Volcanic Crater Coffee Cup Surrealism

A surreal documentary-style video prompt for Seedance 2.5 where a man escaping a volcanic crater is revealed to be inside a coffee cup on a dining table.

Prompt
[Goal] Generate a documentary-style live-action short video. The subject is a 'man with 7/3 parted hair'. The main event follows the man escaping a volcanic crater, until a wide shot reveals the true nature of the world. [Character] The man corresponds to both @image1 and @image2. @image1 defines the hairstyle, body type, navy suit, white shirt, and red tie. @image2 defines his facial features, black round glasses, and front teeth. Only one man should be in the output. [Setting] The crater refers to @image3 (lava lake shape, rock position, steam). The breakfast table refers to @image4 (wood grain, white mug shape and texture). The circular outline of the crater in @image3 and the mug in @image4 are treated as the same shape. [Subject Profile] 168cm tall, thin body. Mouth remains closed, no dialogue. [Text] The man runs across black rocks surrounded by a lake of molten lava. Steam rises and red splatters jump. The footage is live-action documentary style with visible pores, suit fabric texture, and reflections on glasses. Composed of 4 scenes with fixed camera cuts. [Stage 1] 0-6s: Close-up of the face reflecting red light on glasses, starts running away from camera. [Stage 2] 6-14s: Running across rocky terrain, jumping over glowing cracks, ends crouching low on a rock. [Stage 3] 14-21s: Top-down bird's-eye view, standing small on a rock in the center of the red lake as steam rises. [Stage 4] 21-27s: Widescreen shot reveals the crater is actually the inside of a white mug on a wooden table. A silver spoon descends from above. [Audio] Low sustained string notes, lava sounds transitioning to the sound of a spoon hitting ceramic and kitchen ambience in stage 4. [Consistency] Keep appearance and suit consistent throughout. No other people. No table elements visible until stage 4. [Prohibitions] No opening mouth, no speaking, no text/logos, no moving camera during scenes, no changing clothes.
