The prompt

subject_definitions:
<Subject 1> is the young woman shown in the three-panel character sheet in <Picture 1>, in her mid-twenties, with long wavy mid-brown hair falling well past her shoulders, fair lightly freckled skin, hazel-green eyes, dark natural brows and a slim build, wearing a plain oatmeal-coloured linen short-sleeved shift dress with a round neckline. Only her face, hair, skin and dress are taken from <Picture 1>; the three separate figures side by side, the plain pale studio backdrop, the full-length framing and the barefoot standing poses in that image are not part of the target video, which is a tight vertical closeup filmed in a bedroom.

summary:
[reference generation + keyframe completion] The target video opens on an exact replay of the closing 1.6 seconds of the preceding segment of the same unbroken take and carries straight on from it as <Subject 1>, now wearing the sunglasses, delivers her verdict on the film and pushes the sunglasses up onto her head at the end.

retention_analysis:
<Subject 1> (appears in [Shot 1]): fully_preserved - her face, freckles, hazel-green eyes, long wavy mid-brown hair and oatmeal linen dress are retained exactly; the three-panel character-sheet layout, the plain pale studio backdrop and the full-body standing framing of <Picture 1> are not retained.

detailed_description:
The target video is photorealistic live-action shot vertically for social media, filmed on a phone front camera held at arm's length just above eye level in a bright modern bedroom, in soft even daylight from a window behind the camera, with a shallow depth of field so the pale wall, the corner of a bed and a shelf of plants behind her are softly blurred, and with no on-screen text and no subtitles anywhere.
[Shot 1] The camera is handheld at arm's length and holds the same tight head-and-shoulders closeup for the whole segment with no cut, the top of her head near the top of frame and the bottom of frame at her collarbones, drifting only very slightly the way a hand-held phone does and never zooming, cutting or changing its distance. The segment opens on an exact replay of the closing moments of the preceding take and carries that motion straight through, so the join is invisible. She holds the exact body pose, head angle, gaze direction, hand position and facial expression carried in by the replayed opening, and continues the sentence she is already speaking without any reset or pause. She looks straight down the lens throughout and talks continuously and animatedly at a quick natural conversational pace, her expressions changing constantly -- brows lifting, eyes widening, a wince, a grin, a shrug -- while her jaw and lips open and close distinctly on every syllable, never settling into a fixed open smile or a laugh that would freeze her mouth. Each movement of her hands falls in the gap after a line rather than underneath it, so her mouth is never competing with a gesture. Still wearing the dark tortoiseshell sunglasses carried in from the replayed opening, she carries on, <d>[English] So, final verdict.</d> She holds up one finger beside her face, then drops the hand and continues, <d>[English] Go for the first half. Stay for the music.</d> She tips her head from side to side, weighing it, then says, <d>[English] Seven out of ten. Tell me I am wrong.</d> Around the six-second mark she pushes the sunglasses up off her face and onto the top of her head with one hand, blinks twice as her bare eyes come back to the lens, and finishes with a small shrug and a grin, her mouth still moving as the shot ends.

overall_soundscape:
The close indoor room tone carries straight on from the preceding segment without interruption: her voice loud and close on the phone microphone, a light scrape of the sunglasses arms through her hair as she pushes them up, and very distant muffled traffic outside the window.
