Step 1 / A still, made with Nano Banana Pro
A tall vertical frame from a hand-painted 2D Chinese ink-wash animation on rice paper, composed like a hanging scroll: expressive black ink brushstrokes, soft grey washes, paper grain, a small vermilion seal stamp in a corner with no readable characters. The Li River near Xingping at dawn: tall karst peaks dissolving into mist, still water. A small bamboo raft in the lower third with an old fisherman in a conical bamboo hat and a grey jacket holding a long pole, a paper lantern hanging from a pole, and two black cormorants perched on the raft. Palette: ink black, rice-paper cream, vermilion. Vast negative space.
Step 2 / Brought to life with Kling O3 Pro
Ink-wash 2D animation: the fisherman pushes the raft forward with his pole and ripples spread as brush strokes; one cormorant dives and surfaces with a silver fish; mist drifts across the peaks; the lantern sways. Painted, hand-drawn motion. Sound: water lapping, a cormorant's call, a distant guqin.
