Step 1Lock the character
Every prompt begins with the same description, word for word. For video, the pack's outfit and pose images are registered as the character reference so the face and costume hold across shots.
Same elderly man about seventy as the reference images: warm tan weathered skin, narrow brown eyes, white swept-back hair tied in a small low bun, white moustache and short pointed beard, visible forehead and eye wrinkles; keep his age, never make him younger. Cream mandarin-collar shirt with knot buttons, black wide trousers. Anime illustration style exactly like the references.
He wears the cream mandarin-collar shirt with knot buttons and keeps his age of about seventy.

Step 2Make a product still
One image of the product, made from pack images, then reused so the product looks the same in every shot. Brand names are added in the edit, never by the model.
Prop Scene
Anime illustration style exactly like the references. Product shot in exactly the same art style as the references. The same small juniper bonsai with a curved trunk in the same brown rectangular ceramic pot as the first reference, with small black pruning shears and a tiny rake beside it on a weathered wooden table in a calm sunlit workshop. Generous empty space on the left for a title. 16:9 still. No people, no text, no logos.

Step 6Cut the ad
- Each clip is trimmed to its cleanest span. When the model added its own camera cut, that take was dropped and the shot made again.
- Short captions sit bottom left; “Demo ad · fictional product” stays top right for the whole ad.
- The ad ends on the product still with a slow push-in and the brand, product name and tagline added as text.
- The video on this page is silent. Add your own music and sound that you have the rights to use.
