FIRST-FRAME FLASH CUT: the supplied eight-panel storyboard is a REFERENCE SLATE ONLY. Display for at most ONE opening frame, then IMMEDIATELY HARD CUT to full-screen live-action shot 1. No hold on the sheet, no zoom into panels, no dissolve. Every later frame is full-screen moving cinema; the grid and film notes never return.

20-second music-video scene: Rune stands beside the grave. Eight distinct shots in the supplied order, read left to right then down. Use clear hard cuts with matched screen direction and gestures across adjoining shots. Normal-speed intimate human gestures, natural breaths, attentive reactions and warm pauses. No exaggerated pantomime.

CAST AND IDENTITY LOCK:
Chaz is a young adult blond man with visible red forehead band, red hunter clothes, silver chest and shoulder armor, no cape. One ordinary straight steel sword. Impulsive but brave.
Rune is an adult man with blue hair tied in a low ponytail, green gold-trimmed tunic, ivory cloak, white gloves and boots. His crystal-tipped staff is as tall as he is and always visibly outside his body. Calm, decisive sorcerer.

LOCATION AND STAGING:
Alys’s grave on a quiet Motavian hillside, unlettered simple stone marker at right, evening wind in dry grass. Chaz kneels left of marker on his RIGHT knee, LEFT foot planted, left thigh horizontal, back naturally curved. Rune stands one step behind him. Rune’s full-height staff planted to his own right outside his cloak.

EIGHT SHOTS:
1. 24mm wide: two small figures beside the grave under a vast amber evening sky.
2. 50mm side full-body: Chaz lowers a small bunch of desert flowers with his right hand from a stable one-knee stance.
3. 70mm detail: flowers rest on soil; his fingers release them and withdraw cleanly.
4. 85mm Chaz profile: he looks at the marker, jaw tight, then lets out a shaking breath.
5. 50mm Rune medium: Rune’s practiced composure softens as he watches his grieving friend.
6. 70mm contact: Rune places his free left hand on Chaz’s right armored shoulder; staff stays in his right hand away from both bodies.
7. 35mm two-shot: Chaz covers Rune’s resting hand briefly with his own, accepting the support.
8. 24mm wide: Chaz rises using his planted left foot; the two remain side by side facing the grave as grass moves around them.

PHOTOGRAPHY: Live-action 35mm science-fantasy adventure film, grounded 1980s cyberpunk post-apocalyptic design. Match the supplied actor faces exactly: natural skin pores and subtle asymmetry, practical worn fabric and metal, real hair strands, restrained expressions, physically motivated amber and cyan lighting. Maintain the same photographic art direction across every panel. Deep layered compositions and readable silhouettes. Avoid waxy skin, anime faces and glossy game-render surfaces.

CONTINUITY: One instance of each named character per shot. Keep the same face, age, hair, outfit, anatomy and rigid prop geometry. Hands transfer objects only when the receiving hand has a secure grip. Bodies face their actual interaction partner or attack target. Maintain established size relationships and grounded weight. Normal real-time motion throughout; no slow motion, speed ramps or frozen tableaux. Quiet footage for a music video, no spoken dialogue or score. FIRST-FRAME FLASH CUT is mandatory: remove the entire reference sheet immediately after its first frame; no borders, captions or labels in the cinematic footage.
