The process
Build and approve the still-image carousel first. The motion stage depends on those approved frames to preserve product styling, people, court geometry, lighting, and composition.
Riverflow workflow
Image first, then motion
Follow the reference-image roles written into each prompt. A brand-bible reference controls VOLEA's palette and marks; face and composition references control only the parts explicitly named.

Original prompt
REFERENCE USE: Reference image 1 is a COMPOSITION reference only - copy its framing, the seated pose, the way the open newspaper is held to cover the face, the bench, the rackets leaning at each end and the scattered balls. Do NOT copy its green court, its black outfit or any of its text. Reference image 2 is a COLOUR reference only - take from it the saturated magenta-purple of the court surface. Ignore everything else in reference image 2. USE CASE: fashion campaign advertising image, cover frame of a sportswear brand carousel. STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a bold Scandinavian print ad - deadpan, graphic, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: outdoor padel court on a bright cloudless day, high midday sun, hard short shadows, vivid clarity. The court surface is a saturated magenta-purple (#A62A88) acrylic with pure white boundary lines. Behind the bench, the court's tempered-glass back wall and graphite metal frame with black side mesh; above and beyond it a strip of saturated blue sky (#1E7FD4). Scattered lime-green (#C8E43C) padel balls resting on the purple surface, near and far. SUBJECT: a 24-year-old Mediterranean woman with warm olive skin, athletic build, dark brown hair in a low sleek polished bun - only the top of her head and the sides of her hair are visible above the newspaper. She sits centred on a low pale-grey painted wooden bench, knees together and angled to the left, forearms raised, holding a large open broadsheet newspaper in both hands so it completely covers her face and chest. Her hands grip the outer edges of the paper; short natural nails, one thin gold ring. Relaxed, still, deadpan posture. WARDROBE: heather-grey ribbed athletic crop top, small mustard-yellow wordmark "VOLEA" embroidered at centre chest. White pleated padel skirt with a heather-grey woven waistband tape printed with the repeated wordmark "VOLEA". Mustard-yellow (#D9A93F) ribbed crew socks pulled high, small "volea" knitted at the ankle. Clean white leather court sneakers with a mustard tongue tab. PROPS: two solid perforated padel rackets (padel palas - teardrop shape, thick solid face with a grid of round holes, NOT strung tennis racquets), matte white with mustard graphics and the wordmark "VOLEA" on the face, one leaning against each end of the bench. DETAILS - THE NEWSPAPER (the hero of the frame, must be perfectly legible and beautifully typeset): a real broadsheet on warm off-white newsprint, visible fold down the centre, slight paper curl and grain. RIGHT-HAND PAGE (facing the camera, largest area): a huge black headline in a tightly-tracked condensed grotesque, set flush left across three lines reading "SAME" / "PRODUCT." / "ANY SCENARIO." - occupying most of the page. Below it a hairline horizontal rule, and under the rule, centred, in medium weight black lowercase, "riverflow.ai". LEFT-HAND PAGE: a thin double rule across the top with the small centred masthead "VOLEA" in wide-tracked capitals; below it a printed graphic block - a flat magenta-purple rectangle containing an evenly spaced grid of twelve lime-green padel balls in the upper half and, beneath them, a large flat black silhouette of a perforated padel racket. Under the graphic block, one small line of black capitals: "MADE WITH RIVERFLOW". No other text anywhere on the paper - no body copy, no columns of fake text. TEXT (EXACT): "SAME" / "PRODUCT." / "ANY SCENARIO." / "riverflow.ai" / "VOLEA" / "MADE WITH RIVERFLOW" TYPOGRAPHY: headline in a heavy condensed grotesque, very tight tracking, pure black. "riverflow.ai" in a clean medium-weight lowercase grotesque. "VOLEA" masthead and garment labelling in a geometric grotesque, all caps, wide letter-spacing. "MADE WITH RIVERFLOW" small caps, light weight. CAMERA: medium-format digital, 85mm equivalent at f/2.0, eye level, straight-on, subject centred. The newspaper type and the model are tack-sharp with visible paper and fabric fibre; the far court, glass wall and background balls fall into a soft creamy bokeh. Lens compression, rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour, no haze. PALETTE: #A62A88 / #C8E43C / #1E7FD4 / #FFFFFF / #9A9A9A / #D9A93F IMPERFECTIONS: fine newsprint grain and a faint ink dot pattern in the flat colour block, one soft crease across the paper, a few real scuff marks on the court surface, natural skin texture with visible pores and fine arm hair, tiny fabric pilling on the ribbed socks, a light dusting of court grit on the white sneakers. CONSTRAINTS: no watermarks, no handles, no @ symbols, no logos other than "VOLEA" and "riverflow.ai", no columns of unreadable filler text, no misspelled or garbled letters, no strung tennis racquets, no green or blue court surface, no black clothing, no second person, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare, no flat all-in-focus rendering. OUTPUT: Output in exactly 3456px x 4320px (4:5 portrait vertical format). Negative prompt: plastic skin, AI-smoothed skin, over-rendered, doll-like features, waxy skin, airbrushed, beauty filter, deformed hands, extra fingers, fused fingers, malformed nails, garbled text, misspelled words, illegible headline, fake newspaper body copy, duplicate headline, watermark, social handle, tennis racquet with strings, green court, blue court, clay court, black outfit, oversaturated HDR, lens flare, stock photo feel, catalog flat lighting, duplicate subject, extra bench

Original prompt
REFERENCE USE: Reference image 1 is the BRAND BIBLE - match its exact magenta-purple court surface colour, its lime-green padel ball colour, its garment palette (white / heather grey / mustard), the exact look of the "VOLEA" wordmark and of the V logomark (a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars to its right), and its hard-sun, high-contrast, high-clarity photographic treatment. Reference image 2 is the previous version of THIS SAME frame - keep its giant heather-grey knitted cardigan hung across the court, its garments and its colour grade, but change the camera as described below. Reference image 3 is the FACE of ALMA. Reference image 4 is the FACE of NORA. USE CASE: fashion campaign advertising image, frame 04 of a padel sportswear brand carousel. STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a surreal product monument - deadpan, spacious, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: a full outdoor padel court seen along its length, in hard midday sun. Saturated magenta-purple (#A62A88) acrylic surface with pure white boundary lines and visible service boxes. This is a real padel cage: tall tempered-glass back walls in graphite frames at both ends, black galvanised mesh panels running down both long sides, and slim graphite uprights at the corners. Beyond and above the cage, a huge field of vivid saturated blue sky (#1E7FD4), cloudless, and a low band of distant context - a few dark cypress trees and a pale low clubhouse wall visible through the side mesh. Hard short shadows raking across the purple surface. HERO SUBJECT (the product, dead centre): the net has been replaced by a GIANT heather-grey knitted VOLEA cardigan spanning the entire width of the court from side wall to side wall, its sleeves running out horizontally and lashed directly to the lateral cage structure at each side - there are NO free-standing net posts anywhere in frame. The cardigan's ribbed V-neck placket and body hang down the centre exactly where a net would be, two patch pockets at the lower front, a vertical row of soft mustard-yellow buttons down the placket, a small woven "VOLEA" label at the back of the collar, chunky visible knit texture, ribbed cuffs and hem, a natural sag in the middle from its own weight, casting a long hard shadow across the purple court. CAMERA POSITION (the key change): the camera is placed FAR BACK, well behind the near player, and very LOW - barely above the court surface - tilted slightly upward in a low-angle worm's-eye view. The purple court sweeps away from the lens in the foreground, the cardigan looms in the middle distance, and the far end of the cage and the enormous sky occupy the top half of the frame. Strong sense of space, air and depth; three clear layers of foreground, midground and background. SUBJECTS: NORA - 25, fair freckled skin, mid-brown hair in one long braid, slim athletic build - stands in the lower right of frame seen from behind, small in the composition because of the distance, in a low ready stance with a matte-white perforated padel racket raised. Far beyond the cardigan, tiny in the frame and facing the camera, ALMA - 24, warm olive skin, dark brown hair in a low sleek polished bun, small mole above the left corner of her mouth - also in a ready stance. One lime-green padel ball frozen in mid-air high above the cardigan against the blue sky. WARDROBE: NORA in a white ribbed knit polo and a white pleated padel skirt with a heather-grey waistband tape reading "VOLEA", mustard-yellow (#D9A93F) ribbed crew socks pulled high, clean white leather court sneakers with a mustard tongue tab. ALMA in a heather-grey ribbed knit polo with a small mustard "VOLEA" at the chest, the same white pleated skirt, mustard socks and white sneakers. BRAND MARKS: the "VOLEA" wordmark appears ONLY as small labelling on the garments and rackets. The V logomark - a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars to its right - appears small and mustard on the sneaker tongues and racket faces. There is NO floating wordmark or any other text anywhere in the sky or over the image. CAMERA: full-frame digital, 35mm equivalent at f/2.8, held low near the ground, tilted slightly up. Focus is on the giant cardigan: its knit stitches and mustard buttons are sharp. The near foreground court surface is softly out of focus, and the far cage and sky are clean. Natural wide-angle spatial depth, rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour, no haze. PALETTE: #A62A88 / #1E7FD4 / #9A9A9A / #C8E43C / #FFFFFF / #D9A93F IMPERFECTIONS: loose knit fibres along the top edge of the cardigan, one sleeve slightly slacker than the other, faint scuff marks and dust on the purple acrylic, natural skin texture with real freckles, a few strands loose from the braid, light court grit on the white sneakers. CONSTRAINTS: no floating wordmark, no text of any kind in the sky, no net posts, no real tennis net, no watermarks, no handles, no logos other than the small VOLEA garment labelling and V logomark, no green or blue court surface, no clay, no black clothing, no third person, no strung tennis racquets, no sea or ocean, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare. OUTPUT: Output in exactly 3456px x 4320px (4:5 portrait vertical format). Negative prompt: floating logo text, sky typography, net posts, tennis net, plastic skin, AI-smoothed skin, over-rendered, waxy skin, airbrushed, deformed hands, extra fingers, fused fingers, garbled text, misspelled wordmark, watermark, social handle, strung tennis racquet, green court, blue court, clay court, black outfit, ocean horizon, third player, oversaturated HDR, lens flare, stock photo feel, catalog flat lighting, eye-level camera, high angle, cropped court

Original prompt
REFERENCE USE: Reference image 1 is the BRAND BIBLE - match its exact lime-green padel ball colour, its garment palette (white / heather grey / mustard), the exact look of the "VOLEA" wordmark and of the V logomark (a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars to its right), and its hard-sun, high-contrast, high-clarity photographic treatment. Reference image 2 is a COMPOSITION reference only - copy the trompe-l'oeil idea of an extreme macro of knitted polo fabric that fills the whole frame and is read as a sports court, with a tiny real player playing on top of it, a long hard cast shadow, and a large embroidered brand emblem sitting on the fabric like a logo patch. Do NOT copy its green colour, its crocodile emblem, its male subject or its tennis racquet. USE CASE: fashion campaign advertising image, frame 05 of a padel sportswear brand carousel - a scale-illusion product macro. STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial trompe-l'oeil, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a witty Lacoste-style scale illusion - graphic, deadpan, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: an extreme macro photograph of soft-mustard (#D9A93F) cotton pique polo fabric that completely fills the frame and is read as the surface of a padel court. Every waffle cell of the pique knit is clearly visible. In the top-left corner, out of focus, the folded ribbed collar and one placket button of the polo intrude into frame, confirming that this is a real garment. Woven into the pique in slightly raised pure-white yarn are the crisp lines of a padel court layout - a service line and a centre line - running across the fabric exactly as court markings would. Hard raking sunlight from the upper left, so the knit texture has real relief and everything casts a sharp shadow. HERO EMBLEM: in the lower right of the frame, a large chunky embroidered VOLEA patch stitched onto the fabric - the V logomark, a solid letter "V" with two short horizontal bars set to its right, embroidered in dense heather-grey and pure-white thread with a raised satin-stitch edge, with the wordmark "VOLEA" embroidered small in white capitals beneath it. Visible individual thread passes and a slight puckering of the fabric around the embroidery. SUBJECT: standing on the fabric as if it were the court, a TINY real woman - the size of the embroidered patch - caught mid-smash, body fully extended, left arm raised and pointing up, right arm swinging a matte-white perforated padel racket overhead. Warm olive skin, dark brown hair in a low sleek polished bun. She wears a heather-grey ribbed athletic crop top with a small mustard "VOLEA" at the chest, a white pleated padel skirt, mustard-yellow ribbed crew socks and white leather court sneakers. Her long hard shadow stretches down and to the right across the pique. Just above her raised hand, a tiny lime-green padel ball frozen in the air, its own small shadow on the fabric below. TEXT (EXACT): "VOLEA" CAMERA: 100mm macro at f/5.6, aimed almost straight down at the fabric but tilted a few degrees, so the plane of the knit runs edge to edge. The pique cells, the embroidery threads and the tiny figure are all tack-sharp; the intruding collar in the top-left corner falls soft. Rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour. PALETTE: #D9A93F / #FFFFFF / #9A9A9A / #C8E43C IMPERFECTIONS: a few stray fibres lifting from the pique, one slightly loose embroidery thread, a faint natural crease running through the fabric, tiny lint specks. CONSTRAINTS: no watermarks, no handles, no text other than "VOLEA", no logos other than the VOLEA wordmark and the V logomark, no crocodile or animal emblem, no strung tennis racquet, no male subject, no green fabric, no real court surface, no sky, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare. OUTPUT: Output in exactly 3456px x 4320px (4:5 portrait vertical format). Negative prompt: crocodile emblem, animal logo, green fabric, male model, strung tennis racquet, garbled text, misspelled wordmark, watermark, social handle, plastic skin, AI-smoothed skin, over-rendered, deformed hands, extra fingers, floating figure, missing shadow, flat lighting, oversaturated HDR, lens flare, stock photo feel, real court asphalt

REFERENCE USE: Reference image 1 is the BRAND BIBLE - match its exact magenta-purple court surface colour, its lime-green padel ball colour, its garment palette (white / heather grey / mustard), the exact look of the "VOLEA" wordmark and of the V logomark (a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars to its right), and its hard-sun, high-contrast, high-clarity photographic treatment. Reference image 2 is the FACE of the model ALMA - reproduce her face exactly. Reference image 3 is a COMPOSITION reference only - copy the idea of a giant ball wearing a pleated skirt around its middle on the left of frame, with a single player standing to the right looking at it. Do NOT copy its sea horizon, its grey-green court, its grey skirt, its model or its wooden tennis racquet. USE CASE: fashion campaign advertising image, frame 06 of a padel sportswear brand carousel. STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a surreal product monument - deadpan, witty, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: outdoor padel court in hard midday sun. Saturated magenta-purple (#A62A88) acrylic surface with pure white boundary lines and a visible service line running across the lower third. Behind, the court's tempered-glass back wall in a graphite frame with black mesh panels to the sides, and above it a wide field of vivid saturated blue sky (#1E7FD4), cloudless. Hard short shadows. HERO SUBJECT (left two-thirds of frame): a GIANT lime-green (#C8E43C) padel ball, about two metres across, resting on the purple court - dense felt with visible fibre nap and two thick off-white curved seams. Around its middle, worn exactly like a skirt on a waist, a real WHITE pleated VOLEA padel skirt scaled up to fit it: crisp knife pleats fanning out all around, a heather-grey woven waistband tape sitting high on the ball printed with the repeated wordmark "VOLEA", and the wordmark "VOLEA" also printed once, larger, in white on the lower right of the pleats. The ball casts a hard elliptical shadow on the purple surface. SUBJECT (right of frame): ALMA - 24, warm olive skin, athletic build, dark brown hair in a low sleek polished bun, thick straight dark eyebrows, dark brown eyes, a small mole just above the left corner of her mouth - standing full length, weight on one hip, dark narrow sunglasses, head turned to look down at the dressed ball with a completely deadpan expression. In her right hand, hanging loose at her side, a matte-white solid perforated padel racket with mustard VOLEA graphics. WARDROBE: heather-grey ribbed knit polo with a small mustard "VOLEA" at the chest, white pleated padel skirt with the grey "VOLEA" waistband tape, mustard-yellow (#D9A93F) ribbed crew socks pulled high, clean white leather court sneakers with a mustard tongue tab, a white terry wristband on her left wrist. TEXT (EXACT): "VOLEA" BRAND MARKS: the V logomark - a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars set to its right - small and mustard on the sneaker tongues and on the racket face. No floating text anywhere in the sky. CAMERA: full-frame digital, 50mm equivalent at f/2.8, eye level, a step back so both the ball and the full standing figure fit comfortably with air above. Focus is on the dressed ball: the pleats, the waistband tape and the felt nap are tack-sharp. ALMA is very slightly softer, and the glass wall and sky behind fall into a smooth gradient. Rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour, no haze. PALETTE: #A62A88 / #C8E43C / #1E7FD4 / #FFFFFF / #9A9A9A / #D9A93F IMPERFECTIONS: a couple of pleats sitting slightly out of line, loose felt fibres catching the sun on the ball's rim, faint scuff marks on the purple acrylic, natural skin texture with visible pores, a few strands loose from the bun, light court grit on the white sneakers, two normal-size lime padel balls lying on the court behind for scale. CONSTRAINTS: no watermarks, no handles, no text other than "VOLEA", no logos other than the VOLEA wordmark and the V logomark, no floating sky text, no green or blue court surface, no clay, no black clothing, no second person, no strung tennis racquet, no sea or ocean, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare, no flat all-in-focus rendering.

Reference image 2 is the FACE of the model NORA - reproduce her face exactly. Reference image 3 is a COMPOSITION reference only - copy the idea of a single player in profile on the left of frame reaching up to fasten a colossal cardigan that stands upright filling the right two thirds, with tennis balls serving as its buttons. Do NOT copy its sea horizon, its grey-green court, its model, its bun hairstyle or its typeface. USE CASE: fashion campaign advertising image, frame 08 of a padel sportswear brand carousel. STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a surreal product monument - deadpan, witty, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: outdoor padel court in hard midday sun. Saturated magenta-purple (#A62A88) acrylic surface with pure white boundary lines running across the lower third. Behind, the court's tempered-glass back wall in a graphite frame with black mesh panels, and above it a wide field of vivid saturated blue sky (#1E7FD4), cloudless. Six or seven normal-size lime-green padel balls lie scattered on the purple court, each with a small hard shadow. HERO SUBJECT (right two thirds of frame): a COLOSSAL heather-grey knitted VOLEA cardigan, roughly four metres tall, standing upright and unsupported on the purple court as if worn by an invisible giant - chunky visible knit, a deep ribbed V-neck, a wide ribbed placket running down the centre front, two big patch pockets at the lower front, ribbed cuffs and hem. Down the placket, instead of buttons, a vertical row of six real lime-green (#C8E43C) padel balls pushed through the buttonholes. A small woven "VOLEA" label is stitched below the neckline, and the wordmark "VOLEA" is embroidered small in black on the upper right chest. The cardigan casts a huge hard shadow across the court to the right. SUBJECT (left of frame): NORA - 25, fair freckled skin across nose and cheekbones, mid-brown hair in one long braid, hazel-green eyes, slim athletic build - standing in full profile facing right, leaning slightly forward, both hands raised in front of her chest, fingertips pressing the topmost lime ball through its buttonhole. Head tilted down, eyes on her hands, completely deadpan and absorbed. WARDROBE: white ribbed knit polo with a mustard tipped collar and a small mustard "VOLEA" at the chest, white pleated padel skirt with a heather-grey woven waistband tape printed with the repeated wordmark "VOLEA", mustard-yellow (#D9A93F) ribbed crew socks pulled high with a small "volea" at the ankle, clean white leather court sneakers with a mustard tongue tab. TEXT (EXACT): "VOLEA" BRAND MARKS: the V logomark - a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars set to its right - small and mustard on the sneaker tongues. No floating text anywhere in the sky. CAMERA: medium-format digital, 85mm equivalent at f/2.5, eye level, straight on, so the giant cardigan reads flat and monumental. Focus is on the cardigan's placket and the lime-ball buttons: the knit stitches, the buttonhole ribbing and the felt nap of the balls are tack-sharp. NORA is a hair softer, and the glass wall and sky behind fall into a smooth creamy gradient. Lens compression, rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour, no haze. PALETTE: #A62A88 / #9A9A9A / #C8E43C / #1E7FD4 / #FFFFFF / #D9A93F IMPERFECTIONS: loose knit fibres lifting along the shoulders of the cardigan, one buttonhole stretched wider than the others by its ball, a soft sag in one sleeve, faint scuff marks on the purple acrylic, natural skin texture with visible pores and real freckles, a few strands loose from the braid, light court grit on the white sneakers. CONSTRAINTS: no watermarks, no handles, no text other than "VOLEA", no logos other than the VOLEA wordmark and the V logomark, no floating sky text, no green or blue court surface, no clay, no black clothing, no second person, no strung tennis racquet, no sea or ocean, no mannequin or visible support, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare, no flat all-in-focus rendering.

REFERENCE USE: Reference image 1 is the BRAND BIBLE - match its exact magenta-purple colour, its lime-green padel ball colour, its garment palette (white / heather grey / mustard), the exact look of the "VOLEA" wordmark and of the V logomark (a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars to its right), and its hard-sun, high-contrast, high-clarity photographic treatment. Reference image 2 is the FACE of the model ALMA - reproduce her face exactly. Reference image 3 is a COMPOSITION reference only - copy its flat frontal graphic framing against a large flat coloured wall with white horizontal stripes, the deep blue sky along the top, the sports net hanging vertically down the right edge, the single figure standing centred in an oversized coat with a headscarf and sunglasses, and the racket and ball frozen floating in mid-air beside her head. Do NOT copy its salmon-red colour, its truck, its cream coat, its model or its strung tennis racquet. USE CASE: fashion campaign advertising image, frame 09 of a padel sportswear brand carousel - the fashion-editorial moment of the series. STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a flat graphic Jacquemus poster - deadpan, still, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: the long exterior wall of a padel club, filling almost the whole frame as a flat plane, painted in saturated magenta-purple (#A62A88) with two crisp pure-white horizontal stripes - one high, one low - running edge to edge. Along the very top of the frame, a band of vivid saturated deep blue sky (#1E7FD4), cloudless. The ground is dark grey asphalt with one white court line. Hard high sun from the upper left throws a sharp diagonal shadow of the figure onto the wall behind her. PROP: down the right edge of the frame, a real padel net hangs vertically from top to bottom - black knotted mesh with a pure-white top band - its bottom pooling slightly on the asphalt. SUBJECT: ALMA - 24, warm olive skin, dark brown hair, thick straight dark eyebrows, straight nose, a small mole just above the left corner of her mouth - standing centred, feet together, arms hanging loose and slightly away from her body, head turned three-quarters to the right and tipped slightly back, chin up, completely deadpan. Her hair is fully covered by a smooth white silk headscarf knotted under the chin with the tail flowing back to the right; dark narrow sunglasses. WARDROBE: a dramatically oversized soft-mustard (#D9A93F) structured coat with enormous exaggerated shoulders and a huge folded shawl collar, worn buttoned, over a matching long straight mustard skirt to mid-calf. The wordmark "VOLEA" is embroidered small in white on the coat's left chest. Plain white flat court shoes. FLOATING ELEMENTS: a matte-white solid perforated padel racket (padel pala - teardrop shape, thick face with a grid of round holes, mustard VOLEA graphics) frozen in mid-air to the left of her head, tilted at a diagonal, and one lime-green (#C8E43C) padel ball frozen in the air just above her right shoulder. Both cast their own small sharp shadows on the purple wall. TEXT (EXACT): "VOLEA" BRAND MARKS: the V logomark - a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars set to its right - appears once, small and white, on the racket face. No floating text, no signage on the wall. CAMERA: full-frame digital, 50mm equivalent at f/4, dead-on frontal and level so the wall reads as a perfectly flat graphic plane. ALMA and the floating props are tack-sharp; the hanging net at the right edge and the far end of the wall fall gently soft. Rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour, no haze. PALETTE: #A62A88 / #D9A93F / #1E7FD4 / #FFFFFF / #C8E43C IMPERFECTIONS: faint roller texture and a few chips in the purple wall paint, the white stripes slightly uneven at their edges, a real crease at the coat's elbow, fine silk wrinkles in the headscarf, grit and a hairline crack in the asphalt. CONSTRAINTS: no watermarks, no handles, no text other than "VOLEA", no logos other than the VOLEA wordmark and the V logomark, no truck or vehicle, no salmon or red wall, no strung tennis racquet, no black clothing, no second person, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare, no tilted camera. OUTPUT: Output in exactly 3456px x 4320px (4:5 portrait vertical format). Negative prompt: truck, van, vehicle, salmon wall, red wall, strung tennis racquet, cream coat, plastic skin, AI-smoothed skin, over-rendered, doll-like features, waxy skin, airbrushed, deformed hands, extra fingers, fused fingers, garbled text, misspelled wordmark, watermark, social handle, black outfit, second person, tilted camera, oversaturated HDR, lens flare, stock photo feel, busy background

STYLE: high-end sports-fashion editorial, cross between a Miu Miu tennis campaign and a warm sunlit portrait - playful, alive, sun-drenched, extremely crisp and high-contrast. SCENE: outdoor padel court in hard high-noon sun. Behind her, thrown far out of focus, the saturated magenta-purple (#A62A88) court surface with a soft white line and, higher up, the graphite frame of the glass wall and a slice of vivid blue sky - all reduced to smooth creamy colour blocks. Direct hard sunlight from slightly above and in front, so her face is brightly lit with crisp small shadows under the nose and jaw. SUBJECT: NORA - 25, fair skin with real freckles scattered across her nose and cheekbones, hazel-green eyes, mid-brown hair pulled back tight - filling the frame from mid-chest up. Both arms raised, elbows out, one hand at each side of her face, holding a lime-green (#C8E43C) padel ball pressed over each eye like goggles. Head tilted very slightly back, mouth wide open in a big genuine laughing smile showing her teeth, cheeks lifted, nose crinkled. Short natural bare nails, no rings, no bracelets. WARDROBE: a plush pure-white terry sweatband across her forehead with the V logomark - a solid "V" with two short horizontal bars set to its right - embroidered small in mustard at its centre. A crisp white pique polo with a spread collar, one collar point catching the light, and the wordmark "VOLEA" embroidered small in mustard on the left chest just in frame at the bottom. TEXT (EXACT): "VOLEA" CAMERA: medium-format digital, 85mm equivalent at f/2.0, eye level, very close. Her eyes-line - the two balls, her hands and her smile - is tack-sharp with visible skin pores, fine facial down and individual felt fibres on the balls; the background melts into a smooth creamy bokeh with round highlights. Lens compression, rich micro-contrast, deep saturated colour, warm true skin tones, no haze. PALETTE: #C8E43C / #FFFFFF / #A62A88 / #D9A93F / #1E7FD4 IMPERFECTIONS: real freckles and visible pores, a faint sheen of sweat on her forehead and upper lip, a few flyaway hairs lit by the sun, tiny fine lines at the corners of her mouth from laughing, one ball slightly scuffed with loose felt fibres, the terry sweatband a little rumpled. CONSTRAINTS: no watermarks, no handles, no text other than "VOLEA", no logos other than the VOLEA wordmark and the V logomark, no Nike or other brand marks, no rings, no bracelets, no jewellery, no grey studio background, no washed-out or faded grade, no AI-smoothed skin, no HDR, no lens flare. OUTPUT: Output in exactly 3456px x 4320px (4:5 portrait vertical format). Negative prompt: Nike logo, swoosh, other brand marks, rings, bracelets, jewellery, grey seamless background, washed out grade, faded film, plastic skin, AI-smoothed skin, over-rendered, doll-like features, waxy skin, airbrushed, beauty filter, no freckles, deformed hands, extra fingers, fused fingers, malformed nails, garbled text, misspelled wordmark, watermark, social handle, yellow tennis ball with black logo print, closed mouth, oversaturated HDR, lens flare, stock photo feel, flat lighting, everything in focus

Example prompt
Style/Camera: Photorealistic high-end fashion sports campaign, preserving the exact composition, subjects, wardrobe, props, textures, colors, lighting, shadows and geometry of @Image1. Start from the exact uploaded frame. Low-angle camera movement only: the camera smoothly rotates 90 degrees toward screen-right while simultaneously tilting upward, traveling around the right side and ending behind the foreground female model in a rear three-quarter position. The camera movement is slow, precise, continuous and mechanically controlled, with no handheld shake, no zoom, no dolly, no change of focal length. The tilt-up progressively reveals more of the blue sky and the upper body of the model while maintaining the same visual scale and premium photographic perspective. The camera is the only moving element besides the wind-affected skirts. Audio: Very subtle natural outdoor wind ambience only. Soft continuous wind, with a gentle fabric rustle synchronized exactly to the movement of the skirts. No voices, no footsteps, no racket impact, no ball impact, no music, no crowd, no environmental movement sounds. Lighting: Preserve the exact hard midday sunlight, deep cobalt-blue sky, crisp shadows, color palette, exposure and contrast of @Image1 throughout the entire shot. Lighting is completely static. No changing sunlight, no cloud movement, no exposure shift, no flicker, no lens flare. Location: The exact outdoor padel court from @Image1. Preserve the magenta court surface, black metal fencing, glass panels, oversized gray knitted cardigan used as the net, cardigan texture, buttons, pockets, sleeves and all visible details. Preserve the yellow ball suspended in the sky, the background player, both rackets, shoes, socks, hair, braid, wardrobe and every object exactly in its original position. The entire environment is physically frozen. Main Character/Characters: @Image1 contains the complete visual reference and must be preserved exactly. The foreground female model remains perfectly frozen in her original ready-to-play stance: feet planted, legs completely still, torso completely still, arms and hands completely still, racket completely still, head completely still, braid completely still, shirt completely still, socks and shoes completely still. Her identity, body proportions, wardrobe, pose and silhouette do not change. The background female player is also completely frozen in exactly the original pose. Her body, face, hair, racket, clothing and shoes do not move. The yellow ball is completely frozen in mid-air. The oversized knitted cardigan net is completely frozen: sleeves, knit fibers, buttons, pockets and fabric do not move. All court fencing, glass, plants, trees, shadows and every other environmental element remain absolutely motionless. Scene Flow: 00.00-01.50: Begin exactly on the uploaded frame. Everything is frozen. The camera starts the controlled 90-degree rotation toward screen-right from the original low-angle position while beginning a very subtle upward tilt. Only the camera moves; no physical subject movement occurs. 01.50-03.00: Continue the same smooth rotation toward screen-right and gradual tilt upward. The perspective shifts around the right side of the foreground model. All people, rackets, ball, cardigan-net, court and background remain completely frozen. 03.00-04.50: Continue the rotation and tilt-up with constant, elegant camera speed. The camera passes toward the model's right-rear side, revealing a rear three-quarter view. The model's body remains perfectly locked in place. Only her skirts respond to the wind. 04.50-06.00: Complete the 90-degree camera rotation toward screen-right and finish the upward tilt behind the foreground model. End on a clean rear three-quarter composition. The camera movement eases to a precise stop. The white pleated skirt and any visible loose skirt fabric continue a very subtle wind-driven flutter, while absolutely everything else remains frozen. Constraints: ABSOLUTE FREEZE EXCEPT FOR THE CAMERA AND THE SKIRTS. The camera movement is the only geometric scene movement. The only physical movement is a subtle, believable wind acting on the foreground model's skirt and, only if naturally visible, the background model's skirt. No other fabric moves. No body movement. No facial movement. No blinking. No breathing motion. No hair movement. No braid movement. No hand movement. No finger movement. No racket movement. No ball movement. No cardigan movement. No net movement. No fence movement. No vegetation movement. No shadow movement. No lighting change. The wind must affect only the skirts, with small irregular pleat-by-pleat flutter and gentle lateral displacement, never dramatic billowing. The skirt movement must obey real fabric weight, inertia and gravity. Do not animate the ball. Do not animate the players. Do not animate the cardigan. Do not add secondary motion. Preserve the exact appearance and spatial position of every element from @Image1. No object morphing, no geometry changes, no wardrobe changes, no extra people, no new objects, no camera shake, no zoom, no focus breathing, no exposure changes, no artificial motion blur. The final frame must remain a faithful continuation of @Image1, with the only visible activity being the controlled camera rotation/tilt and subtle wind moving the skirts.

Example prompt
Style/Camera: Photorealistic high-end fashion sports campaign, preserving the exact composition, identity, wardrobe, colors, textures, lighting, shadows and geometry of @Image1. Start from the exact uploaded frame. Very slow-motion cinematic camera movement: smoothly rotate the camera toward screen-left while simultaneously performing a slow upward tilt. The movement is continuous, elegant and mechanically precise, with no handheld shake, no zoom, no dolly and no change of focal length. The camera movement should feel like a slow-motion fashion film shot, while the entire physical scene remains frozen. Audio: Almost complete silence with only a very subtle outdoor breeze and delicate fabric rustling caused by the giant skirt around the tennis ball. No voices, no footsteps, no racket sounds, no ball sounds, no music, no crowd, no environmental movement sounds. Lighting: Preserve the exact hard midday sunlight, blue sky, exposure, contrast, colors and shadows of @Image1. Lighting remains completely static throughout the shot. No changing sunlight, no cloud movement, no exposure shifts, no flicker. Location: The exact padel court shown in @Image1. Preserve the magenta court, white lines, black fencing, blue sky, giant tennis ball, giant white pleated skirt, female model, racket, yellow balls and every visible object exactly as they appear in the reference. Main Character/Characters: @Image1 is the complete visual reference and must be preserved exactly. The female model is completely frozen in her original pose. Her face, gaze, sunglasses, hair, bun, arms, hands, racket, torso, legs, socks and shoes remain absolutely motionless. The giant tennis ball remains completely frozen in exactly the same position. All small tennis balls remain completely frozen. The court, fencing, shadows, background and every environmental element remain completely frozen. Scene Flow: 00.00-01.00: Begin exactly on the uploaded frame. Everything is completely frozen. Start an extremely slow, smooth camera rotation toward screen-left combined with a gradual upward tilt. Only the camera moves. The giant skirt begins a barely perceptible wind-driven flutter. 01.00-02.00: Continue the same slow leftward camera rotation and upward tilt. The giant tennis ball, model, racket, court and environment remain perfectly frozen. Only the large white pleated skirt moves subtly in the wind. 02.00-03.00: Continue the slow-motion camera movement. The tilt-up progressively reveals more of the blue sky while the camera rotates toward screen-left. The giant skirt develops gentle, realistic pleat movement caused exclusively by the breeze. 03.00-04.00: Maintain the same controlled camera trajectory and speed. The model and tennis ball remain statuesque. The giant skirt softly ripples and lifts by small amounts, with realistic fabric weight, inertia and gravity. 04.00-05.00: Continue the leftward rotation and slow upward tilt. No other physical movement occurs. The skirt movement remains subtle, elegant and wind-driven, never becoming dramatic or exaggerated. 05.00-06.00: Complete the slow camera rotation and tilt-up movement with a gentle cinematic ease-out. End on a stable composition. The giant skirt may still have a minimal residual fabric flutter from the wind, while every other element remains absolutely frozen. Constraints: ABSOLUTE FREEZE EXCEPT FOR THE CAMERA AND THE GIANT SKIRT. The camera is the only moving rigid element. The giant skirt around the tennis ball is the only physical object allowed to move. No movement of the woman whatsoever. No blinking, breathing, facial movement, gaze movement, hair movement, bun movement, arm movement, hand movement, finger movement, racket movement, leg movement or foot movement. No movement of the tennis ball. No movement of the small tennis balls. No movement of the court, fencing, shadows, sky or background. No vegetation movement. No wind affecting any object except the giant skirt. The giant skirt moves only through subtle, believable wind interaction: individual pleats gently flutter, shift and settle with realistic fabric inertia, gravity and weight. No dramatic billowing and no deformation of the tennis ball. Preserve exact identity, proportions, wardrobe, product details, logos, textures and composition from @Image1. No object morphing, no new objects, no disappearance, no geometry changes, no camera shake, no zoom, no focus breathing, no exposure change, no lighting change and no artificial secondary motion.

Example prompt
Style/Camera: Photorealistic high-end fashion editorial, preserving @Image1 exactly as the visual reference. Single continuous 6-second shot. The camera is handheld, with very subtle organic human micro-movement: tiny natural lateral drift, minute framing instability and barely perceptible handheld breathing, never enough to change the composition significantly. The camera does NOT move through the scene or reframe dramatically. The image should feel like a real person holding a camera very steadily in front of the subject. Preserve the exact overhead composition, subject position, wardrobe, racket, tennis ball, court markings, net and shadows from @Image1. Audio: Very quiet outdoor padel-court ambience. Soft natural wind, with delicate fabric rustling synchronized to the headscarf. A barely audible passing-footstep ambience may be suggested by the unseen person casting the shadow, but the person itself is never visible. No dialogue, no music, no racket impact, no ball impact, no crowd. Lighting: Preserve the exact hard midday sunlight, exposure, color, contrast and sharp natural shadows of @Image1. The lighting source remains fixed. The only changing shadow is the temporary cast shadow of an unseen person walking behind the camera, passing across the illuminated court and over the woman. No change in sunlight direction, exposure or color temperature. Location: Exact outdoor padel court from @Image1, viewed from directly overhead. Preserve the magenta court, white lines, net, racket, tennis ball, woman, clothing, shoes and all spatial relationships exactly. The scene is intentionally surreal and photographically precise: the woman appears completely frozen on the court while an unseen passerby exists only through their moving shadow. Main Character/Characters: @Image1 is the exact reference for the woman and entire scene. The woman remains absolutely frozen in her original pose. Her face, sunglasses, head, body, arms, hands, fingers, clothing, shoes and every physical detail remain motionless. The racket remains completely frozen. The tennis ball remains completely frozen. The court, net, court lines and all background elements remain completely frozen. The only physical movement in the scene is the white headscarf around the woman's head, which gently moves in the wind. A second person is physically present OFF- CAMERA, behind the camera, and must NEVER become visible. Only this person's cast shadow is visible on the court and across the woman. Scene Flow: 00.00-01.50: Start exactly on @Image1. The woman and entire environment are frozen. The camera has subtle handheld micro-movement only. The headscarf begins a very gentle wind-driven flutter, with the loose end lifting and drifting slightly. The unseen passerby is still outside the visible shadow area. 01.50-03.00: The invisible passerby begins walking behind the camera. Their shadow enters the frame from one side and slowly travels across the magenta court and over the woman's body. The person themselves remain completely invisible and must never appear at the edge of frame. The woman remains perfectly frozen. Only the scarf moves gently in the wind and the shadow moves across the scene. 03.00-04.50: The passerby's shadow continues naturally across the woman and court, clearly reading as the shadow of a person walking behind the camera. The shadow has realistic proportions, foot placement and walking cadence, but remains only a cast shadow. The woman, racket, tennis ball, net and environment remain frozen. The scarf continues subtle wind movement. 04.50-06.00: The shadow exits the visible area, leaving the woman and court illuminated exactly as in the original frame. The camera maintains subtle handheld micro-movement. The headscarf continues a restrained, natural flutter and settles slightly toward the end. Finish with the composition still matching @Image1. Constraints: ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING IS FROZEN EXCEPT: 1. subtle handheld camera micro-movement; 2. gentle wind movement of the woman's headscarf; 3. the moving shadow cast by the unseen passerby behind the camera. The woman must not blink, breathe visibly, move her head, move her hands, move her fingers, shift her body, move her clothing, or change facial expression. The racket must not move. The tennis ball must not move. The net must not move. The court and all background elements must not move. No vegetation movement. No changing shadows except the single passing human shadow. No visible passerby, no body, no legs, no feet, no silhouette, no reflection and no secondary character appearing behind the camera. The shadow must clearly belong to a person walking behind the camera and must move continuously and naturally across the ground and the woman's body, while the source person remains completely off-screen. The headscarf movement must be subtle, lightweight and physically realistic: only the loose fabric responds to the breeze, with believable inertia and gravity. Do not move the woman's hair, head or body. Preserve the exact composition, wardrobe, colors, textures, geometry, court markings and lighting of @Image1. No cuts, no transitions, no zoom, no dolly, no orbit, no dramatic camera shake, no focus hunting, no exposure changes, no morphing, no object displacement, no extra people, no added objects, no artificial motion blur.

Before generating the next frame
- The VOLEA wordmark and V logomark match the supplied brand bible and appear only where the prompt permits them.
- The padel court remains saturated magenta-purple with lime balls, hard midday sun, and a vivid blue sky.
- People, garments, rackets, balls, and surreal scale relationships match the requested count and placement.
- The approved still is 4:5 vertical and free from extra text, logos, people, props, or distorted hands.
- During motion, only the camera and the explicitly permitted skirt, scarf, or passerby shadow move.
FAQ
Which model should I use for the seven stills?+
Use Riverflow 2.5 in Riverflow's image generator and generate at 4:5 vertical.
Which frames are animated?+
Cardigan Net, Skirted Ball, and Club Wall each have a matching six-second Seedance 2.0 prompt.
Do I need every reference image for every prompt?+
No. Follow each prompt's REFERENCE USE section: attach only the brand, face, previous-frame, and composition references assigned to that frame.
Why are the motion constraints so strict?+
The stills depend on precise surreal geometry. Freezing everything except the named movement protects product identity, composition, and continuity.
