Prompt draft

A grounded 15-second documentary sequence at blue-hour dawn. 0 to 3 seconds: close-up on a radio dial. 3 to 7 seconds: handheld tracking through a concrete corridor. 7 to 11 seconds: overhead view of civilians crossing a bridge. 11 to 15 seconds: slow push toward the operator as the signal turns green. Dust, boots, radio static, and wind carry across the cuts. Fictional location, no flags or real organizations.

Replace the subject and reference roles first. Change camera, timing, and sound one variable at a time.
