The prompt

Scene paragraph A winding road through red desert canyons on a hot afternoon, photoreal road movie. A rusty orange vintage camper van drives along the road; at the wheel is a woman in her sixties with silver hair, sunglasses and a denim shirt. Towering red rock walls, blue sky, dust in the air. Live-action footage shot on 35mm film, real people, natural skin and textures.

Front three-quarter tracking shot from a camera car alongside the van, matching its speed from the first second. 0–2s: the van fills the left of the frame, sun glinting on the windshield. 2–4s: the camera car holds pace beside it. 4–6s: canyon walls and roadside scrub stream past while the van stays steady in the frame. 6–8s: she sticks her arm out of the window into the wind, smiling. Throughout: the camera matches the van's speed, one continuous take.
