#### **[1. CORE CONCEPT & SCENE]**
**Purpose:** This section establishes the primary subject and the main action. It’s the “who, what, where” of your scene.
**(Start your prompt here)**
`A highly detailed, photorealistic VFX shot of a [SUBJECT: e.g., single cryosleep chamber, row of cryo-pods, massive cryo-bay] inside the interior of a [LOCATION_CONTEXT: e.g., colonization starship, orbital research station, derelict vessel, advanced medical bay]. The primary action is the [ACTION: e.g., activation sequence initiating, reanimation process beginning, emergency wake-up protocol]. The pod’s occupant, a [OCCUPANT_TYPE: e.g., human colonist, astronaut, bio-engineered soldier], is just becoming visible through the canopy.`
—
#### **[2. AESTHETIC & THEMATIC DIRECTION]**
**Purpose:** This is the art direction. It tells the AI *how* to style the scene, from the overall feeling to the specific materials and colors.
**(Append this to your prompt)**
`The overall aesthetic is [AESTHETIC_THEME: e.g., sleek utopian minimalism, grounded NASA-punk utilitarianism, gritty dystopian industrial, ancient biomechanical horror]. The cryo-chamber itself is constructed from a [MATERIAL_PALETTE: e.g., polished white polymer and brushed titanium, weathered carbon fiber and exposed wiring, cold-rolled steel with warning decals, seamless bio-luminescent alloy]. The dominant color palette is a mix of [COLOR_PALETTE: e.g., clinical blues and sterile whites, deep shadows and amber emergency lighting, sickly greens and corroded metal tones, ethereal cyans and obsidian black].`
**Example Keywords for each placeholder:**
* **[AESTHETIC_THEME]:** `Sleek Utopian`, `Grounded Utilitarian`, `Gritty Dystopian`, `Corporate Clean-Tech`, `Alien Biomechanical`, `Retro-Futuristic Cassette Futurism`.
* **[MATERIAL_PALETTE]:** `Scratch-resistant polycarbonate`, `forged carbon fiber`, `anodized aluminum`, `medical-grade stainless steel`, `glowing translucent resin`, `pitted and rusted iron`.
* **[COLOR_PALETTE]:** `Cool cyans and deep blues`, `warm ambers and deep oranges`, `monochromatic greys with a single red accent`, `triadic scheme of blue, yellow, and magenta`.

#### **[3. VFX & LIGHTING SPECIFICS]**
**Purpose:** This is the core of the FX prompt. Describe the specific visual effects, light interactions, and on-screen graphics with rich, evocative language.
**(Append this to your prompt)**
`The activation VFX is central: [ACTIVATION_EFFECT: e.g., thick layers of cryogenic frost rapidly sublimating into swirling vapor, jets of pressurized nitrogen venting from side nozzles, a cascade of shimmering blue energy flowing through visible conduits]. The interior of the pod is illuminated by [INTERNAL_LIGHTING: e.g., soft, gentle LED strips, a single harsh diagnostic light, pulsating organic bioluminescence]. The surrounding room is lit by [EXTERNAL_LIGHTING: e.g., dramatic volumetric light shafts from a ceiling grate, the ambient glow from nearby control panels, flickering, unreliable fluorescent tubes]. On the pod’s exterior canopy, [UI_ELEMENTS: e.g., a complex holographic HUD flickers to life, displaying vital signs and system status; simple, blocky LED readouts begin to cycle through diagnostics; alien glyphs pulse with an unknown energy]. Add subtle [PARTICLE_EFFECTS: e.g., floating ice crystals catching the light, motes of dust dancing in the air, glowing embers from a nearby electrical short].`
—
#### **[4. COMPOSITION & CINEMATOGRAPHY]**
**Purpose:** This section directs the AI’s “virtual camera,” ensuring the final image is framed in a compelling and intentional way.
**(Append this to your prompt)**
`Cinematic composition, [CAMERA_SHOT: e.g., extreme close-up on the defrosting canopy, medium shot capturing the pod and its immediate surroundings, wide establishing shot of the entire cryo-bay]. The shot is framed with a [LENS_TYPE: e.g., 35mm lens, wide-angle 24mm lens, macro lens for intricate detail, anamorphic lens with characteristic lens flare]. The focus is managed with a [FOCUS_DEPTH: e.g., shallow depth of field, blurring the background to isolate the main pod; deep focus with everything sharp and clear; a dramatic rack focus effect].`
—
#### **[5. QUALITY & RENDER MODIFIERS]**
**Purpose:** These are powerful keywords that suggest a certain level of technical quality and realism, often by referencing industry-standard software and styles. They work well across most platforms.
**(End your prompt here)**
`Rendered in the style of a high-budget sci-fi film. Photorealistic, hyper-detailed, intricate details, 8K resolution. Cinematic lighting, global illumination, ray tracing, physically-based rendering (PBR). Styled as if rendered in Unreal Engine 5 or Octane Render. Sharp focus, professional color grading.`

### **Example Prompt in Practice**
Here is a complete, ready-to-use prompt created by filling in the dynamic template. This example aims for a grounded, hopeful, and slightly tense “start of the journey” feel, reminiscent of films like *Interstellar* or *The Martian*.
**(Copy and paste the text below into an AI image generator)**
A highly detailed, photorealistic VFX shot of a single cryosleep chamber inside the interior of a colonization starship’s cryo-bay. The primary action is the activation sequence initiating. The pod’s occupant, a female astronaut, is just becoming visible through the canopy as the ice clears.
The overall aesthetic is grounded NASA-punk utilitarianism. The cryo-chamber itself is constructed from a mix of medical-grade stainless steel and scuffed, white carbon fiber with functional warning decals. The dominant color palette is a mix of clinical blues from the pod’s interior and the deep shadows of the dormant ship, accented by the soft amber glow of nearby status lights.
The activation VFX is central: thick layers of cryogenic frost rapidly sublimating into swirling vapor that catches the light, revealing the clear polycarbonate canopy beneath. The interior of the pod is illuminated by soft, gentle blue LED strips that trace the occupant’s form. The surrounding room is lit by dramatic volumetric light shafts from a single overhead diagnostic beam. On the pod’s exterior canopy, a minimalist holographic HUD flickers to life, displaying a flatline that jumps to a steady heartbeat rhythm and stabilizing vital signs. Add subtle particle effects of floating ice crystals shimmering in the diagnostic beam.
Cinematic composition, medium shot capturing the pod and its immediate surroundings, with other identical, dormant pods receding into the background. The shot is framed with a 50mm lens, creating a natural, non-distorted perspective. The focus is managed with a shallow depth of field, blurring the background pods to isolate the main, activating chamber.
Rendered in the style of a high-budget sci-fi film. Photorealistic, hyper-detailed, intricate details, 8K resolution. Cinematic lighting, global illumination, ray tracing, physically-based rendering (PBR). Styled as if rendered in Unreal Engine 5. Sharp focus on the water droplets forming on the canopy, professional color grading.
