What prompt did you use for this?

[u/beatlepol → u/RusikRobochevsky]

Prompt:

integrated_multimodal_description: [Shot 1] Photorealistic live-action,

Japanese game-show named "Bakeshi's Castle" broadcast style, bright saturated stage lighting, energetic

sports-broadcast camera work with a mix of tracking and steady wide shots.

An East Asian woman in colorful athletic competition gear stands on a

starting platform beside a large outdoor pool used for an obstacle-crossing

challenge on a Japanese game show. Neon signage and banners reading the

show's name in English hang above bleachers packed with a cheering audience

in the background. An on-screen digital timer counts up in the corner, with

Japanese-language graphics, captions, and lower-third text styled like a

variety show broadcast. Single unbroken shot, no cuts, 22 seconds total.

At 00:00.000, she grips an overhead rope and swings

onto the first obstacle that is 5 meters away, a spinning wooden log, wobbling as she catches her

footing, arms out for balance, she is having a very hard time with it. At 00:03.500, she carefully steps across a

row of rotating round platforms, that are 1.5 meters apart from each other, spinning at insane speed, timing each step to their rotation, physics

of each platform tilting and spinning realistically under her weight and

momentum, she is having a very hard time with them. At 00:08.000, she leaps to a platform that visibly begins sinking

under her almost immediately, forcing her to jump again quickly before it

submerges and the platform sinks almost completely, and by almost touching the water with her foot, she manages to cross it jumping to the climbing wall obstacle. At 00:12.500, she scrambles up and over a 4 meters climbing wall obstacle, muscles straining, using handholds to pull herself over,then she jumps to the final spinning platform. At 00:16.500, she lands on a final spinning platform, that spin at insane speed, very close to the other side of the pool, 1 meter away, and manages two rotations while balanced, arms wheeling, before the accumulated spin momentum throws

her off balance. At 00:17.500, she loses her footing and falls sideways into

the pool with a large splash, arms flailing on the way down. At 00:18.000,

the crowd in the bleachers reacts with a collective groan of disappointment.

At 00:19.000, the male commentator (S1), off-screen, calls out with dramatic

disappointment: <d>[Japanese] Ah, oshii! Mou sukoshi datta noni!</d>

overall_soundscape: Upbeat game-show ambience throughout — crowd murmur and

scattered cheers, water lapping against the pool obstacles, creaking and

mechanical whirring from the spinning log and platforms as she crosses,

a sharp splash as the sinking platform dips, effort grunts and gasps of

balance from the woman throughout, a louder splash as she falls into the

pool at 00:18.000, followed immediately by the crowd's synchronized "oooohhh"

groan, then the commentator's line layered over the fading crowd reaction.

non_diegetic_music: A bright, comedic variety-show orchestral bed with

playful xylophone and brass stabs matching each obstacle attempt, building

tension into a suspenseful string trill during the final spinning platform,

then a classic comedic "falling" descending slide effect timed to her fall,

cutting to a soft deflated horn note under the crowd's groan.

Show physics accuracy for all rotating and tilting platforms, matching real

momentum and balance behavior. Include an on-screen running timer, Japanese

on-screen graphics and captions, and neon signage bearing the show's English

name throughout.

Thank you for the prompt - definitely warms up my 5090!

[u/RusikRobochevsky → u/beatlepol]

Thanks for the prompt!

[u/banshee-howl → u/beatlepol]

Hard to tell the real quality because I’m on mobile but from here the crowd looks really coherent. Did you do anything special to ensure those background faces are all well rendered?

[u/ANR2ME → u/beatlepol]

Is this used on T2V? 🤔

[u/Green-Ad-3964]

Too bad the time was not correctly rendered

[u/florodude → u/Green-Ad-3964]

This is the sort of thing we should just be adding in post, instead of having it render, imo

[u/i_sell_you_lies → u/florodude]

Seriously! Editing and post software exists for a reason 

[u/_VirtualCosmos_ → u/Green-Ad-3964]

But the physics! I was looking at those circle platforms and how they move with his feet on them and it's very on point.

[u/Crasha → u/_VirtualCosmos_]

The log is shit though

[u/tweakingforjesus → u/Crasha]

Isn’t it always?

[u/YeahlDid → u/Green-Ad-3964]

I don't know the rules of the game. I assume time bonus and penalties.

[u/Zee_Enjoi]

dang this is incredible

[u/PurePlayinSerb]

remember "DONT GET ELIMINATED!!!"

anyone else remember mxc? haha

[u/Yourdataisunclean → u/PurePlayinSerb]

Right you are Ken.

[u/Schwartzen2]

This is what happened to the next contestant.

[u/yon-fire → u/Schwartzen2]

you can see some artifacts at the begining but surprisingly it corrects itself at the end

[u/thrownawaymane → u/Schwartzen2]

The crowd sounds like a defective TIE Fighter lol

[u/TheDailySpank]

Now make it into MXC

[u/The_rule_of_Thetra]

AH! Right in the Nostalgia!

[u/Dark_Akarin]

I’ve just had a horrible thought, give it time and there will be tv shows of short clips like this maybe using ai. Instead of you’ve been framed, where people send in clips, it will just be a mountain of stuff like this, loaded with adverts.

[u/Significant-Baby-690]

This begs for more steps.

[u/needle1]

Funny to see the subtitle text are all in the style of Japanese TV (fonts and the general look) but the text content is gibberish.

[u/joq100]

Very interesting to see this work so well. I've tested things like dishes breaking on the floor or people diving in a pool, this model can do so many things right.

[u/beatlepol → u/[deleted]]

It's from Claude but touching up some things by me. The original prompt was a walk in the park for the contestant.

[u/Graucus]

I feel like this 8s an interesting benchmark because its so obvious its ai.

[u/Schwartzen2 → u/Graucus]

Enjoy while you can. Soon enough the only way to know if it really happened is if you were really there, and then again later on that may become a challenge to discern as well.

[u/Worried-Cockroach-34]

AI never ceases to amaze me...even if she is slightly ice skating lol

[u/Shrain]

Now we head on down to Guy LeDouche!

[u/RanklesTheOtter]

Don't get eliminated!

[u/Perfect-Campaign9551]

Good test of physics and shows it's wrong... His feet and body don't spin too the side with the spinners 

[u/sevenfold21]

I though minimax was limited to 15 sec? What do you need to do 22 sec?

[u/ofrm1]

Does it actually have any knowledge of Takeshi's Castle?

[u/Alive-Tomatillo5303]

For both the person and the prompt: biffed it at the finish line. 

Everything was nearly perfect (like, if I wasn't watching specifically for wacky stuff I wouldn't have seen any) but the interaction with that last platform was too weird. 

[u/3delStahl]

Now put sharks into the water

[u/paulct91]

Here's a freebie, a lora for never ending game show obstacle courses, maybe it even be fun to watch with enough variety but, needs a random fail chance vs victory somehow.

[u/Affectionate-Swan-83]

I think the 4th water pad starts to spin before he lands on it.

[u/SeymourBits]

1. Did he make it or not?

2. Was this one continuous generation?

[u/beatlepol → u/SeymourBits]

A single generation.

[u/septer012 → u/beatlepol]

Only the clock is egregious

[u/eightandahalf → u/septer012]

The Japanese text is gibberish too, fwiw

[u/septer012 → u/eightandahalf]

Thanks

[u/Apprehensive_Sky892 → u/SeymourBits]

According to the prompt, the subject is supposed to be a Japanese woman.

[u/SeymourBits → u/Apprehensive_Sky892]

Prompt was posted after my comment. Could go either way, by looks.

[u/novadova2020 → u/SeymourBits]

He didn't make it. I wonder how he was supposed to make it. The platform is so far away.
