#### **Core Prompt Structure**

**1. Scene Overview & Tone:**
* **Logline:** A one-sentence summary of the scene. `[Example: A lone explorer discovers an ancient, dormant alien city just as a binary sunset begins.]`
* **Overall Mood:** The dominant emotional feeling of the scene. `[Example: Awe-inspiring, mysterious, tense, desolate, hopeful, suspenseful, action-packed.]`
* **Pacing:** The speed and rhythm of the action and camera work. `[Example: Slow, contemplative, and majestic OR fast-paced, frantic, and chaotic.]`

**2. Primary Subject & Core Action:**
* **Character(s):** Describe the main character(s) in the shot. Focus on visual details.
* `[Number of characters] [Species/Type: e.g., human astronaut, alien scout, biomechanical android]`
* `[Appearance Details: e.g., wearing a rugged, patched-up EVA suit with a mirrored gold visor, their face partially visible showing determination and exhaustion. OR a sleek, insectoid alien with iridescent carapace.]`
* **Key Action:** Describe the central action or event the character is performing. Use strong, cinematic verbs.
* `[Character is performing this action: e.g., cautiously approaching a pulsating alien artifact, desperately repairing a sparking console on a crashing ship, planting a flag on a storm-wracked moon, leaping across a chasm between floating asteroids.]`
* **Emotional State:** Describe the character’s visible emotion. `[Example: face set in grim determination, eyes wide with wonder, posture conveying fear and caution.]`

**3. Environment & World-Building:**
* **Location:** The specific setting of the scene.
* `[General Location: e.g., Alien Planet Surface, Derelict Starship Bridge, Crystalline Asteroid Cave, Nebula Gas Cloud, Orbital Space Station.]`
* **Environmental Details:** Add rich, sensory details to bring the world to life.
* **Flora & Fauna:** `[e.g., fields of bioluminescent fungi that pulse with soft light, towering crystalline trees, flocks of metallic, bird-like creatures soaring in the sky.]`
* **Geology & Atmosphere:** `[e.g., jagged obsidian mountains under a swirling green sky, purple sand dunes shifting in the wind, a thick, hazy yellow atmosphere with two suns setting on the horizon.]`
* **Architectural Style (if applicable):** `[e.g., colossal, monolithic structures of unknown origin, overgrown with alien vines; a sterile, minimalist interior of a futuristic science lab.]`
* **Physics & Phenomena:** `[e.g., low gravity causing dust to hang in the air, floating islands of rock drifting slowly, visible auroras wrapping around a gas giant in the background.]`

**4. Cinematography & Visual Style:**
* **Shot Type & Angle:** Define the camera’s position and framing.
* `[Shot Type: e.g., extreme wide shot, medium close-up, over-the-shoulder shot, point-of-view (POV) from inside the helmet.]`
* `[Camera Angle: e.g., low angle shot to emphasize scale and power, high angle shot to show vulnerability, Dutch angle for disorientation.]`
* **Camera Movement:** Describe how the camera moves through the scene.
* `[Movement: e.g., slow dolly-in towards the character’s face, sweeping crane shot revealing the vast landscape, frantic handheld shaky-cam during an action sequence, smooth tracking shot following the character as they run.]`
* **Lens & Focus:** Specify the lens characteristics for a professional look.
* `[Lens: e.g., wide-angle lens with slight barrel distortion, anamorphic lens with cinematic lens flares, telephoto lens with a shallow depth of field, macro shot focusing on a small detail.]`
* **Lighting:** Describe the lighting scheme.
* `[Lighting Style: e.g., harsh, direct light from a nearby star creating long shadows; soft, diffused light from a glowing nebula; dramatic chiaroscuro lighting inside a dark spaceship, punctuated by flashing red alert lights; volumetric lighting with god rays piercing through alien fog.]`

**5. Aesthetic & Production Quality:**
* **Art Style / Influence:** Reference specific films, artists, or styles to guide the AI.
* `[Style of: e.g., Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune,” the gritty realism of “The Expanse,” the clean futurism of “Star Trek (2009),” the surrealism of H.R. Giger, the vibrant aesthetic of “Guardians of the Galaxy.”]`
* **Color Palette:** Define the dominant colors of the scene.
* `[Colors: e.g., desaturated and cool tones of blues and greys; a triadic scheme of deep purples, oranges, and teals; monochromatic with stark white and black.]`
* **Texture & Detail Level:** Specify the desired level of realism and detail.
* `[Texture: e.g., hyper-realistic, photorealistic, 8K, high detail, Unreal Engine 5 render, cinematic VFX, textured and weathered surfaces showing age and wear.]`

**6. Output Format:**
* **Aspect Ratio:** `[e.g., 16:9 widescreen, 2.39:1 anamorphic cinematic.]`
* **Duration:** `[e.g., 10-second clip, 20-second continuous shot.]`
* **Video Quality:** `[e.g., 4K, high definition.]`

### **Example Prompt in Practice**

Here is a complete, filled-out prompt using the dynamic template above.

—

**1. Scene Overview & Tone:**
* **Logline:** An explorer in a massive cave system on a forgotten moon discovers a vast, subterranean ocean teeming with bioluminescent life.
* **Overall Mood:** Awe-inspiring, profoundly mysterious, and slightly intimidating.
* **Pacing:** Slow, majestic, and contemplative, allowing the viewer to absorb the scale of the discovery.

**2. Primary Subject & Core Action:**
* **Character(s):** One human astronaut.
* **Appearance Details:** Wearing a slightly bulky but advanced, dark grey EVA suit with teal accent lighting. The suit is scuffed and covered in fine crystalline dust. Through the wide, clear visor, the astronaut’s face, a woman in her late 30s, is fully visible, her eyes wide with a mixture of shock and wonder.
* **Key Action:** The astronaut has just crested a ridge inside the cave and stands perfectly still at the edge of a colossal drop-off. She slowly raises a hand to her helmet, as if to make sure what she’s seeing is real.
* **Emotional State:** Her expression is one of pure, unadulterated awe, mouth slightly agape.

**3. Environment & World-Building:**
* **Location:** A gigantic subterranean cavern on Triton-7, a desolate ice moon.
* **Environmental Details:**
* **Flora & Fauna:** The subterranean ocean below is filled with massive, whale-like creatures made of pure light that swim in slow, graceful arcs. Tendrils of glowing algae, like ethereal curtains, drift in the unseen currents. The cave walls are lined with clusters of giant, glowing blue crystals that cast a soft, ethereal light throughout the cavern.
* **Geology & Atmosphere:** The cave ceiling is impossibly high, lost in darkness, with enormous stalactites hanging down like the teeth of a dead god. The air is clear, with tiny, shimmering ice particles gently drifting down like snow.
* **Architectural Style (if applicable):** N/A. The environment is entirely natural.
* **Physics & Phenomena:** The moon’s low gravity makes the floating ice particles fall very slowly. The light from the bioluminescent life below reflects and refracts off the countless crystals on the walls, creating a mesmerizing, kaleidoscopic effect.

**4. Cinematography & Visual Style:**
* **Shot Type & Angle:** Starts as a medium shot on the astronaut from behind, then executes a camera move. The final shot is an extreme wide shot from a low angle, looking up at the astronaut, who is dwarfed by the cavern and the ocean below.
* **Camera Movement:** A slow, continuous crane shot that starts behind the astronaut, rises up and over her shoulder to reveal the breathtaking view of the subterranean ocean for the first time, continuing to pull back to emphasize the immense scale.
* **Lens & Focus:** A very wide-angle lens (e.g., 14mm) to capture the vastness of the space. The depth of field is deep, keeping both the astronaut in the foreground and the creatures in the distant ocean in sharp focus.
* **Lighting:** The primary light source is the cool, blue-green bioluminescence from the ocean and the crystals. There are no harsh shadows, only soft, diffused, and magical light that creates a dreamlike atmosphere. Volumetric lighting should be used to make the light from the creatures feel tangible.

**5. Aesthetic & Production Quality:**
* **Art Style / Influence:** Cinematic style inspired by James Cameron’s “Avatar” (for its bioluminescence) and Denis Villeneuve’s “Arrival” (for its sense of scale and awe).
* **Color Palette:** A deep, rich palette dominated by sapphire blues, emerald greens, and deep indigos, contrasted with the dark grey of the rock and the astronaut’s suit.
* **Texture & Detail Level:** Hyper-realistic, 8K resolution, photorealistic CGI. The rock textures should be sharp and detailed, the water should look clear and deep, and the light from the creatures should have a soft, ethereal glow.

**6. Output Format:**
* **Aspect Ratio:** 2.39:1 anamorphic cinematic.
* **Duration:** 18-second continuous shot.
* **Video Quality:** 4K.
