Generate a hyper-realistic documentary-style short of a forgotten 1998 MiniDV home video — a 20-year-old Japanese woman waiting at a quiet seaside Kamakura station, watching the sea, and waving goodbye before boarding — as a 15s 16:9 24fps clip wearing full 90s Sony MiniDV camcorder artifacts: violent handheld shake, off-frame compositions, auto-focus hunting between the train and her face, exposure riding on the daylight, faded color, soft contrast, slight motion blur, MiniDV compression, no…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Direct Imperfect Memory Farewell — 1998 MiniDV Seaside Station

Use this Skill when the user wants a **memory-style film shot like a forgotten old camcorder tape**: a quiet goodbye at a seaside station in autumn 1998, seen through the imperfect, unsteady eyes of a 90s MiniDV home video.

Core principle: **imperfection is the medium — violent handheld shake, missed focus, drifting exposure and compression are the texture; never let it look stabilized, modern or well-composed.**

The prompt follows the H3 timecoded structure (core concept → five-segment screen description with positive and negative per beat → hard negative list). T2VA only — pure text, no reference image.

---

## 1. Trigger

Use this Skill when the user's request matches any of:

- A "found footage / old camcorder tape" memory film
- A nostalgic farewell at a train station (or similar quiet goodbye)
- "Make it look like a real family MiniDV video from the 90s"
- A memory / flashback scene that needs an authentic period camcorder texture

Do **not** use this Skill when:

- The user wants a smooth, cinematic, stabilized shot — this must look unsteady and handheld

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gordonlu/awesome-minimax-h3-skills/direct-imperfect-memory-farewell@sha256:79ab1ffebb16f8ce

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260821.8fad868, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
