The Mermaid Who Hates Water

Create a surreal fantasy short for Instagram Reels and TikTok about a glamorous mermaid living in a cramped Los Angeles apartment who is terrified of water. Open on a low 35mm tracking shot across a dry living room filled with seashell lamps, floating jellyfish, and salt-crystal furniture. She tiptoes past a dripping kitchen sink while moonlight pours through blinds, creating silver stripes across her iridescent tail. Switch to a 50mm handheld close-up as one faucet drop falls in slow motion; the room erupts into a tiny ocean with luminous fish. High-end fashion-film styling, cool cyan lighting, expressive physical comedy, and a shocked creator reaction at the end.
