Video Prompt: PART-1 (0:00–0:15) Cinematic live-action martial arts short film.

CUT 14 [0:13–0:14] - Rapid handheld close-ups (2 quick cuts within this second): fists and elbows striking the Wing Chun dummy from multiple angles, dummy shaking violently. CUT 15 [0:14–0:15] - Camera pulls back into a wide static hero shot: final palm strike splits the dummy in half in slow motion, splinters exploding outward; JESSY holds a perfect Shaolin stance, robe settling in the breeze.
