A beautiful medium-wide cinematic shot of @Mat and @Nilo walking happily together along the same narrow pebble-stone pathway, directly continuing the final moment of Scene 2. Both characters are fully visible, walking naturally side by side in the same direction as at the end of Scene 2. @Mat is on the left, holding the shiny red helium balloon securely by its thin white string in his LEFT hand, exactly as in Scene 2. His fingers are firmly closed around the string. The balloon floats gently above him and has NOT escaped yet. @Nilo is walking beside Mat on the right, looking happily toward the red balloon. Both characters have relaxed, cheerful expressions. There is no strong wind yet. PARK ENVIRONMENT — MATCH THE APPROVED SCENE 2 IMAGE: A beautiful, spacious, sunlit green park with a narrow, gently winding pebble-stone pathway made of small rounded grey, beige, and light brown stones. Lush, vibrant green grass stretches across both sides of the pathway, forming gently rolling grassy hills. Several large, mature trees with full, softly rounded green canopies stand naturally along BOTH sides of the pathway, at varying distances from the camera. Some trees are closer and clearly visible behind Mat and Nilo, while others extend naturally into the distance. The trees have thick, leafy crowns and realistic soft shadows, creating a beautiful, welcoming park atmosphere. A clear light-blue sky with a few delicate white clouds stretches above. Warm golden morning sunlight comes from the right side, illuminating the grass, trees, pathway, and characters. Maintain the exact same tree density, approximate tree sizes and positions, pathway width and texture, lighting, colors, and background composition as the approved Scene 2 image. Do not create an empty field, dense forest, bushes, hedges, high curbs, buildings, fences, or different scenery. CHARACTER CONSISTENCY: Preserve the exact appearances, clothing, facial features, colors, and proportions of Mat and Nilo from the previous scenes and reference video. Nilo must have exactly TWO long floppy ears with blue tips. CAMERA AND CONTINUITY: Use a medium-wide camera angle closely matching the ending of Scene 2, keeping both characters visible. Maintain the same walking direction and natural spacing between them. This image represents the START of Scene 3, just BEFORE the sudden gust of wind. The balloon is still securely held by Mat. No open hands, no flying balloon, no surprised expressions, and no close-up of the hand yet. The image must look like the very next frame of the SAME continuous 3D animated cartoon, not a new scene or location.
