Prompt Details

Of course. Here is a comprehensive and optimized dynamic AI prompt for generating Soothing Candle Flame Flicker ASMR VFX, designed for Mindfulness, Meditation, and Calm. This prompt is structured as a flexible template that you can adapt for any AI image or video generation platform.

### **Optimized Dynamic AI Prompt Template: The Ultimate Serenity Flame**

This master prompt is designed as a modular template. You will fill in, choose from, or combine the bracketed `[VARIABLE]` sections to create a highly specific and effective prompt for your desired visual.

#### **How to Use This Dynamic Prompt:**

1. **Copy the Core Concept:** This is the foundation of your prompt.
2. **Select & Customize Sections:** For each bracketed section like `[Primary Subject & Action]`, choose one of the provided options or write your own based on the examples. The more specific, the better.
3. **Combine & Refine:** Assemble your chosen parts into a single, cohesive prompt. Use commas to separate concepts and descriptive phrases.
4. **Weighting (Optional but Recommended):** For platforms that support it (like Stable Diffusion or Midjourney with certain techniques), you can add weight to emphasize key terms. For example: `(soothing:1.3)`, `(extreme close-up:1.2)`, `(warm glow:1.4)`.
5. **Use the Negative Prompt:** The negative prompt is crucial for steering the AI away from undesirable results and ensuring a clean, focused, and calming visual.

### **Master Prompt Template**

**(Start with the Core Concept, then add selections from the sections below)**

**Core Concept:**
An ultra-realistic, deeply immersive, and soothing ASMR visual designed for meditation. The central focus is a single, mesmerizing candle flame. The scene is crafted to evoke a profound sense of peace, tranquility, and mindful presence.

#### **[1. Primary Subject & Action – CHOOSE ONE OR COMBINE]**

* **Option A (Gentle Flicker):** A single, steady candle flame gently flickering in a windless room. The movement is hypnotic and slow, with the wick glowing a deep orange at its base, casting soft, pulsing light. The wax around the wick has a liquid, translucent quality.
* **Option B (Slow Dance):** The flame of a thick pillar candle slowly dances and sways, as if in a gentle, imperceptible draft. The flame’s shape fluidly morphs from a teardrop to a soft, elongated curve, creating a mesmerizing, rhythmic motion.
* **Option C (Steady Glow):** An almost perfectly still candle flame, emanating a powerful, unwavering warm glow. The focus is on the intense, vibrant color gradient within the flame itself—from a hot blue base to a bright yellow core and a soft orange-red halo.
* **Option D (Custom):** `[Describe the specific type of candle (e.g., beeswax taper, soy wax in a glass jar, thick pillar candle) and the specific movement of its flame (e.g., wavering softly, pulsing with light, casting long shadows)].`

#### **[2. Visual Style & Aesthetics – CHOOSE 1-3 KEYWORDS]**

* Photorealistic, Hyperrealistic, Cinematic, Atmospheric, Ethereal, Minimalist, Zen, Contemplative, Dreamlike, Serene.

#### **[3. Composition & Framing – CHOOSE ONE & ADD DETAILS]**

* **Option A (Extreme Close-Up):** An extreme close-up (ECU) macro shot, focusing entirely on the flame and the glowing wick. The background is completely out of focus, reduced to a beautiful, soft bokeh. This shot emphasizes the intricate details and hypnotic movement of the fire.
* **Option B (Macro Shot):** A macro shot capturing the flame, the wick, and the pool of molten wax at the top of the candle. We can see the texture of the solid wax on the candle’s edge. The depth of field is very shallow, isolating the subject.
* **Option C (Medium Close-Up):** A medium close-up (MCU) where the top third of the candle is visible. This provides more context for the candle’s shape and material, while the flame remains the primary focal point. The background is softly blurred but hints at a calm environment.

**Additional Compositional Elements (Add as needed):**
* Shallow Depth of Field (DoF), Rack Focus, Rule of Thirds composition, Centered Composition, Soft Focus.

#### **[4. Lighting & Atmosphere – CHOOSE & CUSTOMIZE]**

* **Core Lighting:** The scene is illuminated solely by the candle flame itself. The lighting is soft, warm, and ambient, creating a high-contrast environment with deep, soft shadows (subtle chiaroscuro effect).
* **Atmospheric Elements (Choose one or none):**
* Tiny, glowing dust motes (particulates) are visible, slowly floating through the warm air around the flame, catching the light and adding a magical, dreamy quality.
* A very subtle, almost imperceptible haze or mist in the air, creating soft light rays emanating from the flame.
* A clean, crisp atmosphere with no particulates, focusing purely on the flame’s light.
* **Reflections:** `[Describe any reflections, e.g., The flame’s light reflects softly on a dark, polished wooden surface below | The flame is reflected in a nearby window showing a dark, peaceful night outside].`

#### **[5. Color Palette – CUSTOMIZE]**

* **Dominant Palette:** A rich and warm palette consisting of **(warm amber:1.3), soft orange, deep gold, incandescent yellow, and hints of cerulean blue at the flame’s base.**
* **Background & Shadows:** The background and shadows should be in deep, muted, and calming tones to make the flame pop. Choose from: `[deep indigo blue | charcoal grey | warm mahogany wood texture | dark, matte stone wall | velvet blackness]`.

#### **[6. Technical Specifications – CHOOSE & CUSTOMIZE]**

* **Resolution & Quality:** 4K, 8K, Ultra-High Definition, masterpiece quality, professional photography.
* **Rendering Engine (if applicable):** Rendered in Unreal Engine 5, Octane Render, V-Ray. (These terms often push the AI towards higher realism).
* **Lens & Camera Effect:** Shot on a Leica Noctilux or Zeiss Otus lens (suggests premium glass quality), f/1.2 aperture (for extreme bokeh), cinematic film grain (optional, for texture).
* **Aspect Ratio:** Cinematic 16:9, Widescreen 21:9, Full-screen 9:16 (for mobile).

#### **[7. Negative Prompt – ESSENTIAL FOR REFINEMENT]**

**Negative Prompt:**
`harsh lighting, bright lights, multiple light sources, distracting background elements, clutter, smoke, fire hazard, anything burning other than the wick, jarring motion, fast flickering, cartoon, CGI, 3D render, drawing, painting, watermark, text, signature, human hands, people, blurry image, noise, pixelated, ugly, deformed, too much smoke.`
