Stone Humanoid Stop-Motion Animation

Create a 21-second vertical cinematic stop-motion animation in 9:16 format. A small humanoid figure made entirely of smooth beach stones in natural shapes comes to life in a shallow tide pool on a rocky coast. Each body part is built from individual stones — a large oval stone as the head, rounded stones stacked for the torso, smaller stones forming arms and legs. The scene is filmed through a slightly blurred wire mesh fence, creating a natural foreground frame. Behind the character, there is a calm shoreline, shallow sea water, barnacle-covered rocks, seaweed, and a softly blurred forest under an overcast sky. Photorealistic textures, muted natural colors, shallow depth of field, realistic water reflections. Animation: The stone figure slowly balances and begins to move like a playful little human. It shifts weight, lifts a leg, bends its knees, swings its stone arms, and performs a quirky, cute dance while carefully maintaining balance on the wet surface. Small ripples form under each step, and its reflection moves naturally in the water. The movements should feel like handmade stop-motion, slightly imperfect but believable, with realistic stone physics and weight. In the final seconds, the figure loses its balance, trips, and collapses naturally, with individual stones separating and rolling onto the shallow wet ground. The character completely disassembles into ordinary stones. End with the camera maintaining focus on the scattered stones and their reflections. Camera: fixed vertical smartphone-style composition, subtle natural camera movement, medium-full shot, low angle near water level, strong foreground bokeh from the fence, cinematic depth of field. Lighting: soft, diffused daylight, overcast coastal atmosphere, realistic reflections and highlights on wet stones. Style: ultra-realistic live-action environment + whimsical photorealistic stone stop-motion character, tactile stone textures, physically believable movement, cinematic macro photography, no CGI-looking surfaces, no text, no humans. Negative prompt: cartoon, plastic-looking stones, exaggerated facial features, smooth CGI character, floating objects, unrealistic physics, extra limbs, changing environment, camera cuts, text, watermark, over-saturated colors.
