[GEN 1 — SUNFLOWER'S REDEMPTION]
[GLOBAL] Photoreal, raw unedited camera footage — natural and practical light only, slightly low contrast and low saturation, flat muted natural tones, NO color grading, not cinematic, looks like real untouched footage straight off the camera; very shaky handheld camera — constant organic jitter, drift and breathing sway, never smooth, never stabilized. DAVE: a man in his early thirties with a thick ginger beard, a dented steel saucepan worn upside down on his head with the handle pointing to his right, a white short-sleeved polo shirt and khaki trousers (match @Image1 exactly). SUNFLOWER: a tall real sunflower with golden petals whose seed disc forms a gentle smiling face (match @Image2 exactly). SUNFLOWER TURNED: a tall sunflower with dark purple-black torn petals, a split seed disc ringed with seed-shell fangs, two glowing white eyes and broad leaves that curl and grip (match @Image3 exactly). PEA PLANT: the waist-high pea plants guarding the yard, each with a hollow wooden muzzle (match @Image4 exactly). ZOMBIE: grey-green skin, milky eyes, an old brown suit and a red striped tie (match @Image5 exactly). SHOTGUN: DAVE's double-barrel shotgun (match @Image6 exactly). FRONT PORCH: the front porch and arched front door (match @Image7 exactly). BACK YARD: the sunlit back yard with its lawn and white picket fence (match @Image8 exactly). The performance must read as real human behaviour — natural breathing that visibly moves the chest and shoulders, natural blinking at a rate matching the emotion, small involuntary movements (swallowing, a hand tightening on the SHOTGUN, a flinch), micro-expressions flickering across the face. Describe emotion ONLY as visible physical behaviour — never name a feeling. Even when described as still, DAVE is NEVER absolutely still. Dialogue in English, lips in sync. No on-screen text, captions or subtitles. No background music — diegetic sound only.
Shot 1 — Medium, camera behind DAVE's right shoulder on the FRONT PORCH: a ZOMBIE shuffles up to the arched front door, jaw hanging; DAVE drives the SHOTGUN's wooden stock into the ZOMBIE's face with a hard CRACK, the ZOMBIE topples backwards off the porch steps, and DAVE blows out one sharp breath, turns and pushes in through the door.
Shot 2 — Close follow shot behind DAVE's back through the dark hallway, DAVE's white shirt the only bright shape, floorboards CREAKING under quick steps; DAVE opens the back door and the afternoon sun floods in around DAVE's silhouette.
Shot 3 — Wide, camera behind DAVE's shoulder in the back doorway, facing the sunlit BACK YARD: by the white picket fence the SUNFLOWER TURNED stands with its back to the camera, dark petals twitching, one PEA PLANT standing right beside it; the SUNFLOWER TURNED turns its head toward the camera, two white eyes glowing, while the PEA PLANTS in the beds on both sides swivel their muzzles toward the SUNFLOWER TURNED with a wet creak.
Shot 4 — Medium, camera following DAVE from behind as DAVE runs onto the lawn and stops between the PEA PLANTS and the SUNFLOWER TURNED, flinging both arms wide, the SHOTGUN swinging from DAVE's right hand.
Shot 5 — Medium close-up, camera low in front of DAVE, PEA PLANTS blurred in the near left foreground: arms still wide, chest heaving, DAVE looks from one PEA PLANT to the other, swallows, and says breathless and pleading, "Please… don't hurt her."
Shot 6 — Close-up over DAVE's shoulder on one PEA PLANT: its head rears back, the stem tightening with a wet creak.
Shot 7 — Medium close-up on DAVE, low angle, a PEA PLANT blurred in the foreground: DAVE swings the SHOTGUN level at the PEA PLANTS, both hands shaking on the stock, and says with a cracking voice, "Don't hurt her. Trust me… she'll turn back." Over DAVE's right shoulder the SUNFLOWER TURNED rises up, fanged mouth parting, and shoves DAVE down.
Shot 8 — Low angle from the grass: DAVE falls flat on the lawn with a heavy THUD, and the SUNFLOWER TURNED lunges over DAVE, fanged face and glowing eyes filling the frame above the lens.
Shot 9 — Close-up, a warm memory in bright sun by the fence: the SUNFLOWER alone, golden petals stirring in the breeze, smiling seed face, head tilting a little toward the camera, pollen drifting through the light; the camera stays on the golden SUNFLOWER for the whole shot.
Shot 10 — Overhead close-up looking straight down at DAVE lying face up in the grass, the back of the SUNFLOWER TURNED's head blurred in the foreground, the saucepan knocked crooked: DAVE blinks up, dazed, grass on one cheek.
Shot 11 — Side view at ground level: the SUNFLOWER TURNED lifts the SHOTGUN with one curled leaf and presses the twin barrels under DAVE's chin with a metallic CLICK-CLACK as the hammers cock; DAVE's eyes find the glowing eyes above, DAVE's mouth trembles, and on a breath DAVE says, "No…"
Shot 12 — Close-up on the SUNFLOWER TURNED's face above the barrels: one petal at the edge of the dark head flushes back to gold, the white glow in the eyes softens to a warm amber, and the curled leaf tightens on the trigger.
Shot 13 — Close-up on DAVE from above: DAVE screams "NO!" as the barrels release a blast of warm golden sunlight with a deep ringing HUM; the light pours over DAVE's face and DAVE's whole body breaks into thousands of floating golden motes drifting up through the grass, the scream thinning into the hum.
Shot 14 — Close-up on DAVE in warm afternoon sun, the BACK YARD as it once was: DAVE in a clean white shirt, a watering can in one hand, kneels on the lawn beside the smiling SUNFLOWER, closes both eyes and rests one cheek against the golden petals, and the SUNFLOWER bends its head down against DAVE's.
