Veo-3 fast on Flow 🏷️ A hyper-realistic, and intensely dramatic video. In a dimly lit room, an older person slides a set of military dog tags across a table to a younger person, who has a slow, devastating realization upon reading them.", "lighting": { "type": "Low-key, single-source lighting (chiaroscuro)", "source": "A single, bare, low-wattage bulb hanging over the table.", "quality": "Creates a harsh pool of light surrounded by deep, oppressive shadows. The light should catch every minute detail and texture: the wrinkles on a face, the grain of the wood, the scratches on metal. It should feel raw and unflinching.", "color_temperature": "A stark, neutral to slightly cool white light, avoiding warmth to enhance the grim atmosphere." }, "saturation": "Extremely desaturated, almost monochromatic, to focus the viewer entirely on performance, texture, and the narrative." }, "textures": { "priority": ["aged_human_skin_with_wrinkles_and_pores", "scratched_and_dented_metal", "worn_and_scarred_wood_grain"], "description": "Macro-level texture fidelity is paramount.

The table itself should have character, with stains and scars." }, "performance": { "subject_1": "An older person (60s-70s), with a deeply lined, weary face. Their expression is one of grim resignation and immense emotional burden.", "subject_2": "A younger person (20s-30s), whose performance is the core of the shot. They must transition believably from neutral curiosity to confusion, to dawning horror, and finally to silent, shattering grief.

The focus is locked on the dog tags." }, { "time_start": 3.5, "time_end": 8.0, "description": "As the dog tags stop in front of the younger person, the camera executes a slow, precise rack focus from the tags to their face. Simultaneously, the camera begins a creeping push-in. We watch the younger person's eyes scan the name on the tags, and their expression crumbles in real-time: a slight furrow of the brow, a subtle parting of the lips, a widening of the eyes, and the first glisten of tears welling up. The video cuts to black just as their composure breaks completely." } ] }, "audio_design": { "mastering": "Intimate, focused mono or narrow stereo to create a claustrophobic, 'in-the-room' presence.", "elements": [ { "time": "0.5s - 3.5s", "sound": "The harsh, grating, scraping sound of the metal dog tags sliding across the rough wooden table. This sound is loud and sharp in the otherwise silent room."
