Stylized 3D animated short film, indie art-house animation aesthetic. Semi-realistic painterly 3D render, naturalistic slender proportions with elegant elongated limbs, NOT cartoon, NOT oversized heads. Soft painterly skin with heavy subsurface scattering, freckles across nose and cheeks, natural blush. Hair rendered in thick painterly clumps with warm rim light. Hazy diffused lighting, heavy soft bloom, shallow depth of field, raindrops and mist suspended in light beams. Warm dusty palette. NOT photorealistic, NOT live action. CHARACTER: a young woman, early 20s, thick wavy auburn hair, freckled face, a soft mustard-yellow knit cardigan over a cream slip dress, bare feet, holding a chipped ceramic mug. LOCATION: a warm cluttered attic bedroom with a wide open window. Worn wooden floors, stacks of books, a rumpled linen bed, dried flowers in jars, string lights unlit on the wall. Outside, a hazy grey-gold sky over terracotta rooftops, the first heavy rain beginning to fall. COLOR 60:30:10 — 60% warm cream, wood, and dusty rose interior / 30% soft grey-gold rain light through the window / 10% accent of her mustard cardigan and auburn hair. 0–4s: medium shot, she sits curled in the window seat reading, mug in hand, warm lamplight on one side of her face. A low rumble outside. She glances up as the first fat raindrops streak the glass. 4–7s: close on her face, a slow smile spreading. She sets the mug down, pushes the window fully open, and warm damp air rushes in, lifting loose strands of her hair, pages of a book fluttering behind her. 7–9s: whip-cut to a wide as she leans right out into the rain, eyes closed, face tilted up, arms spread on the sill, letting it soak her hair and cardigan completely. 9–12s: slow motion. Raindrops burst against her upturned face and shoulders, each one catching the grey-gold light, her hair darkening and clinging, mist drifting off the rooftops behind her, a single deep breath lifting her chest. Pure stillness and bliss. 12–15s: back to real time. She laughs, shakes the water from her hair in a spray of droplets, pulls back inside soaked and grinning, and flops backward onto the bed with her arms spread wide. Rain drumming steadily outside. Hold on her happy, dripping face. CAMERA: warm medium shot in the window seat, slow push-in on her smile, whip-cut to wide as she leans out, drifting slow-motion push through the rain onto her face, static hold as she falls back onto the bed. AUDIO: quiet interior room tone, distant thunder rumble, first raindrops tapping glass, then the window opening into a full wash of falling rain, wind stirring paper. The slow motion drops into hushed suspension with only muffled rainfall and one long inhale, then bursts back into steady drumming rain, a bright laugh, and a soft thump onto the bed. FORBIDDEN: no named studio references, no readable text or logos, no photorealistic rendering, no oversized cartoon heads, no design drift, no harsh lighting, no saturated primary colors, no storm danger or distress.
