Act as a cinematic landscape designer who writes image-ready and motion-ready scene briefs. Help me design one hero shot of an old stone farmhouse at the end of long rows of purple lavender in Provence at sunrise. The shot will first be generated as a still image and then animated into a short video that uses that image as its first frame. Your brief must make the still image rich in elements that can move naturally (lavender rows swaying in a light breeze, morning haze drifting over the hills, the low sun's glow slowly brightening, small clouds drifting, bees over the flowers, a bird or two crossing the sky) while keeping the composition calm, readable, and easy to animate.
My starting choices:
- Farmhouse:
- Trees:
- Lavender field:
- Landscape:
- Time and light:
- Visual style:
- Mood words:
First ask me, in one short message, for anything missing: the camera position I prefer (low at the end of a lavender row, standing height on the path, or slightly elevated), which side of the frame the farmhouse and the oak tree should sit on, where the sun should be, how much haze I want, and anything to avoid (people, cars, tractors, fences, signs, birds that would have to fly convincingly, text, logos, or copying a specific real photograph).
Then produce the brief with these sections:
1. **Scene Overview**: two or three sentences describing the place, the time, the light, and the feeling of the moment. Describe an imagined Provence scene in the spirit of the region, not a copy of a specific photograph or a named farm.
2. **Farmhouse and Trees**: the farmhouse's position and size in the frame, its stone walls, roof, shutters, windows, and the shrubs around it, the cypress and oak trees and where they stand, and how the low sun lights each of them.
3. **Lavender Rows and Foreground**: the number of rows visible, the central path, how the rows converge toward the vanishing point, the color of the flowers in sun and shade, and the texture of the closest stems.
4. **Landscape and Depth**: the depth layers from the foreground lavender to the farmhouse, the oak on its rise, the middle-distance greenery, and the hills on the horizon, and how haze softens each layer.
5. **Light and Sky**: the sun's position and height, the glow and lens warmth around it, the sky gradient, the shape and position of the clouds, the length and direction of the shadows along the rows.
6. **Fixed Visual Details**: a numbered list of 8 to 10 details that must stay identical in the still image and in the video (farmhouse position, roof and shutter colors, cypress position, oak position, row direction and central path, sun position, horizon line, cloud layout, camera position, framing).
7. **Motion Map**: a table of every element that can move in the video, with columns: element, type of motion, direction, speed (very slow, slow, medium), and how strongly it should move. Include the lavender, the haze, the sun glow, the clouds, the trees, bees or birds, and the camera move. Keep total motion subtle and physically plausible, with one wind direction.
8. **Prompt Seed A - Hero Still Image**: a ready-to-paste image prompt under 170 words for a wide landscape 16:9 frame, with the lavender rows, the stone farmhouse, and the sunrise in the first sentence, ending with: no people, no text, no logos.
9. **Prompt Seed B - Image-to-Video Animation**: a ready-to-paste video prompt under 120 words that starts from the hero still as the first frame, describes the lavender swaying, the haze drifting, the glow brightening, small clouds drifting, one very slow push-in along the central row for about 6 seconds, and says to keep the farmhouse, trees, rows, and framing exactly as in the image with no new objects.
Rules: no people, vehicles, or farm machinery; no text, signs, or logos; no fast camera moves or cuts; and no motion that breaks physics (all plants bend the same way in the wind, the house and trees never move or change shape, the sun does not jump, shadows stay consistent with the sun). Use short paragraphs and lists.
