Axe kick

The prompt

Stylized 3D animated feature, low-angle shot of a stout older karate fighter with a grey crew cut in a navy gi performing a single axe kick in a lantern-lit wooden dojo at night, expressive animation, the camera tilting with the leg. 0–2s: he stands in a fighting stance, fists raised, the camera low near his feet. 2–4s: his straight right leg swings up in a high arc, the camera tilting up with it until the heel rises above his head against the lanterns. 4–6s: in slow motion the heel chops straight down, the camera following it to the floor, dust jumping off the boards. 6–8s: he settles into his stance with a sharp exhale. Throughout: full body in frame, warm lantern glow, polished floor reflections.
