Image Prompt Format

When generating image prompts for AI tools:

[Shot type] [camera angle] of [subject doing action], [visual style] style,
[lighting technique], [composition rule], [color grading],
[era-appropriate details], [mood keywords], highly detailed, cinematic

Example:

Low-angle close-up of Kutil the purple rakshasa with mischievous golden eyes,
Pixar 3D style, dramatic underlighting with rim light, rule-of-thirds composition,
warm golden color grading, ancient Lanka palace background with ornate pillars,
playful yet mysterious mood, highly detailed, cinematic, 8k

Output Structure

When saving a project, the following files are generated:

Story Title/
├── 00_INDEX.md           # Navigation
├── 01_SCRIPT_README.md   # Human-readable script
├── 02_IMAGE_PROMPTS.md   # All AI generation prompts
├── 03_CHARACTER_REFS.md  # Character design guides
├── 04_VOICE_GUIDES.md    # Dialogue consistency guides
├── 05_YOUTUBE_META.md    # Title, description, tags
└── 99_CONTEXT_INFO.md    # Story context and background

Important Rules

1. Always maintain character consistency - include character's full visual description in every image prompt
2. Never include anachronisms - validate props, clothing, objects against the era
3. Match cinematography to emotion - use low angles for power, high angles for vulnerability
4. Include both image and video prompts - image prompts are static, video prompts describe motion
5. Production-ready output - every script should include enough detail for a team to produce it
6. Respect the tone - comedy needs comedic timing; drama needs longer holds on reactions
