name: handdrawn-live-video-generator
description: Write or generate a continuous live-action scene with a rough luminous hand-drawn entity that contacts real objects, morphs, and escapes a slightly delayed handheld camera. Use for gentle surreal mixed-media shorts, not flat-vector-only animation or horror clips.

# Handdrawn Live-Action Fusion

Read the [portable workflow](../h3-prompt-writing/references/portable-workflow.md).
Keep the user's requested scope and language. A creative-prompt request delivers
the prompt, without generating media. For a requested finished video, prepare
the prompt and proceed under existing authorization using available tools.

## Creative contract

The default is a 15-second, 16:9 continuous scene in an everyday real space. A
flat luminous drawn entity visibly contacts a real hand/object early, transforms
as one traceable being, escapes through connected space, and the handheld camera
reacts slightly late. Duration and ratio follow the user's explicit choices.

Use rough crayon, chalk, colored pencil, pastel, or brush strokes with uneven fill,
frayed edges, line jitter, and frame-by-frame redraw. Keep the live-action setting
physically grounded and the drawn presence visibly planar. Uniform neon tubes,
plush characters, polished CG, and clean vector strokes would change this style.

Choose a fresh setting, entity, palette, contact mechanism, transformation chain,
escape route, camera reaction, and emotional ending within the user's constraints.
Do not ban an otherwise requested motif simply because an upstream example used
it. The tone is warm, playful, and gently surprising rather than threatening.

## Timed action structure

For a 15-second brief, use these intervals as a starting structure:

- 0–3s: establish obvious real/drawn contact, such as landing on a palm or slipping
  around a finger. The real participant reacts.
- 3–6s: begin a continuous morph while retaining a color smear, line, curve, or tail
  from the previous shape. Give it a playful action.
- 6–10s: let it escape into an adjacent part of the same space. The camera pans,
  tilts, or moves only after the entity starts leaving its view.
- 10–13s: add another readable interaction or surprise, keeping the same entity.
- 13–15s: extend an earlier drawn motif across the space into a gentle larger
  transformation, then resolve with a small emotional/comic detail.

Retiming changes the intervals proportionally or reorganizes beats; do not leave
15-second timestamps in a shorter prompt. Preserve a user's explicit final form
instead of forcing the spatial finale when it conflicts with their ending.

## Prompt delivery and rendering

For a same-language creative prompt, begin with duration, ratio, real space, and
the live-action/drawing fusion. Then describe phone-camera texture, the timed
action intervals, drawn material, camera lag, specific exclusions, and ambient
sound. Avoid unrelated headings or an essay when the user asked for copy-ready text.

For actual H3 generation, create a separate structured rendering prompt using the
appropriate base/Ref2VA guide: English prose with literal dialogue/visible text in
the requested language. Preserve the creative intent and actual media bindings.
Do not send unsupported model settings or promise exact first-frame conditioning
merely because an image is present.

## Review

Check clear early physical contact, one continuous entity, connected geography,
retained shape motifs, delayed camera reaction, rough planar drawing, and a
non-threatening ending. Avoid jump scares, sudden blackouts, menacing anatomy, and
unrequested extra characters. Deliver the actual prompt/video and state any
remaining contact, continuity, texture, or camera-timing defects.
