Original prompt

Create a 30-second, 16:9 live-action-style performance film in one continuous shot. Follow one original female singer from a dressing room through a corridor onto a red-and-black stage. Keep her face, curls, dark green outfit and earpiece consistent.

0–6s: Begin beside the dressing-room mirror in a medium shot. She checks her earpiece while a staff member signals from the doorway. Retreat slowly to leave room for her to stand and turn; do not create a duplicate person in the mirror.
6–13s: Track backward ahead of her into the corridor, maintaining a medium framing. A staff member offers one microphone from the side. Show her hand receiving it clearly, with only one transfer.
13–21s: Two dancers join at the corridor exit, leaving a clear path. Follow their walk toward the stage; use the doorway and changing illumination to explain the transition, without cuts or blackouts.
21–27s: She reaches the spotlight with the dancers on either side. Move along a wide arc to her rear three-quarter view, revealing the performance space while preserving readable silhouettes.
27–30s: Pull back gently to include singer, stage and audience, then settle as she takes her opening pose.

Sound: footsteps, fabric and the microphone handover, followed by increasingly distinct applause. Use an original instrumental bed, no existing song or imitated singer. No dialogue, captions or recognizable branding. Preserve believable weight and hand contact. No costume changes, duplicate microphones, wall penetration or teleportation.
