Pixel Art Pelican Bridge Ride Animation

# 3D Voxel Animation Scene Generator

Create a complete 3D voxel/pixel-art style animation with the following specifications:

## Scene Description
{{scene-description}}

## Technical Requirements

### Art Style
- **Voxel aesthetic**: Chunky, volumetric pixels (3D cubes) with clean edges
- **Color palette**: Vibrant but cohesive; limit to 32-64 colors for authentic pixel-art feel
- **Lighting**: Soft ambient occlusion between voxels; single key light (warm sunlight) with subtle rim lighting
- **Texture**: Flat-shaded voxel faces; no gradients within individual cubes

### Animation Parameters
- **Duration**: 4-6 seconds loopable
- **Frame rate**: 24 fps
- **Camera**: Smooth tracking shot following the main subject; slight parallax on background elements
- **Motion**: Natural weight and timing—avoid floaty movement. Add secondary motion (slight body bob, wing micro-adjustments) for realism
- **Easing**: Ease-in-out on camera moves; constant velocity for cyclic actions (pedaling, wing flaps)

### Scene Composition
- **Foreground**: Hero subject with highest voxel density and detail
- **Midground**: Key environment elements (bridge structure, railings) with moderate detail
- **Background**: Simplified silhouette shapes suggesting depth; atmospheric fade (desaturate and lighten distant elements)
- **Scale hierarchy**: Ensure subject reads clearly against environment—use contrast in brightness and saturation

## Implementation Structure

### Modeling
1. Block out proportions with large voxels first
2. Refine character anatomy while maintaining stylized, readable silhouette
3. Add mechanical details (bicycle wheels as perfect voxel circles, spokes as radial cube arrays)
4. Model environment with architectural logic—bridge supports, cable patterns, building facades

### Rigging & Animation
1. Rig character with FK/IK bone chains for limbs
2. Create pedaling cycle (legs), handlebar grip, balance micro-adjustments
3. Bicycle wheel rotation synced to forward speed
4. Ambient animations: fluttering feathers/wings, head tracking, tail sway

### Rendering
- **Render engine**: Use path tracer or real-time engine with baked lighting
- **Post-processing**: Slight bloom on bright areas, minimal depth-of-field on distant background, optional subtle film grain
- **Output format**: MP4 (H.264) or GIF; include alpha channel if subject will be composited

## Deliverables

1. **Primary animation file**: Full scene render at 1920×1080 or higher
2. **Topology wireframe pass**: Show voxel grid structure (optional, for portfolio)
3. **Style frame**: Single hero frame showcasing composition and lighting

Ensure the final animation conveys **charm and craftsmanship**—the voxel medium should feel intentional, not aliased or low-effort. Every cube should be placed with purpose.
