### **1. The Dynamic Prompt Template Structure**
This is the foundational structure. The logic flows from the overall scene composition down to the finest details of the energy and particles.
**(Master Prompt)**
`VFX concept art, [SCENE_TYPE] of an intricate, glowing energy script from the school of Ancient Magic. A powerful [PRIMARY_ACTION] of [CORE_SUBJECT] forms a [ENERGY_FORM], rendered in a [VISUAL_STYLE] style. The energy itself possesses a [ENERGY_QUALITIES] quality, glowing with a [ENERGY_COLOR_PALETTE]. Surrounding the primary effect are subtle [PARTICLE_EFFECTS]. The scene is set against a [BACKGROUND_SETTING], dramatically lit by [CAMERA_AND_LIGHTING] to emphasize the ethereal and symbolic nature of the light FX.`
**(Recommended Negative Prompts)**
`- AVOID: [2D, flat, cartoon, anime, text, letters, watermarks, signature, UI, modern, sci-fi, futuristic technology, blurry, out of focus, poorly rendered, human figures (unless specified), face].`
