Tiny Cardboard Kitten: AI Video Prompt

Create one complete original 10-second photorealistic macro video in vertical 9:16 format, using a stop-motion crafting aesthetic.
Subject: A small seated kitten sculpture with triangular ears, rounded cheeks, two front paws together and a curled tail resting beside its body. Use layered brown cardboard and fine paper strips for whiskers.
0–2 seconds: Begin immediately with realistic adult hands arranging small pieces of discarded corrugated cardboard on white paper on a tidy workbench. Show the beginnings of the subject’s body and head.
2–7 seconds: Use coherent stop-motion increments to build the same sculpture piece by piece. Show believable additions of cardboard, careful glue placement and progressively finer details. Keep the sculpture’s scale, pose and anatomy consistent. Do not replace it with a different finished object.
7–10 seconds: The hands withdraw to reveal the completed miniature. Use a gentle camera move to show its depth and layered texture. The sculpture remains an inanimate handmade object.
Use soft side lighting, a shallow depth of field and a clean, unobtrusive background. Preserve exposed corrugated edges, paper fibres, small folds and natural material variation. Suggest detail through cardboard construction rather than realistic animal fur.
Audio: subtle paper handling and quiet workbench sounds. No dialogue, captions, logos or watermark. No extra fingers, duplicated limbs, melting shapes, sudden material changes or transformation into a living animal. Generate directly from the text.
