Part 1: Use @[storyboard1 ref] only as the director-approved storyboard reference for visible panel order, staging, action, character placement, prop/effect states, and spatial cues shown in the sheet. Follow panel order exactly and do not invent alternative coverage or add story details absent from the storyboard or this prompt. Do not render the storyboard sheet itself, transfer its sketch medium, or inherit character faces, body proportions, wardrobe design, colors, drawing shapes, or simplified proxy anatomy from the storyboard. Recreate the filmed sequence represented by the panels rather than the physical storyboard artwork. Use @[char ref] as C1 is a small fledgling bird with short wings and soft down, C2 and C3 are slightly larger flight-capable birds, and commuters are ordinary human background figures.
VISUAL STYLE: Cinematic animated urban fable with warm daylight, clean city geometry, expressive body language, grounded scale contrast, soft feather motion, and polished character animation. AUDIO: No background music or score. Use only diegetic city ambience, bird chirps, elevator chimes, wing foley, button click, rooftop wind, distant traffic, and brief silence at the edge. ENVIRONMENT: A bright city sidewalk connects to a glass skyscraper lobby, elevator bank, high-rise corridor, and open rooftop terrace with a low parapet. EMOTIONAL GUIDANCE: C1 moves from embarrassed shrinkage to stubborn effort, then to tense stillness as height becomes real.
BEATS: P01: 35mm medium-wide at sidewalk planter height; C1 makes a tiny failed hop below the skyscraper while C2 and C3 glide easily above the entrance, establishing the glass doors, elevator lobby, and tower scale; SFX small wing flutters and traffic wash. P02: 50mm medium close; C2 and C3 perch above C1 with open-beak mocking gestures and confident wing spreads, and C1 tucks low before lifting its eye-line toward the skyscraper doors in the background; SFX sharp chirps and a city hush around C1. P03: 24mm wide low tracking; C1 darts through automatic glass doors between moving human shoes, leaving C2 and C3 outside as small silhouettes while the elevator bank becomes the target; SFX door hiss, footsteps, quick claws. P04: 35mm elevator interior from floor level; C1 slips into the crowded elevator beside commuter shoes as the doors close, the button panel sits high on frame right, and C1 stares up at it; SFX elevator ding, fabric rustle, doors sliding shut. P05: 50mm medium inside the elevator; after the commuters exit on intermediate floors, C1 stands alone under the tall control panel, braces, and starts a hard, awkward flap upward toward the top-floor button; SFX fading footsteps, wing strain, elevator hum. P06: macro insert to medium; C1 forces a short shaky flight, jabs the highest floor button with its beak, and drops back as the lit button confirms the ascent; SFX button click, feather scrape, motor rising. P07: 24mm wide rooftop reveal; the top doors open and C1 hops out onto the terrace, crossing wind-swept concrete toward the far corner parapet with the city skyline dropping behind it; SFX elevator doors, sudden wind, distant horns. P08: 35mm high-angle over-shoulder at the roof corner; C1 reaches the parapet lip, looks straight down into the deep street canyon, and holds half-open wings as the frame hangs on the vertigo and decision; SFX wind thins to silence over distant traffic.
Part 2: Extend @[video1] for 15s. Use @[char ref] as C1 is the same small fledgling bird with short wings and soft down from the prior rooftop-edge sequence.
VISUAL STYLE: Cinematic animated urban fable with high-speed aerial motion, clean sunlit tower geometry, vertigo depth, elegant wing control, glass reflections kept readable, and a soft green landing contrast. AUDIO: No background music or score. Use only diegetic rooftop wind, rushing air, wing foley, window whoosh, interior flutter, distant traffic, grass impact, one happy chirp, and breathlike silence after landing. ENVIRONMENT: A high rooftop drops into a glass city canyon, a lower building with two aligned open windows, and a sunlit green park clearing. EMOTIONAL GUIDANCE: C1 turns fear into control as the drop becomes elegant flight and resolves in visible joy after landing.
BEATS: P01: 24mm rear follow at the same roof-corner edge; C1 leans past the parapet, half-open wings trembling, then pushes off into empty air while the street canyon fills the frame below; SFX wind pull and tiny claw scrape. P02: 24mm rear follow over the edge; C1 drops fast with wings tucked, the camera dives behind its back, and tower walls stretch upward on both sides to create vertigo; SFX rushing air swells. P03: 24mm rear follow in the fall; C1 snaps both wings open, wobbles once, then catches lift and bends the vertical drop into a clean forward glide; SFX wing snap, air pressure shift. P04: 24mm rear chase between buildings; C1 accelerates into a beautiful high-speed line, banking through a narrow tower gap while the camera stays locked behind its tail; SFX fast wind ribbon and passing glass hum. P05: 24mm rear chase toward a lower building; C1 aims at an open window, folds tight, and shoots through the frame into the interior as the city glare cuts to indoor shadow; SFX window whoosh and paper flutter. P06: 24mm rear chase inside to outside; C1 threads across the room past blurred desks and lights, reopens its wings, and exits through the opposite open window back into sunlight; SFX room rush, startled fabric, second whoosh. P07: 24mm rear follow descending; C1 banks out over treetops toward a green clearing, speed softens, and the camera widens slightly from behind as grass replaces concrete below; SFX wind easing, leaves brushing air. P08: 24mm rear follow landing; C1 flares both wings, touches down in the green field, skids one step, then pops into a tiny joyful hop with wings lifted as the camera settles behind it; SFX grass scrape, soft thump, happy chirp, silence.
