AI handshake scene: plan contact between two fictional adults
An original greeting exercise: position two fictional adults, separate reach, contact and release, and inspect the hands throughout.
In this article
Define two fictional participants
Invent two adult workshop hosts: one in a teal sleeve on the left and one in an ochre sleeve on the right. Give them a simple greeting, with no implied real meeting or endorsement.
Make a position card for each person: side of frame, sleeve color and hand used. Keep these notes beside the storyboard so the greeting does not silently swap participants.
Place hands and camera before the greeting
Use a waist-up side view with both forearms visible. Leave clear space between the adults. Avoid a desk or bag covering the point where their hands will meet.
Draw the hands in their starting positions, then mark one contact point between them. Check that each arm can reach that point without crossing the other person’s torso or disappearing behind a sleeve.
Split reach, contact and release
Draw three panels for the same greeting. First the right hands approach, then they meet briefly, then they separate. Keep the camera fixed so the interaction remains easy to compare.
Write the action in order and remove extra waves, turns or steps. Treat these panels as a planning sequence; they are not proof that a model will produce correct contact.
Two fictional adult hosts face each other, teal sleeve on the left and ochre sleeve on the right. Their right hands reach toward the center, meet for one brief handshake, then separate. Fixed waist-up side view; both forearms remain visible.
Track hands, sleeves and positions
Mark whose thumb is visible in the contact panel and where each wrist joins its sleeve. Keep the left participant on the left through the release.
For any later tool attempt, save the prompt and settings with a reach/contact/release checklist. Record merged fingers, disappearing wrists or a sleeve changing color as distinct defects rather than one general quality score.
Inspect the whole greeting
Watch normal playback to judge timing, then inspect frames around contact. Check whether both hands approach the same point and separate into plausible open space.
Compare a brief contact version with a reach-and-release version that stops before contact. Keep the camera and characters fixed. Note whether either version communicates a greeting more clearly; do not assume a longer handshake is better.
Treat identity and interaction as separate checks
Use two review columns: participant continuity and hand interaction. Stable clothing does not prove correct fingers, and a readable handshake does not prove identity preservation.
This original worksheet contains no generated demonstration or verified Pumio handshake recipe. Image-to-video is not currently available on Pumio; completing the brief does not validate a live interaction feature.
A little more detail
Does this prompt guarantee correct fingers and contact?
No. Inspect the approach, contact and release in any actual output.
Does the scene demonstrate a real meeting or endorsement?
No. Both adults are fictional and the greeting is staged in the storyboard.
Is this also a pet handshake recipe?
No. The exercise specifies two fictional adults and establishes no animal or other-species capability.
