Create a 30-second 16:9 upper-body expression showcase using the provided reference character.
Use Seedance 2.5 prompt logic.
CHARACTER CONSISTENCY:
Preserve the exact identity of the reference character:
large violet eyes, dark tousled hair tied in a low ponytail, soft facial features, blue jacket, white shirt, and semi-realistic stylized 3D illustration rendering.
Keep the original facial structure, hair silhouette, and clothing design.
MOST IMPORTANT RULE — DO NOT CHIBI-FY:
Even though this is an upper-body shot, preserve the original proportions exactly.
Keep the original head size relative to the shoulders and upper torso.
Keep the original neck length.
Keep the original shoulder width.
Keep the original upper torso proportions.
Keep the original arm thickness and hand scale.
Do NOT enlarge the head.
Do NOT make the eyes abnormally oversized beyond the reference style.
Do NOT shrink the shoulders or torso.
Do NOT turn the character into chibi, super-deformed, childlike, doll-like, mascot-like, or miniature proportions.
If there is any conflict between expressive exaggeration and proportion accuracy, always preserve the original proportions.
STYLE:
Maintain the original high-density semi-realistic anime-influenced 3D illustration style.
Detailed skin shading, dimensional hair strands, delicate blush, polished fabric texture, and clean stylized rendering.
Expressions should be very exaggerated and comedic, but the anatomy scale must remain stable.
SCENE:
Pure white seamless background.
Pure white studio floor/background feel.
One character only.
No props.
No text.
No background changes.
CAMERA:
The camera is completely locked off for the entire video.
No zoom.
No pan.
No tilt.
No dolly.
No handheld shake.
No cuts.
No angle changes.
Use a fixed frontal upper-body medium shot.
Frame from about mid-torso / lower chest up to slightly above the head.
Both shoulders must remain clearly visible the whole time.
Both hands may enter and leave the frame naturally during gestures, but the head and shoulders must remain centered and stable.
STAGING:
The character faces the camera the whole time.
She may lean slightly, tilt her head, raise shoulders, bring hands to cheeks, cross arms, gesture outward, and perform energetic upper-body acting.
She remains in the same spot and does not walk away or rotate into profile for long.
Upper-body acting is the focus.
PERFORMANCE GOAL:
Exactly 20 different exaggerated expressions in 30 seconds.
Each expression lasts about 1.5 seconds.
Every expression must be clearly distinct in face shape, eyebrows, eyelids, mouth shape, cheek tension, neck posture, shoulder pose, and hand gesture.
No repeated expression.
No repeated exact silhouette.
ANIMATION DIRECTION:
Use strong key poses, snappy transitions, anticipation, overshoot, follow-through, brief smear frames, motion smears, and occasional tiny hit-stop holds on the clearest reaction pose.
Use squash-and-stretch only in facial acting and soft gesture energy, never in head scale or torso scale.
Hair tips, ponytail ends, and jacket collar can show follow-through.
Comic effects may appear briefly as 2D graphic overlays.

COMIC EFFECTS:
Use temporary 2D overlays only:
sweat drops, anger marks, steam puffs, tear streams, sparkles, hearts, question marks, fear lines, despair lines, and small impact accents.
These effects must disappear before the next expression begins.
IMPORTANT LIMITS:
Do not crop into an extreme close-up.
Do not let the face become too large relative to the shoulders.
Keep the shoulders readable at all times.
Keep the character looking like the same normally proportioned stylized young woman from the reference.
The comedy must come from expression acting, not from deforming the character into a small mascot.

No soundtrack.
No singing.
No narration.
No dialogue.
Use only synchronized cartoon-style sound effects such as pop, boing, whoosh, sparkle, puff, and reaction accents.

Upper-body framing only.
