**(Start of Prompt)**
**1. Core Command & Master Directive:**
`Generate an ultra-realistic, cinematic, high-fidelity video sequence for visual storytelling. Render in 8K resolution, 24fps, with an epic and divine atmosphere. The final output should resemble a scene from a high-budget mythological fantasy film, directed with the visual grandeur of [e.g., Sanjay Leela Bhansali, S.S. Rajamouli] and the textural realism of [e.g., Denis Villeneuve].`
**2. Scene Concept & Narrative Arc:**
* **Logline:** `[A one-sentence summary of the scene’s story. e.g., Lord Shiva, in deep meditation atop Mount Kailash, slowly opens his third eye, unleashing a wave of cosmic energy that restores balance to the heavens.]`
* **Emotional Tone:** `[Describe the primary feeling of the scene. e.g., Serene transitioning to awe-inspiring power, profoundly meditative, intensely wrathful, somber and contemplative, majestically benevolent.]`
* **Pacing:** `[Define the speed and rhythm of the scene. e.g., Slow, deliberate, and hypnotic build-up; fast-paced and chaotic action sequence; gracefully flowing and ethereal.]`
**3. Primary Subject: Lord Shiva**
* **Persona/Avatar:** `[Specify which aspect of Shiva is being depicted. e.g., Bholenath the Innocent, Nataraja the Cosmic Dancer, Rudra the Furious, Mahayogi the Great Ascetic, Ardhanarishvara the Androgynous.]`
* **Physical Appearance & Features:** `[Detail his physique, skin tone, and expression. e.g., Muscular yet ascetic build, ash-smeared skin with a divine blue throat (Neelkanth), matted dreadlocks (jatas) piled high, serene yet powerful facial expression, ancient and wise eyes.]`
* **Attire & Iconography:** `[Describe his clothing and key symbols. e.g., Clad in simple tiger skin, the crescent moon (Chandra) glowing in his hair, the sacred serpent Vasuki coiled around his neck, wearing Rudraksha beads, holding his divine Trident (Trishula) and drum (Damaru).]`
* **Key Action/Pose:** `[Describe his central action or posture. e.g., Seated in the Padmasana (lotus position) for meditation, performing the Tandava dance with precise and powerful movements, calmly raising his hand in the Abhaya mudra (blessing of fearlessness).]`
**4. Setting & Environment:**
* **Location:** `[Be specific about the environment. e.g., The snow-covered, jagged peak of Mount Kailash; a cosmic battlefield littered with celestial debris; a dense, ancient forest at twilight; a celestial court filled with demigods.]`
* **Atmosphere & Weather:** `[Describe the environmental conditions. e.g., Wisps of ethereal mist, a raging cosmic blizzard with swirling snowflakes, an ominous pre-storm stillness, golden hour light filtering through clouds, a star-filled nebula in the background sky.]`
* **Sensory Details:** `[Add details that appeal to senses beyond sight. e.g., The faint, deep hum of a cosmic mantra (AUM), the sound of a howling wind, the crackle of a sacred fire, the air thick with the scent of incense and melting snow.]`
**5. Cinematography & Camera Work:**
* **Opening Shot:** `[Describe the first thing the viewer sees. e.g., Extreme long shot of Mount Kailash, establishing the scale, slowly pushing in.]`
* **Camera Movement:** `[Detail how the camera moves throughout the scene. e.g., A slow, dramatic orbital crane shot that circles Lord Shiva; a powerful dolly-in towards his face, focusing on his third eye; handheld, shaky-cam effect during a chaotic battle; a graceful, floating camera movement to convey divinity.]`
* **Shot Composition & Framing:** `[Use filmmaking terms to guide the AI. e.g., Low-angle shots to emphasize power and divinity, extreme close-ups on the Trishula’s prongs or the serpent’s eyes, symmetrical framing for balance and meditation, rule of thirds for dynamic compositions.]`
* **Lens & Focus:** `[Specify the lens style and depth of field. e.g., Shot on an anamorphic lens for cinematic widescreen with subtle lens flares; shallow depth of field to isolate Shiva from the background, creating beautiful bokeh; deep focus to show the vastness of the environment.]`
**6. Lighting & Color Palette:**
* **Lighting Style:** `[Describe the lighting setup. e.g., Dramatic chiaroscuro with deep shadows and strong highlights; ethereal, soft, high-key lighting for a serene mood; motivated lighting from the crescent moon, a sacred fire, or the glow of his third eye.]`
* **Primary Colors:** `[Define the dominant colors of the scene. e.g., Deep indigos and cosmic purples for a celestial feel; earthy tones of ochre, brown, and grey for a grounded, ascetic mood; fiery oranges, reds, and golds for a scene of destruction or creation.]`
* **Color Grading:** `[Describe the final color treatment. e.g., Cool, desaturated tones with a hint of blue; warm, rich, and saturated like a classical painting; high-contrast, bleach bypass look for grit and intensity.]`
**7. VFX & Atmospheric Effects:**
* **Particle Effects:** `[Describe small, dynamic elements. e.g., Swirling ash and embers from a divine fire, shimmering cosmic dust, slowly falling, glowing snowflakes, subtle heat distortion in the air.]`
* **Energy & Magical Effects:** `[Detail any supernatural phenomena. e.g., A pulsating golden aura around Shiva, crackling blue energy arcing from his Trishula, the Ganga river flowing as a beam of light from his dreadlocks, a visible shockwave of energy expanding outwards.]`
* **Environmental Enhancements:** `[Add effects that enhance the setting. e.g., Volumetric clouds rolling over the mountains, celestial bodies and nebulae moving subtly in the sky (time-lapse effect), the ground cracking under the force of his dance.]`

### **Example Prompt: “Shiva’s Meditative Awakening”**
This example uses the template above to create a specific, detailed prompt ready for Google Veo.
**(Start of Example Prompt)**
**1. Core Command & Master Directive:**
Generate an ultra-realistic, cinematic, high-fidelity video sequence for visual storytelling. Render in 8K resolution, 24fps, with an epic and divine atmosphere. The final output should resemble a scene from a high-budget mythological fantasy film, directed with the visual grandeur of S.S. Rajamouli and the textural realism of Denis Villeneuve.
**2. Scene Concept & Narrative Arc:**
* **Logline:** Atop the desolate peak of Mount Kailash, Lord Shiva awakens from a millennia-long meditation, his opening eyes calming a raging cosmic storm and bathing the universe in serene light.
* **Emotional Tone:** Begins as ominous and tempestuous, transitioning to profoundly serene, majestic, and awe-inspiring.
* **Pacing:** Very slow and deliberate, focusing on micro-movements and the gradual shift in the atmosphere. Hypnotic and meditative.
**3. Primary Subject: Lord Shiva**
* **Persona/Avatar:** Mahayogi, the Great Ascetic, in his role as the supreme consciousness.
* **Physical Appearance & Features:** He possesses a powerful, lean, ascetic physique. His skin is covered in a fine layer of sacred ash (vibhuti), giving it a pale, ethereal quality. His throat is a distinct, divine blue (Neelkanth). His face is ancient, timeless, and completely tranquil, with closed eyes. His long, matted dreadlocks are piled high, looking heavy with the snow and ice of ages.
* **Attire & Iconography:** He wears a simple, weathered tiger skin around his waist. A large, dormant serpent, Vasuki, is coiled loosely around his neck, occasionally flickering its tongue. A silver crescent moon on his head emits a soft, cold light. His Trishula is embedded in the rock beside him, humming with latent power.
* **Key Action/Pose:** He is seated in a perfect, unwavering Padmasana (lotus position). The scene’s main action is the incredibly slow opening of his two eyes, followed by a faint, internal glow appearing at the location of his third eye.
**4. Setting & Environment:**
* **Location:** The absolute summit of a hyper-realistic Mount Kailash. Jagged, black, obsidian-like rocks jut through impossibly deep snow. The scale is immense, with the world visible below the cloud line.
* **Atmosphere & Weather:** The scene opens in a cosmic blizzard. Vicious winds whip snow and ice crystals horizontally across the screen. The sky is a dark, churning vortex of purple and grey storm clouds, lit by distant, silent flashes of lightning.
* **Sensory Details:** The only sound is the deep, deafening howl of the wind and the low, vibrational hum of cosmic energy. The air is visibly freezing.
**5. Cinematography & Camera Work:**
* **Opening Shot:** An extreme long shot of the storm-battered mountain peak, with Shiva as a tiny, unmoving silhouette against the chaotic sky.
* **Camera Movement:** A very slow, floating dolly-in that takes the entire duration of the clip to move from the wide shot to an extreme close-up of Shiva’s face. As his eyes open, the camera executes a subtle, almost imperceptible push-in on his third eye.
* **Shot Composition & Framing:** The initial shots are wide to emphasize his solitude and the power of nature. The final shot is a tight, symmetrical frame on his face, placing his third eye at the exact center.
* **Lens & Focus:** Shot on a prime lens with a deep focus initially to capture the epic landscape. As the camera moves in, the focus racks to create a shallow depth of field, blurring the storm-ridden background and making his face the sole point of interest.
**6. Lighting & Color Palette:**
* **Lighting Style:** Initially, the scene is lit with cold, harsh, ambient light from the stormy sky, creating stark shadows on the snow. As his eyes open, a warm, golden light begins to emanate from within him, becoming the new key light that softly illuminates his features and pushes back the shadows.
* **Primary Colors:** The scene starts with a monochromatic palette of whites, greys, and deep storm-blues. This transitions dramatically to include a divine, warm gold and soft saffron tones as he awakens.
* **Color Grading:** A cool, high-contrast grading for the storm, which smoothly cross-fades into a warm, low-contrast, ethereal glow, giving the final shot a dreamlike quality.
**7. VFX & Atmospheric Effects:**
* **Particle Effects:** Hyper-realistic, swirling snow and ice particles that react to the wind. As he awakens, these particles slow down, halt in mid-air, and then gently sublimate into shimmering motes of light.
* **Energy & Magical Effects:** When his eyes open, a soft, lens-flare-like wave of golden light expands from him in a perfect circle, visibly calming the storm clouds and pushing them back. The Trishula beside him begins to glow with a gentle, white light. The crescent moon on his head brightens significantly.
* **Environmental Enhancements:** The violent, shaking camera movement caused by the wind becomes perfectly still and locked as he awakens. The roaring wind dies down to an absolute, reverent silence, replaced by the faint, celestial echo of an ‘AUM’ mantra.
