Facial Expression Prompting

Direct believable character performance and generate complete AI video prompts for text-to-video models. Use for facial acting, microexpressions, emotional transitions, dialogue performance, or vague character ideas such as “an ancient beauty breaks down.” When the brief is vague or asks for a video prompt, expand it into a complete prompt with an adult character, scene, dramatic motivation, emotional progression, facial and body performance, camera and lighting, adaptively chosen duration and exact timeline, audio, consistency locks, and negative constraints. When the user explicitly asks onl

# Character Performance and Video Prompting

Direct the character from the inside out, then construct the world and camera needed to make the performance readable.

Use this causal chain:

`trigger → goal → obstacle → protective strategy → recognition → resistance → leakage → apex → residue → camera and environment response`

Describe visible behavior. Do not diagnose a real person's internal state.

## Route the request

### Complete video mode

Use this by default when the user provides a vague idea, a one-line scene, an emotion plus a character, or asks for an AI video prompt. Examples include “古代美女崩溃”, “a soldier sees his daughter again”, and “她笑着拒绝前任”.

Infer sensible creative details and deliver a copy-ready prompt without forcing the user to answer a questionnaire. State major creative assumptions briefly when they materially shape the result.

Read [full-video-framework.md](references/full-video-framework.md) and include every required video element.

### Performance block mode

Use this when the user explicitly asks only for facial expression, acting detail, microexpressions, or a performance block to insert into an existing prompt. Keep the face primary and include only the supporting breath, body, voice, camera, and lighting cues needed to read the expression.
