Cinematic One-Shot Biography of Su Shi

Short Filmby @非著名程序员 · source ↗August 16, 2026

Full prompt

Create a 30-second cinematic biographical video. The entire process must be a completely seamless, coherent, and uninterrupted long shot. There should be no cuts, fades, dissolves, resets, or montage effects. The camera can orbit, track, dive, rise, rotate, and pass through foreground obstacles, or temporarily obscure the character, but the final result must always appear as an uninterrupted moving shot.

**Core Concept**

A man's entire life, from youth to old age, condensed into an uninterrupted long shot. This man is Su Shi, the greatest literatus of the Northern Song Dynasty. He remains the same person, a continuous presence throughout the film, but his age, face, physique, hairstyle, clothing, expression, and temperament must change fluidly as he progresses through life stages. Every change must occur within the frame, tied closely to his movement with physical causality.

His evolution must be seamlessly connected: from a youth in Meishan to a scholar taking exams, then a talented young official entering the bureaucracy, followed by an outspoken official opposing reforms, then a prisoner in jail, a free-spirited poet in the fields of Huangzhou, an Academician returning to court, a local governor of Hangzhou, an old man exiled to Lingnan, and finally a wise man dying with a smile on his way back north. His face, body, beard, official robes or plain clothes, hats, and handheld objects must transition naturally with life stages. These changes must happen during motion and never as abrupt jumps.

**Tone**

Poetic, magnificent, soulful, open-minded, and filled with literary charm. The environment can be spectacular and dramatic, but the overall atmosphere always carries Su Shi's characteristic openness and warmth. Suitable for all ages, with no blood or violence.

**Audio Design (Seedance 2.5 Voice Format Instructions)**

This video uses Seedance 2.5 native audio generation, where visuals, voice, and sound effects are completed synchronously in one generation. The voice format rules are as follows:

- **Voiceover Narration** (Classical male voice recitation): Enclosed in double quotes "...", preceded by "Narrator recites in a steady classical middle-aged male voice:"

- **Environmental Sound Effects**: Marked with angle brackets <...>, e.g., <Wind rustling through bamboo forest>

- **Background Music**: Marked with parentheses (...), e.g., (Distant guzheng melody, slow and deep)

- **Mixing Priority**: Voiceover narration is clear and prominent, background music is lower than the voice, and environmental sound effects serve as the ambient layer.

Due to the limited voice capacity within 30 seconds (about 40-50 Chinese characters), please select 6 of the most representative poems or famous lines as voiceovers, while the rest of the scenes use sound effects and music to carry emotion.

**Narrative Timeline**

The 6 lines not only fit the current scenes but also form a complete spiritual arc of life:

1. "Where can life be compared? It should be like a flying swan treading on snow and mud." → **Departure**: Life is like a flying swan, unknown destination.

2. "Picking all cold branches but unwilling to roost, lonely and cold on the sandbank." → **Fall**: Nowhere to stay, extreme loneliness.

3. "Bamboo cane and straw shoes are lighter than a horse. Who's afraid? A life of misty rain in a coir raincoat." → **Awakening**: Letting go of everything, no longer afraid.

4. "Comparing West Lake to Xi Shi, light makeup or heavy is always suitable." → **Settling**: Reconciling with the world, loving the present.

5. "Eating three hundred lychees a day, I wouldn't mind being a Lingnan man forever." → **Open-mindedness**: Living flavorfully no matter where.

6. "Where this heart finds peace is my hometown." → **Return**: Having traveled the world, peace of heart is home.

Hearing them consecutively summarizes Su Shi's life spirit: Unknown destination → Nowhere to stay → No longer afraid → Loving the present → Living well anywhere → Peace is home.

## Opening: Meishan Youth (c. 1050, Su Shi aged 13-14)

Opens with early morning in Meishan, Sichuan.

A youth stands on a bamboo-shaded slope, overlooking the misty Minjiang Plain. Distant layered green mountains, nearby the eaves of his father's study. Morning light spills through bamboo leaves onto his face. He holds a scroll, eyes bright and curious. The youth has handsome features, wearing simple Sichuan student robes, hair tied in buns. The visual should immediately feel poetic and cinematic.

He hears a distant horn sound (symbolizing the call of the imperial exams), looks up, eyes flashing.

<Wind rustling bamboo forest, faint distant horn>

The camera moves as he turns and starts running down the bamboo path.

---

## First Transition: Meishan Youth → Scholar Heading for Exams (1056, age 20)

He runs through the bamboo forest, shadows sweeping over him. As the shadows pass, his face matures slightly, his stature grows, and the buns change into a young scholar's hairstyle. Simple student robes turn into a traveler's long robe. The scroll becomes a bundle.

The bamboo forest dissolves behind him, the mountain path becomes a government road to Bianjing. City outlines appear. His pace is steady, with the high spirits of a youth leaving Sichuan for the first time. The figure of his brother Su Zhe appears beside him (blurred as a background element).

Narrator recites in a steady classical middle-aged male voice: "Where can life be compared? It should be like a flying swan treading on snow and mud."

<Horse hooves, wind on the government road>

---

## Second Transition: Scholar → Young Talent on the Golden List (1057, age 21)

An imperial banner fluttering in the wind sweeps across the frame. As it passes his body, his traveler's robe turns into the blue official robe of a new jinshi. The bundle vanishes, replaced by a scroll of imperial decree. His gait becomes confident and high-spirited.

The government road becomes the stone-paved main street of the Bianjing imperial city. Towering palace buildings, red walls, yellow tiles, and bustling crowds appear on both sides. He walks through the crowd with a triumphant smile. Sunlight hits his young face, full of spirit.

<Crowd noise, distant celebratory music>

---

## Third Transition: Young Talent → Outspoken Official (1069-1071, age approx. 33)

A vermilion palace pillar sweeps across the foreground, temporarily obscuring him. When he reappears from behind the pillar, his face is more mature, with a neatly trimmed short beard. The color and patterns of the official robe become deeper, and he wears a black official hat. His expression turns from triumphant to serious and grave.

He is walking briskly through a court corridor, clutching a memorial. The environment becomes oppressive, the pillar's shadow elongating. Notices of Wang Anshi's reforms and arguing officials are faintly visible in the distance. His pace is urgent and steady, with the determination of one speaking truth to power.

<Urgent footsteps echoing in the empty corridor>

---

## Fourth Transition: Outspoken Official → Prisoner in the Crow Terrace Poetry Affair (1079, age 42)

The light in the corridor suddenly dims. The shadow of the pillar becomes the iron bars of a prison. His official robe loses color in the shadows, turning into a prisoner's coarse cloth. The black hat vanishes, hair becomes disheveled. The memorial in his hand turns into heavy chains.

His face is haggard, short beard messy, eyes sunken. He stumbles through a dim cell, but his gaze still holds unyielding light. There are water stains and carvings on the walls. A weak beam of light shoots from a high window onto his face.

Narrator recites in a steady classical middle-aged male voice: "Picking all cold branches but unwilling to roost, lonely and cold on the sandbank."

<Heavy chains dragging on the ground, water dripping echoes>

The camera rises with that beam of light.

---

## Fifth Transition: Prisoner → Open-minded Poet in Huangzhou (1080-1084, age approx. 45)

That light expands and warms, becoming the moonlight at Chibi in Huangzhou.

The prison walls shatter and dissolve, becoming the Chibi cliffs by the Yangtze River. The prison floor under his feet turns into riverbank rocks. The prison clothes turn into loose literary plain robes in the moonlight, a coarse belt tied at the waist. Chains vanish, a jug of wine appears in his hand. His hair is tied back again, but not in an official bun—instead a casual literati style with a Dongpo hat.

His face relaxes, though thin, his eyes have a transcendent light. He stands under the Chibi cliffs, the river wind blowing his robes. A small boat is in the distance on the river. He looks up at the moon, lips moving slightly as if reciting "The Yangtze River flows east." The entire person is completely liberated from the oppression of imprisonment, exuding a transcendent air.

Narrator recites in a steady classical middle-aged male voice: "Bamboo cane and straw shoes are lighter than a horse. Who's afraid? A life of misty rain in a coir raincoat."

<River wind howling, waves hitting rocks>

He turns and walks along the riverbank with a leisurely pace.

Original prompt

制作一段 30 秒的电影级人物传记视频,全程必须是一个完全无缝、连贯、不间断的长镜头。不能有任何剪切、淡入淡出、叠化、重置,也不能有蒙太奇的感觉。摄影机可以环绕、跟踪、俯冲、升起、旋转、穿过前景遮挡物,也可以暂时让角色被遮住,但最终呈现的效果必须始终像一个从未中断的运动镜头。

**核心概念**

一个男人的完整一生,从少年到暮年,浓缩在一个不间断的长镜头中。这个人是苏轼,北宋最伟大的文人。他始终是同一个人,是贯穿全片的连续存在,但他的年龄、面容、体态、发型、服饰、神情和气质要随着人生阶段的推进而流畅地变化。每一次变化都必须在镜头内完成,并且和他的运动紧密相连,有物理上的因果关系。

他的演变必须无缝衔接:眉山少年变成赶考书生,再变成初入仕途的青年才俊,然后是反对变法的直言官员,接着是身陷囹圄的阶下囚,再到黄州田野间的旷达诗人,然后是重返朝堂的翰林学士,再到治理杭州的地方长官,然后是流放岭南的老者,最后是北归途中含笑而逝的智者。他的面容、身形、胡须、官服或布衣、头冠或斗笠、手中之物都要随人生阶段自然过渡。这些变化必须在运动中发生,绝不能是突然跳变。

**基调**

诗意、壮阔、深情、豁达、充满文人气韵。环境可以很壮观、很有戏剧性,但整体氛围始终带着苏轼特有的旷达与温暖。适合全年龄观看,不出现血腥暴力。

**音频设计(Seedance 2.5 语音格式说明)**

本视频采用 Seedance 2.5 原生音频生成,画面、语音、音效在同一次生成中同步完成。语音格式规则如下:

- **画外旁白**(古风男声朗诵):用双引号 "..." 包裹,前面标注「旁白以沉稳古风中年男声朗诵:」

- **环境音效**:用尖括号 <...> 标注,如 <风吹竹林沙沙声>

- **背景音乐**:用圆括号 (...) 标注,如 (悠远的古琴旋律,缓慢而深沉)

- **混音优先级**:旁白语音清晰突出,背景音乐低于语音,环境音效作为氛围底层

由于 30 秒内语音容量有限(约 40-50 个中文字),请精选 6 句最具代表性的该人的诗句或者著名句子作为语音旁白,其余场景以环境音效和背景音乐承载情绪。

**旁白叙事线索**

6 句旁白不仅各自贴合当下场景,连起来还构成一条完整的人生精神弧线:

1. “人生到处知何似,应似飞鸿踏雪泥。”→ **出发**:人生如飞鸿,不知去向何方

2. “拣尽寒枝不肯栖,寂寞沙洲冷。”→ **跌落**:无处可栖,孤独至极

3. “竹杖芒鞋轻胜马,谁怕?一蓑烟雨任平生。”→ **觉醒**:放下一切,不再畏惧

4. “欲把西湖比西子,淡妆浓抹总相宜。”→ **安顿**:与世界和解,热爱眼前

5. “日啖荔枝三百颗,不辞长作岭南人。”→ **旷达**:无论到哪里,都能活得有滋味

6. “此心安处是吾乡。”→ **归处**:走遍天涯,心安即是家

连贯听下来就是苏轼一生的精神总结:不知去处 → 无处可栖 → 不再害怕 → 热爱当下 → 到哪都能活好 → 心安即归。

## 开场:眉山少年(约 1050 年,苏轼 13-14 岁)

以清晨的四川眉山开场。

一个少年站在竹林掩映的山坡上,俯瞰着雾气缭绕的岷江平原。远处是层叠的青山,近处是父亲书房的飞檐。晨光穿过竹叶洒在他脸上。他手中握着一卷书简,眼神明亮而好奇。少年面容清秀,穿着素净的蜀地学子服,头发束成总角。画面要一上来就给人诗意盎然的电影感。

他听到远处传来的号角声(象征科举的召唤),抬起头,眼中闪过光芒。

<风吹竹林沙沙声,远处隐约的号角>

摄影机随着他转身奔跑而开始运动。他沿着竹林小径飞奔而下。

---

## 第一次转变:眉山少年 → 进京赶考的书生(1056 年,20 岁)

他跑过竹林,竹影在他身上扫过。当竹影掠过的瞬间,他的面容稍稍成熟,身形拔高,总角变成了束发的青年书生发式。素净学子服变成了赶考途中的行旅长衫。手中的书简变成了一个包袱。

竹林在他身后消散,脚下的山间小径变成了通往汴京的官道。远处出现了城郭轮廓。他步伐坚定,带着少年人初出蜀地的意气风发。身旁出现了同行的弟弟苏辙的身影(虚化处理,作为背景元素)。

旁白以沉稳古风中年男声朗诵:“人生到处知何似,应似飞鸿踏雪泥。"

<马蹄声,官道上的风声>

---

## 第二次转变:赶考书生 → 金榜题名的青年才俊(1057 年,21 岁)

官道上一面迎风招展的旗幡扫过画面。旗幡掠过他身体的瞬间,他的行旅长衫变成了新科进士的青色官袍。包袱消失,手中出现了一卷诏书。他的步态变得自信昂扬。

脚下的官道变成了汴京皇城的石板大街。两侧出现了巍峨的宫殿建筑、红墙黄瓦、熙攘的人群。他穿过人群,面带春风得意的微笑。阳光打在他年轻的面庞上,整个人意气风发。

<人群喧闹声,远处的鼓乐声>

---

## 第三次转变:青年才俊 → 直言上书的官员(1069-1071 年,约 33 岁)

一根宫殿的朱红廊柱从画面前方掠过,暂时遮住他。当他从柱后重新出现时,面容更加成熟,下巴出现了修剪整齐的短须。官袍的颜色和纹饰变得更深沉,头上戴了乌纱官帽。他的表情从春风得意变为严肃凝重。

他正快步穿过朝堂的回廊,手中握着一份奏折。周围的环境变得压抑,廊柱的影子拉长。远处隐约可见王安石变法的告示和争论的官员身影。他的步伐急促而坚定,带着直言不讳的决然。

<急促的脚步声回响在空旷回廊中>

---

## 第四次转变:直言官员 → 乌台诗案中的囚徒(1079 年,42 岁)

回廊的光线骤然暗下来。廊柱的影子变成了牢狱的铁栏。他的官袍在阴影中褪去颜色,变成了囚犯的粗布衣裳。乌纱帽消失,头发散乱。手中的奏折变成了沉重的锁链。

他的面容憔悴了,短须变得凌乱,眼窝深陷。他在昏暗的牢房中踉跄前行,但目光中依然有不屈的光。墙壁上有水渍 and 刻痕。一束微弱的光从高处的小窗射入,照在他脸上。

旁白以沉稳古风中年男声朗诵:“拣尽寒枝不肯栖,寂寞沙洲冷。"

<锁链拖地的沉重声,滴水回响>

摄影机随着那束光上升。

---

## 第五次转变:囚徒 → 黄州的旷达诗人(1080-1084 年,约 45 岁)

那束光扩大、变暖,变成了黄州赤壁的月光。

牢房的墙壁碎裂、消散,变成了长江边的赤壁矶石。他脚下的牢房地面变成了江边的岩石。囚衣在月光中变成了宽松的文人布衣,腰间系着粗布带。锁链消失,手中出现了一壶酒。他的头发重新束起,但不再是官式发髻,而是随意的文人束发,戴着一顶东坡巾。

他的面容舒展开来,虽然清瘦,但眼中有了旷达的光芒。他站在赤壁之下,江风吹动他的衣袍。远处江面上有一叶扁舟。他仰头望月,嘴唇微动,仿佛正在吟诵"大江东去"。整个人从囚徒的压抑中彻底解放,散发着超然物外的气度。

旁白以沉稳古风中年男声朗诵:“竹杖芒鞋轻胜马,谁怕?一蓑烟雨任平生。"

<江风呼啸,水浪拍击岩石>

他转身,沿着江岸行走,脚步从容。
