### **Dynamic Prompt Template: Scandinavian Minimalist Animated Poster**
#### **Part 1: Core Concept & Scene Description**
**(Objective: Establish the overall theme, subject, and high-level vision.)**
A `[Duration in seconds]`-second, seamlessly looping animated poster for `[Subject: e.g., a conceptual art exhibition, a sustainable furniture brand, a winter solstice music festival, a typography conference]`. The entire scene is a flat, 2D vector composition that comes to life with subtle, deliberate motion graphics. The mood is calm, sophisticated, and introspective, embodying the principles of Scandinavian design: simplicity, functionality, and a deep connection to nature. The animation should feel like a living, breathing piece of graphic design.
#### **Part 2: Visual & Aesthetic Style Directives**
**(Objective: Define the specific visual language of the poster.)**
* **Aesthetic:** Scandinavian Minimalism, Modernist, with subtle Japandi influences. Emphasize clean lines, negative space, and a strong grid-based layout. The overall feel is uncluttered, balanced, and intentional.
* **Color Palette:** A muted and sophisticated palette dominated by `[Primary Color: e.g., off-white, light beige, cool grey]` and `[Secondary Color: e.g., slate grey, dusty blue, moss green]`, with a single, carefully chosen `[Accent Color: e.g., burnt orange, terracotta, deep teal]` used sparingly for emphasis. The background is a flat, solid `[Background Color]` with a very subtle, almost imperceptible digital paper or canvas texture, giving it a tactile quality.
* **Key Visual Elements:**
* **Focal Point:** The central focus is `[Main Element: e.g., a single, stylized geometric shape like an arc or a series of overlapping circles; an abstract, organic form representing a mountain range or a leaf; a typographic character treated as an art form]`. This element represents `[Core Concept: e.g., ‘growth’, ‘connection’, ‘silence’, ‘structure’]`.
* **Supporting Elements:** Complementing the focal point are minimal supporting elements, such as `[Supporting Element 1: e.g., three thin, parallel vertical lines]`, `[Supporting Element 2: e.g., a small, offset circle representing the sun or moon]`, and `[Supporting Element 3: e.g., a dashed path or subtle wave pattern]`. These elements should not compete for attention but rather create balance and guide the viewer’s eye.
* **Typography:**
* **Primary Text:** The main title, `[Main Text: e.g., ‘Lagom’, ‘Nordic Light’, ‘Form & Function’]`, is rendered in a clean, geometric, sans-serif typeface similar to `[Font Style Example: e.g., Futura, Helvetica Neue, Brandon Grotesque]`. The text is treated as a core design element, perfectly aligned and integrated into the composition.
* **Secondary Text:** Any additional information, like `[Secondary Text: e.g., ‘Exhibition Opening Soon’, ‘Date & Location’, ‘A Film by…’]`, is much smaller, using a light or regular weight of the same typeface, positioned to provide context without adding clutter.
#### **Part 3: Animation & Motion Directives**
**(Objective: Detail the timing, sequence, and style of movement. This is crucial for Veo.)**
* **Animation Style:** Slow, smooth, and deliberate. The motion should be subtle and calming, like a gentle breeze or a slow dawn. Avoid any fast, jerky, or jarring movements. The animation should feel organic, as if the elements are gracefully revealing themselves. Think high-end motion graphics or stop-motion papercraft animation.
* **Sequence of Motion (Timeline):**
1. **(0-2 seconds):** The scene begins with the textured background. The `[Main Element]` gently and slowly animates into view. It could `[Animation for Main Element: e.g., wipe in from the left, fade in with a soft glow, be drawn by an invisible hand]`.
2. **(2-4 seconds):** The `[Supporting Element 1]` and `[Supporting Element 2]` appear sequentially, not simultaneously. Use simple animations like a `[Animation for Supporting Elements: e.g., a soft ‘pop’ into existence, a slide from off-screen, a fade-in]`.
3. **(4-6 seconds):** The `[Main Text]` reveals itself. This could be a `[Animation for Main Text: e.g., a letter-by-letter fade-in, a typewriter effect, a smooth upward slide from behind the main element]`.
4. **(6-8 seconds):** The `[Secondary Text]` fades in gently.
5. **(8-10 seconds):** The entire composition holds for a moment, allowing the viewer to absorb the design. A very subtle “breathing” effect can be applied, where elements scale up and down by 1-2% imperceptibly.
6. **(10 seconds onwards):** The animation gracefully reverses or fades out to seamlessly loop back to the beginning.
#### **Part 4: Technical & Cinematic Specifications**
**(Objective: Provide the AI with technical constraints for a professional result.)**
* **Camera:** Static, locked-off shot. No pans, tilts, or zooms. The perspective is a direct, flat-on view as if looking at a poster on a wall.
* **Lighting:** Soft, even, diffuse global lighting. Imagine a bright, overcast day. This will create very subtle, long, soft-edged shadows if any elements overlap, adding a slight sense of depth to the 2D plane.
* **Format:**
* **Resolution:** 4K UHD (3840×2160)
* **Aspect Ratio:** Vertical `9:16` (ideal for social media stories).
* **Frame Rate:** Cinematic `24fps`.
* **Fidelity:** Photorealistic rendering of the vector elements and textures. Crisp, clean edges.
#### **Part 5: Negative Prompts (What to Avoid)**
**(Objective: Refine the output by explicitly excluding unwanted features.)**
`no 3D objects, no realistic photo imagery, no harsh gradients, no neon colors, no cluttered compositions, no fast or erratic movements, no lens flares, no decorative or serif fonts, no hand-held camera shake.`

### **Example Prompt in Practice**
Here is a concrete example using the dynamic template above.
**Subject:** An animated poster for a winter music festival called “ECHOES.”
—
**(Part 1: Core Concept & Scene Description)**
A 12-second, seamlessly looping animated poster for the ‘ECHOES’ winter solstice music festival. The entire scene is a flat, 2D vector composition that comes to life with subtle, deliberate motion graphics. The mood is calm, sophisticated, and introspective, embodying the principles of Scandinavian design: simplicity, functionality, and a deep connection to nature. The animation should feel like a living, breathing piece of graphic design.
**(Part 2: Visual & Aesthetic Style Directives)**
* **Aesthetic:** Scandinavian Minimalism, Modernist, with subtle Japandi influences. Emphasize clean lines, negative space, and a strong grid-based layout. The overall feel is uncluttered, balanced, and intentional.
* **Color Palette:** A muted and sophisticated palette dominated by a cool grey (#D3D4D9) and slate blue (#3E4C59), with a single, carefully chosen accent of soft gold (#B48E4F) used sparingly for emphasis. The background is a flat, deep charcoal color (#2E3440) with a very subtle, almost imperceptible digital paper texture.
* **Key Visual Elements:**
* **Focal Point:** The central focus is a series of three expanding, concentric arcs, representing sound waves or echoes. This element represents the core concept of ‘sound’ and ‘reverberation’.
* **Supporting Elements:** Complementing the focal point are minimal supporting elements, such as a small, solid gold circle representing a low winter sun, and a single, thin horizontal line at the bottom of the frame that acts as a ground plane.
* **Typography:**
* **Primary Text:** The main title, ‘ECHOES’, is rendered in a clean, geometric, sans-serif typeface similar to Helvetica Neue (Bold). The text is treated as a core design element, perfectly aligned and integrated into the composition.
* **Secondary Text:** The additional information, ‘Winter Solstice Music | Dec 21 | Bergen’, is much smaller, using a light weight of the same typeface, positioned discreetly below the horizontal line.
**(Part 3: Animation & Motion Directives)**
* **Animation Style:** Slow, smooth, and deliberate. The motion should be subtle and calming. Think high-end motion graphics.
* **Sequence of Motion (Timeline):**
1. **(0-2 seconds):** The scene begins with the textured charcoal background. The central arc animates into view, being drawn by an invisible hand in a smooth, clockwise motion.
2. **(2-4 seconds):** The second and third arcs expand outwards from the first one sequentially, creating a soft ripple effect. The small gold circle fades in softly in the top right corner.
3. **(4-6 seconds):** The main text ‘ECHOES’ reveals itself with a slow, character-by-character fade-in.
4. **(6-8 seconds):** The secondary text and the horizontal line at the bottom fade in gently together.
5. **(8-10 seconds):** The entire composition holds for a moment. The concentric arcs subtly pulse, expanding and contracting by about 2%, giving a ‘breathing’ effect.
6. **(10-12 seconds):** The entire animation gracefully reverses, with the text fading out and the arcs contracting back to the center, leading to a seamless loop.
**(Part 4: Technical & Cinematic Specifications)**
* **Camera:** Static, locked-off shot. No pans, tilts, or zooms. The perspective is a direct, flat-on view.
* **Lighting:** Soft, even, diffuse global lighting.
* **Format:** 4K UHD (3840×2160), Vertical 9:16, Cinematic 24fps, Photorealistic rendering of vector elements, crisp edges.
**(Part 5: Negative Prompts)**
`no 3D objects, no realistic photo imagery, no harsh gradients, no neon colors, no cluttered compositions, no fast or erratic movements, no lens flares, no decorative or serif fonts, no hand-held camera shake.`
