The Dragon Under Times Square

Create a cinematic 12-second vertical fantasy short set beneath Times Square at midnight. A colossal emerald dragon sleeps under the pavement, its glowing scales visible through cracks between neon billboards. The camera begins with a low-angle macro shot of a trembling subway token, then performs a fast dolly backward as the street splits open and the dragon slowly raises one luminous eye. Use a 24mm lens, dramatic handheld motion, volumetric blue steam, magenta and gold neon reflections, realistic wet asphalt, detailed scales, flying sparks, and a premium Hollywood fantasy look. End with a sharp upward tilt as the dragon’s wing blocks the skyscrapers. Designed for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels.
