### **Optimized Dynamic AI Prompt for Neon Samurai Battle (VEO 3 Style)**
This prompt is structured as a modular template. You can mix and match elements from each category to create countless unique variations. The key to its success is the layering of details, moving from the broad concept to the granular specifics of light, motion, and cinematography. The “VEO 3” style is interpreted here as **V**olumetric, **E**thereal, and **O**rnate, with version 3 implying the highest level of detail and realism.

#### **The Dynamic Prompt Structure**
**Instructions for Use:** Choose one or more options from each category below. Combine them into a single paragraph for the final prompt. The more specific you are, the more control you will have over the final image.
**[1. Core Concept & Scene]**
* **Purpose:** Establishes the fundamental subject, action, and mood.
* **Options:**
* A climactic duel between two cybernetically enhanced samurai.
* A lone cyber-ronin ambushed by multiple robotic ninja assassins.
* A tense standoff, blades drawn but not yet clashing, energy crackling in the air.
* A high-speed chase through a neon-drenched market, with one samurai in pursuit of another.
* A samurai deflecting a barrage of energy projectiles in a defensive, whirlwind-like motion.
**[2. Environment & Atmosphere]**
* **Purpose:** Sets the stage and defines the atmospheric conditions which are crucial for light and fog effects.
* **Options:**
* **Setting:** A rain-slicked, narrow alleyway in Neo-Kyoto; a forgotten rooftop shrine overlooking a sprawling megapolis; the sterile, server-lined corridors of a corporate headquarters; a traditional Japanese garden corrupted with holographic koi and chrome Torii gates.
* **Atmosphere:** Dense, low-hanging volumetric fog swirling around their ankles; thick, ethereal mist pierced by shafts of neon light; a torrential downpour creating millions of reflective surfaces; a fine, misty drizzle that catches and diffuses the light.
* **Background Details:** Towering skyscrapers with massive holographic geisha advertisements; glowing kanji symbols projected onto wet asphalt; flickering paper lanterns replaced with pulsing LED globes; exposed data cables and pipes leaking steam.
**[3. Character Details & Stance]**
* **Purpose:** Defines the appearance and posture of the subjects, influencing how light and shadow play across their forms.
* **Options (for one or both samurai):**
* **Armor Style:** Sleek, form-fitting carbon fiber armor with glowing blue circuit patterns; heavy, ornate chrome samurai armor with demonic Oni mask (men-yoroi) and glowing red eyes; a fusion of a traditional tattered kimono with high-tech cybernetic limbs and reinforced plating.
* **Weapon:** A razor-sharp plasma katana crackling with unstable energy; a monomolecular vibro-blade leaving a shimmering trail in the air; a heavy, superheated thermal nodachi glowing cherry-red; paired energy wakizashi blades.
* **Stance/Action:** A low, aggressive Jōdan-no-kamae (high guard); a poised, defensive Chūdan-no-kamae (middle guard); mid-lunge in a high-speed Iaijutsu draw; spinning to deflect an attack, their coat swirling around them.
**[4. CRITICAL: Light & Particle FX]**
* **Purpose:** This is the core of the prompt, focusing entirely on visual effects. Be extremely descriptive.
* **Options:**
* **Primary Light Sources:** The intense, emissive glow from the energy blades casting harsh, colored light on the characters’ faces and armor; the ambient bleed from towering neon signs in cyan, magenta, and acid green; piercing white headlights from a passing spinner vehicle.
* **Light Interaction:** Cinematic god rays and light shafts cutting through the dense fog; dramatic rim lighting outlining the samurai’s silhouettes against the dark background; brilliant specular highlights glistening on wet armor and puddles; subtle lens flare and anamorphic streaks from bright light sources.
* **Particle Effects:** A violent explosion of white-hot cybernetic sparks at the point where blades clash; glowing digital embers drifting through the air like fireflies; individual raindrops frozen in time by a high-shutter speed effect, each catching a different colored reflection; swirling motes of dust and data-fragments caught in light beams.
**[5. CRITICAL: Motion & Kinetic FX]**
* **Purpose:** This section injects the feeling of movement and action into a static image.
* **Options:**
* **Blade Effects:** A visible, shimmering heat haze around the thermal blade; a clean, bright light trail following the arc of a swinging plasma katana; subtle motion blur on the weapon and hands to convey incredible speed.
* **Environmental Motion:** The fog dynamically swirling and parting around the combatants’ feet; rain splashing violently upwards from a heavy footfall; wind whipping through the scene, causing their cyber-kimono or coat to flow dramatically.
* **Energy & Impact:** A visible shockwave of distorted air expanding from the weapon impact; crackling electrical arcs jumping between the blades; holographic shield effect shattering into a million glowing pixels.
**[6. Cinematography & Style]**
* **Purpose:** Dictates the final composition, “camera” work, and rendering quality.
* **Options:**
* **Shot Type:** Dynamic low-angle shot making the samurai appear heroic and imposing; cinematic Dutch angle to create a sense of unease and action; intimate close-up on the clashing blades and intense eyes behind the masks; wide shot showcasing the scale of the environment.
* **Lens & Focus:** Shallow depth of field with the focus locked on the point of impact, blurring the background; telephoto lens compressing the scene, making the background feel closer and more imposing; wide-angle lens distorting the edges for a dynamic feel.
* **Art Style:** Hyper-realistic, photorealistic, 8K, ultra-detailed, sharp focus. VEO 3 Style (Volumetric, Ethereal, Ornate). Cinematic color grading with high contrast, deep blacks, and saturated neon colors. Rendered in Unreal Engine 5, Octane Render.
**[7. Negative Prompts (Optional but Recommended)]**
* **Purpose:** Tells the AI what to avoid.
* **Keywords:** blurry, cartoon, anime, painting, deformed, extra limbs, fused fingers, disfigured, poorly drawn, duplicate, watermark, signature, text, low resolution, noise, grain.

**(Copy and paste this into your AI platform)**
> A cinematic, dynamic low-angle shot of a climactic duel between two cybernetically enhanced samurai on a rain-slicked rooftop shrine overlooking the sprawling, neon-drenched megapolis of Neo-Kyoto. The entire scene is shrouded in dense, low-hanging volumetric fog that swirls dynamically around their feet.
>
> The protagonist, in a sleek carbon fiber armor with glowing cyan circuit patterns, is locked in a high-speed Iaijutsu draw, their plasma katana crackling with blue electrical arcs. Their opponent, encased in heavy, ornate chrome armor with a demonic Oni mask, counters with a superheated thermal nodachi held in a high Jōdan-no-kamae.
>
> The point where the blades clash explodes in a violent, cascading shower of white-hot cybernetic sparks and digital embers. The intense, emissive glow from the blades casts harsh, colored light on their faces and creates dramatic rim lighting that outlines their silhouettes against the dark, rainy sky. Cinematic god rays from distant holographic advertisements pierce through the thick fog, illuminating individual raindrops frozen in motion. The entire image is defined by its light and motion FX, with subtle motion blur on the weapons, brilliant specular highlights on the wet armor, and a visible shockwave of distorted air expanding from the impact.
