Current added reference image: Use only for the grassy slope, the ancient city and waterways below, the colossal suspended Heavenly Gate, red pillars, teal-green tiered eaves, clouds passing through the structure, the dark moon at the center, sunbeams, and flocks of birds high in the sky. Do not use the woman seen from behind in the reference image; she must not be used as the female lead, and no third-person shot of a woman from behind may be generated. 24-year-old adult fictional East Asian female lead @

. Keep her facial features, hairstyle, clothing, hair accessories, and other accessories consistent. This segment takes place during the day, before the nighttime finale of 《Goodnight, Cloud City》.

Final Video Positioning
A continuous 15-second single take, a realistic, spontaneous-discovery-style MiniDV selfie video.
The female lead holds a silver-gray MiniDV in her right hand throughout, with the wrist strap securely fastened around her right wrist. No camera operator, no third-person shots, no drone, no external wide-angle camera position. The camera is about 45 centimeters away from her. She starts by filming herself as she climbs the grassy slope, naturally stops when she sees the Heavenly Gate, then turns the camera continuously from herself toward the scenery by rotating her body and right wrist, and finally turns it back to a partial selfie composition.
16:9 MiniDV widescreen mode, retaining the bobbing from walking, wind-induced shake, imperfect framing, brief focus misses, exposure breathing, hesitant auto white balance, motion blur, slight interlaced ghosting, fine DV grain, and blown highlights.
The key is to capture the sense of scale of the Heavenly Gate truly existing above the city. It must not become a polished fantasy-architecture promotional video.

Scene Lock
The female lead stands on a gently rising grassy slope on the outskirts of Cloud City.
The slope has real blades of grass of varying lengths, a few patches of exposed soil, and small puddles. When the high-altitude wind blows, the grass bends in succession from the foreground to the distance, rather than the entire meadow swaying in unison.
Below the slope is a vast ancient Chinese city:
Dark gray-green tiled roofs and red-brown buildings are densely arranged;
Several waterways run through the city, their surfaces reflecting the sky;
Small bridges, docks, and streets remain in fixed positions;
The city’s residents appear only as tiny, slow-moving figures in the distance;
The city must not float, fold, or change its layout as the camera turns.
The colossal suspended Heavenly Gate is far away, directly above the city, spanning most of the sky. Maintain the proportions of the teal-green tiered eaves, dark timber structure, giant red pillars, and enormous central gate opening as shown in the reference image.
Clouds slowly pass beneath the gate, between the pillars, and around the eaves, but must not obscure the entire structure. The Heavenly Gate itself is extremely massive and stable, with no bobbing or rotation.
A dark moon hangs in the distance within the central gate opening, its edge traced by a narrow arc of cool white light. It is a distant celestial body, not a portal; it emits no beams of light and does not move quickly. The dark moon remains near the central gate opening, shifting slightly in the frame only as the female lead changes her wrist angle.
Two or three steady, slanting beams of sunlight pass through gaps in the clouds on the right. Several small flocks of varying density fly past the eaves and through the clouds. They do not circle the female lead or suddenly swoop toward the camera.

Strict Timed Shot Breakdown
0–4 seconds: Cresting the grassy slope and seeing the Heavenly Gate
The video begins as the female lead takes the last few steps up the grassy slope.
The MiniDV maintains an arm’s-length selfie perspective. Only about two-thirds of her face is in frame, with a small part of her forehead cropped out; behind her, only windblown grass, sky, and a little cloud cover are initially visible.
Her uphill footsteps create realistic vertical bobbing in the frame. She breathes slightly harder and casually uses her left hand to straighten the fabric brushed by the grass. When she reaches the top of the slope, she suddenly slows down and looks ahead past the camera.
Her eyes widen slightly, but she does not gasp dramatically. After a brief pause, she says:
“I just came over this rise… and there it was.”
After speaking, she keeps looking ahead rather than immediately turning her attention back to the camera.
4–9 seconds: The colossal Heavenly Gate comes fully into view
The female lead first steadies her footing, then slowly turns toward the view by rotating her waist and right wrist.
The camera passes continuously by the side of her face, her hair accessory, the fabric at her shoulder, and the edge of the grassy slope, gradually revealing the city below and the colossal Heavenly Gate in the sky.
Autofocus initially settles on nearby grass swaying in the wind, then takes about half a second to find the distant structure again. As the bright sky enters the frame, there is a pronounced exposure shift: the Heavenly Gate briefly washes out, then the teal-green eaves, red pillars, passing clouds, and city below gradually regain detail.
Off-camera, the female lead lets out a disbelieving laugh and says:
“I didn’t zoom in… it really is that big.”
Her mouth is turned away from the MiniDV microphone, making her voice sound muffled, and wind noise affects the last few words.
9–12 seconds: The dark moon sits right in the gate opening
The female lead keeps the camera facing the scenery, without automatic push-in or digital zoom.
She makes just one small upward adjustment with her right hand so the central gate opening and dark moon sit in the middle of the frame. Her arm is affected by the wind, so the framing drifts slightly throughout; it must not be perfectly steady like a tripod shot.
Clouds slowly pass behind the giant pillars; a flock of birds flies from the upper left toward the right; beams of sunlight illuminate parts of the eaves and cloud edges. The dark moon remains steady, its narrow arc of light clear but not glaring.
Off-camera, she lowers her voice and says:
“Look in the middle… that moon is right inside the gate.”
Autofocus hesitates once between nearby birds and the distant Heavenly Gate, but must not completely lose the main subject.
12–15 seconds: Staying a little longer on the slope
She slowly turns the MiniDV back toward herself, but only halfway.
The final framing is an imperfect partial selfie: half her face is at one side of the frame, while the Heavenly Gate, clouds, and dark moon behind her still occupy most of the image. A strong gust moves a few loose strands of hair; she naturally squints and glances back at the Heavenly Gate once as her breathing gradually slows.
She does not pose facing the camera, only giving a very slight smile:
“I think I’ll just stay here… for a while.”
After speaking, she does not turn off the recording or continue explaining. The camera drifts slightly back toward the distant view; the final second holds on the wind moving through the grassy slope, clouds slowly passing, the distant Heavenly Gate, and sparse bird calls. The recording ends naturally.

Heavenly Gate and Environment Motion Lock
The Heavenly Gate remains suspended above the city; it does not descend, rotate, or move toward the female lead;
Clouds pass slowly between the pillars and eaves only; no explosions or whirlpools form;
The dark moon is a fixed celestial body in the distance; it does not grow larger, open, or emit energy;
Flocks of birds fly in a consistent direction, with slightly varying wingbeat rhythms;
Birds show differences in apparent distance and scale, but do not teleport or duplicate;
The beams of light remain essentially fixed in place, with only slight changes in brightness as thin clouds pass;
The grass rises and falls in sections in response to gusts;
The river below flows slowly, with small changes in its reflections caused by the wind;
The Heavenly Gate must appear clearly much larger than the buildings of the entire city.

Performance and Location Audio
The female lead’s emotions progress as follows:
Slightly tired from climbing → surprised to discover the Heavenly Gate → taking in its real scale → noticing the dark moon at the center → quietly lingering.
The performance relies on natural breathing, a brief pause in her steps, her gaze passing beyond the camera, a slight squint, pauses in her speech, and restrained amusement. No screaming, exaggerated wide-eyed reactions, outstretched arms, or loud presenter-style narration.
The MiniDV’s built-in microphone records:
Continuous wind across the high grassy slope;
Grass blades rubbing against one another;
The female lead’s footsteps on grass and soft earth;
The sound of her sleeves and skirt hem moving in the wind;
Bird calls from flocks at varying distances and heights;
Extremely faint bells and voices coming from the direction of the city;
The female lead speaking naturally at close range, with wind noise.
No background music, no AI voice-over, no clean studio recording.

Negative Constraints
No camera operator, no third-person shot of the female lead from behind, no woman seen from behind from the reference image, no drone, no aerial shot, no external panorama, no camera orbiting the female lead; the MiniDV stays in the female lead’s right hand throughout.
No Heavenly Gate falling, no palace flying toward the female lead, no building deformation, no bending giant pillars, no endlessly extending eaves, no folding city.
No dark moon turning into a black hole, no portal, no explosion, no lightning, no energy beams, no apocalyptic event.
No bird attacks, no birds hitting the camera, no birds suddenly turning into giant beasts, no randomly duplicated birds or birds hovering motionless.
No face changes, no age changes, no clothing redraw, no changes to hair accessories, no skirt hem or sleeves moving against the wind direction.
No automatic push-in, no digital zoom, no stabilizer drift, no commercial aerial cinematography look, no slow motion, no epic score, no cinematic black bars, no subtitles, no logo, no watermark.
