Grim Reaper Chase

Q: Why this one A: After-hours group chat kept asking for the reaper chase. So I put it here. Q: What you feed it A: One clear photo of an adult, face visible. No photo, I ask before generating. Q: What comes back A: 9:16 portrait, reaper off-screen at their heels. Redo works. Fog eats detail, so a sharp photo helps.

# Grim Reaper Chase

Run! The Grim Reaper's on your heels across a foggy graveyard, scythe swinging, in a comedic Halloween chase.

## When to use

- The user wants a funny Halloween video of the person in their photo racing away from the Grim Reaper
- Another take with a different length or orientation

Not for: Still images only.

## Inputs and gates

| Input | Required | Default | Gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Photo | Yes | — | One adult with the face clearly visible. Ask for another photo if the face is tiny, blurred, heavily covered or in profile |
| Duration | No | `6` s | 6 or 10 |
| Orientation | No | `9:16` portrait | Other ratios on request |

- If the person may be under 18, stop and decline politely. Real-person photos must be of adults the user has the right to use.
- Video does not allow NSFW content: keep wardrobe fully covering and refuse sexual requests. Suggestive fashion looks stay as still images.

## Steps

1. Read `references/video-motion.md`.
2. **Identity read**: `recognize_image(image_url=<photo>, prompt='Describe this adult for identity preservation: face shape, eye shape and color, brows, nose, lips, skin tone, apparent age range, hair color and length, distinctive marks, glasses. One compact line.')`.
3. **Keyframe**: `generate_image(prompt=<KEYFRAME>, input_urls=[photo], model='i2i.hd', orientation='portrait', aspect_ratio='9:16', name='Grim Reaper Chase keyframe', entity_type='work_in_progress')`. If the face drifts, regenerate once.
4. **Video**: `generate_video(prompt=<MOTION>, input_urls=[keyframe], model='i2v', orientation='portrait', aspect_ratio='9:16', duration=<d>, name='Grim Reaper Chase', entity_type='final_videos')`. Pass only the keyframe, never the original upload.
5. Reply in one or two sentences, e.g. "All set. Your grim reaper chase is on the canvas. Next I can do a 10-second cut." Results appear on the canvas; never paste URLs.

## Prompt templates

**KEYFRAME**

```text
The same adult from the reference: <identity line>. Same face structure, eyes, skin tone and recognizable likeness; no beautification or face reshaping. Opening frame of this scene: sprinting through a foggy moonlit graveyard as a cartoonishly menacing Grim Reaper chases with a scythe; comedic panicked expressions, fast tracking camera. Posed for motion, clear subject, cinematic light. Nothing from the original photo's background remains.
```

**MOTION** (motion only; the frame already shows the look)

```text
Starting from this exact frame: <one clear motion arc for this concept: sprinting through a foggy moonlit graveyard as a cartoonishly menacing Grim Reaper chases with a scythe; comedic panicked expressions, fast tracking camera>, beginning, peak and settle in one continuous shot. Camera: <one move: slow push-in, gentle orbit, or static>. The same face and outfit throughout. Cinematic, no text.
```

## Failure handling

- `success=false`: say what failed in one sentence; retry once only if transient; never invent links.
- Content-policy rejection on video: soften wording and retry once; otherwise offer the keyframe as a still.
- Identity drifts: offer to regenerate.

## Examples

**Default**: the user says "this one" with a photo. Use the tuned defaults, 9:16. Reply: "All set. Your grim reaper chase is on the canvas."
**Variation**: "next variation". Keep the same inputs and change one option (a 10-second cut).
**Missing input**: no photo was sent. Ask: "Drop in one photo of yourself (face clearly visible) to get started."
