84. CINEMATIC MODE
Use cinematic movement without sacrificing source-image fidelity.

85. DO NOT ADD GENERIC AI EFFECTS
Avoid automatic:

Particles
Holograms
Circuits
Neon glows
Magic transformations

86. ADD EFFECTS ONLY WHEN REQUESTED

97. CREATE TARGETED NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS
Use only relevant protections such as:

No face morphing
No extra fingers
No duplicate objects
No clothing change
No product redesign
No background warping
No random text
No camera jump
No watermark

98. CREATE FIRST-FRAME FIDELITY CHECK
Verify the opening remains faithful to the reference.

- Explicitly distinguish moving elements from stable elements.
- Avoid morphing, duplication, warping, random text and unnecessary redesign.
- Use physically believable motion.
- Preserve the source image's visual style and important details.
