appropriate fictional Indian/South Asian adult man. Use believable diversity in Indian appearance, complexion, age and hair, with ordinary natural proportions; do not repeat a stereotypical face. Match age and number only where essential to this concept. CREATIVE DIRECTION: Create an 8-second vertical 9:16 reel. Scene: reference adult in their own casual outfit at a cafe window, holding one ceramic cup below the face. Lighting and composition: soft open window light; 85mm chest-up portrait. Keep faces, defining clothing and major accessories within the frame; use a deliberate central crop for a vertical preview. Styling and identity: Use comfortable, natural body positioning. Preserve actual body shape and facial asymmetry; do not beautify by changing identity. 0–2 seconds: Establish the complete scene: reference adult in their own casual outfit at a cafe window, holding one ceramic cup below the face. Keep the subject clearly visible before movement begins. Transition: Continuous shot. 2–6 seconds: The person lowers the cup slightly and smiles towards someone just beside the camera, then holds naturally. Transition: Return gently to the starting composition. 6–8 seconds: Settle into the starting composition and hold through second 8, with natural breathing or ambient motion only. The final hold is included in the eight-second duration. Transition: Loop-compatible hold. Continuity: keep the same people, product design, wardrobe, hairstyle and props across all shots; a chosen initial hairstyle adaptation stays consistent thereafter. No morphing, flashing, duplicated hands, changing logos or invented product claims. Retain realistic texture, plausible contact shadows and clear subject separation. No added text or watermarks. Suggested camera directions describe a look, not guaranteed tool controls. REEL TIMELINE (8 seconds total): 0–2 seconds: HOOK: Begin on the stationary cup beside the person. 2–6 seconds: PROGRESSION: They look up with a small spontaneous smile. 6–8 seconds: PAYOFF: Hold the relaxed face rather than a staged glamour pose. Keep the same subject count, identities, wardrobe and exact supplied products throughout. No morphing, flicker, added people or invented text. The final hold is included in the duration; do not force a loop that requires teleportation. Preview must communicate without audio. REFERENCE COMPATIBILITY: Preserve the reference age and all intended group identities. If a child, infant, maternity or group-specific concept conflicts with the supplied people, ask for suitable complete references rather than changing age, inventing pregnancy or replacing anyone.
