Create a 10-second photorealistic vertical 9:16 cinematic video capturing a smart golden retriever helping an elderly person.

0–3 seconds: Eye-level view of a modern glass-panel bus shelter on a damp city sidewalk after a gentle rain. On the weathered wooden bench lies a smartphone with a bright cyan case.
3–7 seconds: A gentle Golden Retriever wearing a brown leather collar walks past with his owner, halts abruptly beside the bench, and tilts his head to inspect the glowing device.
7–10 seconds: The dog turns toward an elderly woman in a maroon wool coat who just stood up, nudging her coat gently with his wet nose while gesturing his head toward the bench to alert her.

Lighting: Overcast London-style ambient daylight, soft reflections on wet concrete, subtle street lamp illumination.
Camera: Handheld cinematic style, medium close-up focusing on the dog's expressive amber eyes and the phone.
Audio: Distant city traffic hum, light rain dripping from glass roof, soft canine whine, quiet footsteps on wet pavement.

Practical Generation Tips

To make an animal's alerting behavior look convincing, prompt for a two-stage motion: first noticing (halt, ear perk, head tilt) followed by communication (nose nudge, tail wag).
