SEEDANCE 2.5 — MAX INTRODUCTION — TMD FORMAT: Vertical 9:16, EXACTLY 4 seconds, one continuous cinematic live-action shot, native synchronized audio. REFERENCES: @Image1 — MAX: Preserve his exact facial features, hairstyle, skin colour and texture, age, body proportions and complete clothing. Max is a 65-year-old Australian man, clean-shaven, NO beard and NO glasses. @Image2 — REAL TRICHOME PHARMACY EXTERIOR: The exact entrance and storefront photographed from the street. Preserve the white overhead Trichome Medicinal Dispensary sign, green logo, lettering, glass entrance door, aluminium window frames, existing green decals on the glass, pavement, surrounding architecture and natural street reflections. @Audio1 — MAX'S ORIGINAL VOICE. Preserve his exact vocal identity, warm slightly gravelly timbre, natural Australian accent, pitch and characteristic manner of speaking. LOCATION: Outside Trichome Medicinal Dispensary, Hardgrave Road, West End, Brisbane, Australia. Sunny daytime. Max stands naturally on the footpath directly in front of the REAL pharmacy entrance shown in @Image2. The storefront remains visible behind him, including the authentic Trichome sign and glass entrance. Position Max so he does not unnecessarily obstruct the main branding. Do NOT redesign the storefront, invent another entrance, replace existing signs or alter the architecture. ACTION AND DIALOGUE — 0:00–0:04: Max stands facing the camera, framed approximately from the waist up. He looks DIRECTLY INTO THE CAMERA with a friendly, slightly amused but mostly deadpan expression. Max speaks naturally, with subtle dry Australian humour: MAX: "Every pharmacy front desk has these five people. Sometimes it's the same person." Use @Audio1 for the ENTIRE line. His delivery is slightly brisk but conversational, clearly articulated and completed within exactly 4 seconds. Precise natural lip synchronization. Realistic mouth, cheek, eyebrow and eye movements. Natural blinking and subtle breathing. Max makes a very small relaxed hand gesture while speaking. His body remains in place. No walking, no turning away, no camera-facing pose changes. CAMERA: Shot on Sony FX3 with Sony FE 50mm f/1.4 GM. 24 fps, 180-degree shutter, natural motion blur. Professional eye-level medium shot, filmed by a real human camera operator. Subtle natural handheld camera sway and realistic operator micro-movements. The pharmacy storefront remains clearly recognizable behind Max. Use moderate natural optical background blur; do NOT blur the building or signage beyond recognition. VISUAL STYLE: Authentic cinematic documentary footage with a warm, restrained 1990s film aesthetic. Fine organic film grain, subtle atmospheric haze, soft highlight roll-off, slightly lifted blacks, natural contrast and realistic daylight. CRITICAL PHOTOGRAPHIC REALISM: The scene must look like genuinely recorded live-action footage, NOT AI-generated video. Preserve Max's exact facial identity, natural skin pores, wrinkles, subtle imperfections, individual hair strands, realistic skin sheen and natural fabric textures. Physically accurate daylight, contact shadows, glass transparency, street reflections and exposure. Subtle lens imperfections and realistic sensor noise. No plastic skin, beauty retouching, artificial oversharpening, CGI gloss, unnatural facial animation or excessively smooth camera movement. BACKGROUND: The pharmacy exterior must faithfully match @Image2 in every architectural detail. All official Trichome branding already visible in @Image2 must remain correctly positioned, with accurate lettering, proportions and colours. Realistic glass reflections and natural Brisbane street ambience. No additional people in the foreground. AUDIO: Use ONLY @Audio1 for Max's voice. Natural, slightly gravelly Australian accent, warm tone and dry comedic delivery. Only the exact quoted dialogue is spoken. Subtle outdoor ambience, distant traffic and natural street sounds. NO background music. STRICT RULES: Only one visible speaking character: Max. No extra dialogue. No subtitles or text overlays. No invented signage or branding. Do not change the pharmacy exterior. Do not alter Max's face, hairstyle, age, clothing or body proportions. No beard or glasses. No camera cuts. No character teleportation or unnatural motion. Exact duration: 4 seconds.
