The hand reaches towards the lid and pulls it open to reveal the precooked noodles with a slightly distorted heat wave oozing from them. Same kitchen. Close-up of the noodles with the seasoning packet.

Red-hot lava-like liquid pouring into the noodles to cook them while the cup noodles are orbiting. Follow the original image framing.

Wide shot of him letting go with his hand and tossing the chillies and spices towards the cup noodles. Cinematic kitchen, chef apron. Same framing. Epic and cinematic.

He picks up the cooked noodles with chopsticks while the noodles radiate heat. Cinematic kitchen bokeh background.

He pushes the noodles towards the camera lens while shooting a flamethrower from his mouth. The whole house catches fire. He looks shocked and tries to stop the fire from coming out with his other hand. Cinematic living room. Do not change his original pose. Keep his face consistent.

@[Video 1](video_1) ,  ABSOLUTE MOTION MASTER: preserve the uploaded reference video's shot order, camera path, framing, camera height, lens perspective, character placement, hand movement, body movement and transitions as closely as possible.


@[Image 1](image_1) ,  CUP REVEAL: cinematic POV hand reaching toward Indomie Pop Mie Pedas and peeling open the lid, revealing precooked noodles, seasoning packets and fork, premium modern kitchen, steam and heat distortion.


@[Image 4](image_4) ,  LAVA POUR: glowing red-orange lava-like spicy sauce pouring into the noodles, violent bubbling, chilli oil, steam and extreme heat.


@[Image 3](image_3) ,  SPICE THROW: same premium kitchen, same character in black shirt and chef apron, close-up fist filled with chillies and spices, then source-motion speed ramp into a wide dramatic throw toward the cup.


@[Image 2](image_2) ,  NOODLE LIFT: glossy red-orange noodles lifted with chopsticks, intense steam, chilli flakes and visible heat-wave distortion against cinematic kitchen bokeh.


 BITE / FIRE EYES: same character actually eating the noodles, exact same face, fiery pupils igniting immediately after the bite, kitchen shifting from warm amber to red-orange.


@[Image 5](image_5) ,  FINAL FIRE: same character pushing Pop Mie Pedas toward camera using the reference pose, uncontrolled fire erupting from his mouth, free hand trying to stop it, same home rapidly catching fire.


Use the images ONLY for:
- environment
- lighting
- product appearance
- food styling
- wardrobe
- VFX
- set design
- color


@[Video 1](video_1) remains the authority for:
- camera movement
- framing
- camera height
- camera angle
- lens perspective
- character position
- hand movement
- body movement
- shot order
- transitions


If an image conflicts with the video framing, FOLLOW THE VIDEO.


OUTPUT:
16:9 horizontal landscape.
Approximately 13 seconds.
English-language commercial.


==================================================
CORE DIRECTION
==================================================


Transform the reference video into a premium, fast, absurdly dramatic and funny commercial for:


INDOMIE POP MIE PEDAS


Core escalation:


STEAM
→ LAVA
→ SPICE EXPLOSION
→ EXTREME HEAT
→ BITE
→ FIRE EYES
→ PRODUCT HERO
→ FLAMETHROWER
→ HOUSE FIRE.


The commercial must feel:
- premium
- cinematic
- energetic
- funny
- photorealistic
- intense
- polished
- high-end food advertising


The food must look genuinely delicious.


The ridiculous effects escalate gradually.


Treat the entire thing with blockbuster seriousness.


==================================================
IMPORTANT TEXT RULE
==================================================


DO NOT SHOW ANY SUPERS, TITLES, GRAPHIC TEXT OR ADVERTISING COPY DURING THE COMMERCIAL.


From 0.0s until the final brand moment:
NO SUPERS.


Do not show:
- "TURN UP THE HEAT"
- "IT BITES BACK"
- "SPICY"
- "CHILLI"
- "WARNING"
- any other floating commercial text


Let the imagery, VO, sound design and VFX carry the commercial.


The ONLY supers appear at the very end.


==================================================
REFERENCE VIDEO LOCK
==================================================


DO NOT create a brand-new commercial.


The final result must still clearly resemble the original reference footage.


Preserve:
- source motion choreography
- POV movement
- hand trajectories
- noodle lift
- eating action
- product push
- final body pose
- camera direction
- transition logic


Creative enhancement is allowed through:
- speed ramps
- slow motion
- lighting
- heat distortion
- steam
- spice particles
- sparks
- fire
- sound design
- cinematic music
- focus shifts


Do not add unrelated shots.


==================================================
CHARACTER IDENTITY LOCK
==================================================


Keep the EXACT SAME MAN from the reference video.


Preserve:
- face
- jaw
- cheeks
- eyes
- eyebrows
- nose
- lips
- earrings
- hairstyle
- hairline
- skin tone
- body shape
- age


Do not redesign his face.


His performance should remain based on the source.


The man speaks very little.


Character dialogue is limited to:
"Wait..."
and
"Whoa!"


Everything else comes from the narrator.


==================================================
ENVIRONMENT CONTINUITY
==================================================


All scenes happen inside ONE premium modern cinematic home.


The kitchen and final living area belong to the same house.


Use:
- dark walnut
- black finishes
- reflective stainless steel
- warm amber practical lights
- red accent lighting
- cinematic bokeh


The same environment gradually changes:


warm
→ orange
→ red
→ fire.


Do not generate different locations.


==================================================
0.0 - 2.0s
POV REACH → PEEL → HOT REVEAL
==================================================


FOLLOW THE EXACT SOURCE POV MOVEMENT.


Use @[Image 1](image_1).


The hand reaches toward the Pop Mie Pedas cup.


SPEED RAMP:


normal
→ fast approach
→ slow as fingers catch foil tab
→ fast peel.


The lid opens using the source hand motion.


Reveal:
- noodles
- seasoning packets
- fork
- condensation
- steam


The air above the noodles visibly bends from heat.


Show:
- shimmering air
- steam
- subtle heat distortion
- tiny red-orange glow


No flames yet.


SFX:
POV whoosh
foil peel
steam hiss
low heat rumble


NARRATOR:


"Think you can handle spicy?"


Tiny beat.


"Good."


NO SUPER.


==================================================
2.0 - 4.0s
LAVA SAUCE POUR
==================================================


FOLLOW THE SOURCE CUP-CENTERED CAMERA MOTION.


Use @[Image 4](image_4).


A glossy red-orange chilli sauce pours into the noodles.


It looks visually like molten lava, but remains edible chilli sauce.


FAST POUR
→ ULTRA SLOW MOTION AT IMPACT
→ FAST.


At impact:


WHOOMPH.


The noodles erupt with:
- bubbles
- red droplets
- steam
- chilli oil
- heat distortion


Do not create a new orbit.


NARRATOR:


"We're not adding heat..."


Beat.


"...we're pouring it."


NO SUPER.


==================================================
4.0 - 6.3s
SPICE THROW
==================================================


FOLLOW THE ORIGINAL SOURCE HAND MOVEMENT.


Use @[Image 3](image_3).


Same character.
Black shirt.
Black chef apron.


Begin on a tight shot of his fist gripping:
- chillies
- flakes
- peppercorns
- garlic
- red spice powder


FAST camera movement toward fist.


Then:


sudden slow motion.


Follow source movement outward into the wider composition.


His hand opens and throws the spices toward the cup.


Ingredients travel toward the product.


ULTRA SLOW MOTION:
- chillies spin
- garlic rotates
- flakes hang in air
- red spice cloud trails behind
- tiny embers mix into particles


Everything enters the cup.


Small controlled flame burst on impact.


NARRATOR:


"Chilli."


Impact.


"Spice."


Impact.


"Zero chill."


Tiny comedy beat.


SFX:
whoosh
bass hits
spice impacts
small flame burst


NO SUPER.


==================================================
6.3 - 8.0s
NOODLE LIFT
==================================================


FOLLOW THE EXACT SOURCE NOODLE-LIFT COMPOSITION.


Use @[Image 2](image_2).


Chopsticks lift:
- glossy
- red-orange
- springy
- heavily seasoned noodles


Extreme heat is shown through:
- steam
- heat distortion
- chilli flakes
- shimmering background
- tiny glowing embers


Do NOT make the noodles literally burn.


SPEED:


quick lift
→ slow-motion hang
→ return near source speed.


NARRATOR:


"That's not steam..."


Tiny pause.


"...that's a warning."


NO SUPER.


==================================================
8.0 - 9.5s
BITE → FIRE EYES
==================================================


FOLLOW THE EXACT SOURCE CAMERA PUSH AND EATING MOTION.






Do not create a new pose.


8.0 - 8.6s:
camera pushes dynamically toward his face along the source path.


8.6 - 8.95s:
HE ACTUALLY BITES / SLURPS THE NOODLES.


Do not cut before contact.


SLURP.


8.95 - 9.15s:


everything almost goes silent.


THUMP.


He pauses.


9.15 - 9.4s:


CLICK.


His eyes suddenly ignite.


FWOOM.


Do not alter the actual face.


The real pupils gain:
- orange-red glowing cores
- small flame effect
- sparks
- reflected orange light


Kitchen lighting instantly shifts:
amber
→ orange
→ red.


NARRATOR:


"One bite..."


tiny beat.


"...and it bites back."


NO SUPER.


At 9.5s:
HARD CUT into the final scene.


==================================================
9.5 - 13.0s
SHORT FINAL SCENE
PRODUCT HERO → FIRE → HOUSE BURNS
==================================================


Follow the original final reference-video movement very closely.


Use @[Image 5](image_5).


The choreography remains:
- cup pushes toward camera
- cup dominates foreground
- man stays behind it
- head reacts
- free hand comes upward / outward


==================================================
9.5 - 10.1s
PRODUCT HERO
==================================================


The man pushes Pop Mie Pedas directly toward lens.


The cup becomes large in foreground.


Keep branding readable.


For a brief moment, everything looks like a normal product commercial.


NARRATOR:


"Pop Mie Pedas."


Tiny smoke wisp rises from his mouth.


PFFT.


His eyes still glow faintly.


NO SUPER.


==================================================
10.1 - 10.6s
SOMETHING IS WRONG
==================================================


Another smoke puff.


Tiny spark.


MAN:


"Wait..."


Small flame appears.


PFFT!


==================================================
10.6 - 11.3s
FULL FIRE
==================================================


WHOOM!!!


The flame instantly becomes a huge flamethrower.


No long intermediate sequence.


The fire follows his source head position.


His free hand follows the reference motion and tries to stop it.


MAN:


"Whoa!"


That is his FINAL spoken line.


No more character dialogue.


The cup stays extended toward camera.


==================================================
11.3 - 12.2s
HOUSE CATCHES FIRE
==================================================


The SAME room rapidly catches fire.


Do not begin fully burned.


In quick succession:
- curtain / wall edge ignites
- nearby furniture catches
- flames spread in background
- sparks and embers appear
- orange firelight floods the room


The flamethrower continues.


The free hand continues trying to stop it.


The cup remains:
- clean
- bright
- readable
- dominant foreground hero


NARRATOR:


"Seriously spicy."


Tiny beat.


"Seriously good."


NO SUPER.


==================================================
12.2 - 13.0s
FINAL BRAND PAYOFF
==================================================


The background is now heavily on fire.


Keep movement active:
- fire flowing
- sparks
- smoke
- free hand panicking
- cup held steady toward camera


NARRATOR:


"Can you handle the heat?"


Then:


"Indomie Pop Mie Pedas."


NOW AND ONLY NOW show the final supers.


==================================================
FINAL SUPER ONLY
==================================================


Large premium hero typography:


"POP MIE PEDAS"


Below it, smaller:


"CAN YOU HANDLE THE HEAT?"


This is the ONLY on-screen advertising text in the entire video.


Style:
- premium bold typography
- subtle orange-red glow
- slight heat distortion
- small ember particles
- no large screen shake
- clean product-ad finish


Do not cover the actual cup.


Keep the cup readable beneath / beside the typography.


Final huge flame pulse:


WHOOM!


HARD CUT TO BLACK.


Do not fade.
Do not extinguish fire.
Do not show aftermath.
