Handcrafted Animation Video Briefs

六条原创动画简报——毛毡定格、手绘角色、折纸标题背景、动态文字排版、黏土地貌，以及一个自作主张的影子——每条都带节拍时间线与材质连续性锁定。

这些简报把手工质感当作导演选择而非帧率参数：拼贴纸圆顶以可触知的小步幅转动、毛毡缝线清晰可见、音床里有纸板摩擦声。其中一条是原样文字的动态排版测试，引号内的词必须一字不改地渲染出来以便评估效果；另一条让角色的投影自行动作，同时禁止出现多重影子、多余肢体或影子上的五官。每条简报都以 LOCK、AUDIO、AVOID 段落收尾，锁定材质纹理、角色比例与机构件数量在全片保持一致。

# FLUX 3 animation and design prompts

Six original animation briefs. Handmade cadence and stylized material are creative directions, not claims about configurable output frame rates.

## N01 — The button observatory

**Use:** handcrafted miniature story  
**Mode:** text to video · **Format:** 16:9, 18 seconds  
**Adjust:** felt colors; preserve character and mechanism count.

```text
A tiny felt astronomer with a rust-colored cap operates a cardboard observatory on a worktable. The dome is made of stitched blue paper, and its simple telescope points through one opening. Original character and set.
00:00–00:06 — Locked miniature-wide shot. The astronomer turns a visible wooden crank. The dome moves in small tactile stop-motion increments around the fixed telescope.
00:06–00:12 — A loose white button rolls into the opening and comes to rest beside the telescope. The astronomer bends to inspect its four holes as if they were a star chart.
00:12–00:18 — The character carefully places the button on a little paper pedestal, then aims the telescope toward it. Hold the absurdly serious pose.
LOCK: Felt seams, cap shape, four button holes, telescope size and crank connection. No real human hand enters.
AUDIO: Cardboard friction, wood ticks, one button rattle and room hush. No speech or recognizable melody.
AVOID: glossy plastic, smooth live-action character motion, floating gears, real night sky replacing the tabletop, existing mascots, text or watermark.

## N02 — The umbrella diagram

**Use:** original hand-drawn character animation  
**Mode:** text to video · **Format:** 16:9, 18 seconds  
**Adjust:** drawing materials, keeping the visual joke intact.

```text
Use clean original 2D linework, restrained cel shading and a painted art-classroom background. Two adult design students examine a small paper umbrella on a desk. One wears round glasses and a mustard vest; the other a teal overshirt.
00:00–00:06 — Medium two-shot. The first student points to a charcoal drawing of heavy rain above a sketch of the umbrella. No readable writing.
00:06–00:12 — The second student opens the real paper umbrella under the drawing, then slowly slides the entire drawing beneath it. Keep paper stiffness and hand positions plausible.
00:12–00:18 — Both look at the now-covered storm drawing. The first student says in Japanese, exactly: "これなら、雨も休めるね。" Finish with a small smile, not a slapstick reaction.
AUDIO: Paper, a delicate umbrella hinge and dry conversational Japanese. No music.
LOCK: Two students, one umbrella, one drawing, same desk and light.
AVOID: franchise resemblance, chibi transformation, extra dialogue, floating rain from the drawing, automatic subtitles, logos or watermark.
```

## N03 — Folded light opener

**Use:** title sequence background  
**Mode:** text to video · **Format:** 2:1, 12 seconds  
**Adjust:** paper hue; add final typography in editing.

```text
Create a typography-free motion-design opener using one long strip of matte ivory paper on a dark studio tabletop. The paper is the only moving object; show deliberate stylized animation, not a physics demonstration.
00:00–00:04 — Orthographic overhead camera. The strip forms two broad folds, leaving its continuous edge visible. Soft side light creates readable shadows.
00:04–00:08 — The folds open slowly to reveal a clean rectangular central space. The paper slides outward without breaking into extra pieces.
00:08–00:12 — Stop all motion and hold the empty center for an editor's title. Keep generous clear margins, no generated lettering.
AUDIO: Two subtle paper creases, a soft slide and one second of silence at the end. No speech or song.
LOCK: One continuous strip, consistent width, ivory material and fixed camera.
AVOID: torn edges, metal reflections, confetti, spontaneous letters, camera rotation, ornamental symbols, logos or watermark.
```

## N04 — Three words, three cards

**Use:** exact-copy motion typography test  
**Mode:** text to video · **Format:** 3:4, 15 seconds  
**Adjust:** card colors only; keep the quoted text unchanged for evaluation.

```text
Create a flat editorial animation with three large paper cards on a warm-gray background. Camera remains orthographic. Each card carries one short word, centered in a plain readable sans serif.
00:00–00:05 — First card enters from above and stops. Its exact English text is "LISTEN". Hold it fully readable for two seconds.
00:05–00:10 — First card moves to the upper third. A second card enters beneath it with exact simplified Chinese text "倾听". Keep the lines separate and stable.
00:10–00:15 — Third card enters at the bottom with exact Spanish text "ESCUCHA". Hold all three cards still for the final three seconds.
AUDIO: One soft paper tap for each arrival, quiet studio ambience. No speech or music.
LOCK: Exactly three cards and three lines; unchanged letterforms after arrival. These are generated-text tests requiring human review.
AVOID: translations appearing twice, random glyphs, distorted Chinese strokes, perspective tilt, extra punctuation, captions, logos or watermark.
```

## N05 — Clay coastline

**Use:** stop-motion spatial transformation  
**Mode:** text to video · **Format:** 16:9, 20 seconds  
**Adjust:** miniature terrain colors; retain the single-channel layout.

```text
Build a small tactile clay landscape on a visible rectangular tabletop base. Tan hills border one narrow blue clay river reaching a flat blue sea. This is an artistic miniature, not a geography lesson.
00:00–00:06 — Locked overhead-wide view. The river surface advances in subtle hand-animated ripples while its banks stay fixed.
00:06–00:14 — Three small white clay boats, already visible at the river mouth, turn one at a time toward the open sea. Keep each boat a simple solid shape.
00:14–00:20 — Camera gently lowers to an oblique angle, revealing fingerprints and the table edge. Boats stop within the existing water area. Hold the miniature scale.
AUDIO: Soft clay handling-inspired Foley and very faint room ambience, not ocean-sized surf.
LOCK: Three boats, river course, base dimensions and visibly handmade texture.
AVOID: real ocean transition, boats duplicating, terrain growing, hidden cuts, photoreal people, place names, title text or watermark.
```

## N06 — A shadow with manners

**Use:** playful character animation and timing  
**Mode:** text to video · **Format:** 1:1, 15 seconds  
**Adjust:** original character costume, maintaining one cast shadow.

```text
An original flat-illustrated courier with a square blue bag stands before a small yellow door. One long dark shadow extends to the right. Use a simple textured-paper background, not an existing character style.
00:00–00:05 — Courier raises a hand to knock. The shadow politely knocks first, one beat ahead. This intentional impossible timing is the only visual gag.
00:05–00:10 — Courier looks down and waits. The shadow straightens, returns to alignment, then makes a small apologetic bow.
00:10–00:15 — Courier finally knocks once; both real hand and shadow now move together. The door opens a few centimeters, but no new character is revealed.
AUDIO: Two different knock moments, light fabric rustle and a soft hinge. No speech, music or laughter.
LOCK: Same bag, door size, paper texture, character proportions and shadow direction.
AVOID: multiple shadows, extra limbs, uncontrolled morphing, facial features on the shadow, readable signs, logos or watermark.
