Prompt Structure

shot

camera motion
Type: Slow pan / subtle dolly in toward the log, tracking hands while marking. Effect: Smooth motion, emphasizes craftsmanship without jitter. Optional: Slight parallax between foreground (hands/log) and background (tools/workshop) for cinematic depth.
composition
Foreground: Carpenter’s hands, pencil/chisel, tree log. Midground: Part of workshop, tools. Background: Soft blur, moody light, wooden textures. Color Palette: Warm earthy tones (browns, ambers), subtle dust particles in sunlight. Mood: Cinematic, slightly dramatic, artisanal, immersive.
frame rate
Suggested: 24 fps → cinematic film look Alternative: 30 fps → slightly smoother, modern video look Tip: 24 fps is more dramatic and movie‑style; 30 fps is cleaner for digital platforms.
film grain
Amount: Very light, just enough to give cinematic texture. Effect: Adds realism, prevents overly “digital/CGI” feel. Optional: Slight motion blur on hands movement for natural feel.

subject

description
Who: Skilled artisan/carpenter, focused and precise. Appearance: Middle-aged (or as per your idea), slightly rugged hands, tanned skin from working with wood, expressive hands with fine motor control. Facial expression: Concentrated, calm, absorbed in the task. Hair/Face: Neatly tied hair or short, slightly dusty from workshop environment. Skin/Hands: Realistic textures, slight sawdust on hands for authenticity.
wardrobe

Secondary Details: Slight dust particles fly as pencil scratches, camera focuses on hands while background is blurred. Mood/Style: Focused, cinematic, immersive — showing craftsmanship.

scene

location
Primary setting: Artisan workshop / small woodworking studio. Details: Wooden tables, scattered tools, logs of wood, chisels, saws. Background slightly cluttered but cinematic. Sunlight coming through dusty windows, creating warm highlights and soft shadows.
time of day
Ideal: Morning to early afternoon — sunlight is soft and warm. Effect: Dust particles in sunlight become visible, creating cinematic rays. Optional: Golden hour lighting for extra warmth and drama.
lighting

tone
Warm, earthy, artisanal feel. Calm, focused, cinematic storytelling style. Slightly nostalgic and immersive, emphasizing craftsmanship. Color palette: Browns, ambers, muted greens, soft sunlight glow.

visual details

style
Cinematic realism: Ultra-realistic textures, photorealistic wood and skin, volumetric lighting. Artisan/handcrafted focus: Close attention to wood grain, hand movements, tools, and workshop details. Camera feel: Slight shallow depth of field, soft bokeh in background, subtle lens flare from sunlight. Overall vibe: Immersive storytelling — audience feels they are in the workshop with the carpenter.
color palette
Primary: Warm earthy tones — browns, beiges, ambers, muted greens. Accent: Sunlight highlights — soft golds and yellows on wood and dust particles. Background: Slightly desaturated to keep focus on carpenter and log. Tools & Details: Neutral tones (metallic chisels, leather apron, wood tones) for realism.
mood

cinematography

depth of field
Type: Shallow / selective focus. Effect: Carpenter’s hands and marking on the log are sharp and in focus, background workshop slightly blurred (bokeh effect). Purpose: Draws viewer’s attention to main action (marking), adds cinematic realism.
focus
Primary focus: Carpenter’s hands and pencil/chisel interacting with the wood. Secondary: Slight soft focus on log surface and wood texture. Background: Subtle blur to create depth, tools and workshop visible but not distracting.
exposure
Type: Balanced exposure → not too dark, not overexposed. Highlights: Sunlight hitting dust and wood gets slightly enhanced for cinematic glow. Shadows: Soft, retains texture in darker areas of workshop. Dynamic Range: High dynamic range for photorealistic effect.
white balance
Type: Warm / slightly golden — matches sunlight streaming in workshop. Effect: Accentuates wood tones, earthy palette, adds warmth to skin tones of carpenter. Optional: Slight correction to avoid overly yellow or red tint, keep natural look.

audio

ambient
Workshop ka realistic background: Soft wood dust falling, occasional scraping of tools, faint creaking of wooden floor or bench. Subtle wind/dust particles moving through window light. Purpose: Scene ko immersive aur realistic feel dena.
dialogue
Optional: Agar aap voiceover chahte ho: Carpenter softly muttering: “Yeh line bilkul theek honi chahiye…” (or “[Character Name] ka face perfectly mark karna hai”). Tone calm, focused, natural. Use very subtle voice so it doesn’t overpower ambient sounds.
music
Type: Minimal instrumental, cinematic, slightly warm/organic tone. Example: Soft piano, light strings, or gentle percussive wooden tones. Purpose: Add emotional depth without distracting from craftsmanship. Volume: Low, supportive, cinematic ambience.
sound effects
Pencil/chisel scratching wood (timed with hands in focus). Small wood shavings falling on floor or table. Subtle echo/reverb in workshop for cinematic realism. Optional: Slight camera movement swoosh or pan effect for smooth transitions.

motion

camera movement
Type: Slow, smooth, cinematic pan & slight dolly-in toward the log. Purpose: Highlight carpenter’s hands and marking on log, adds depth. Optional: Slight parallax effect — foreground (hands/log) moves faster than background (workshop).
subject movement
Carpenter moves deliberately & slowly, marking the tree log. Slight head tilts and careful pencil/chisel strokes. Hands/fingers move naturally, showing craftsmanship. No sudden jerky motion — keep focus cinematic and calm.
speed
Camera & subject speed: Slow to moderate → emphasizes detail. Tempo: Consistent, cinematic storytelling pace. Use slight slow-motion for key marking strokes to highlight craftsmanship.
duration
Total video: 6 seconds Suggested camera + subject segments: Opening shot (1.5 sec): Slight wide/medium-close showing carpenter & tree log. Close-up (2 sec): Carpenter marking log, hands in focus, subtle slow-motion pencil strokes. Transition shot (1.5 sec): Slight dolly/slow pan, parallax, showing texture of wood and dust particles. Final micro-shot (1 sec): Highlight marking detail on log, cinematic focus & shallow DoF. Speed / Tempo: Slow-moderate → emphasize detail, cinematic look. Smooth transitions between segments so 6 seconds feel like continuous cinematic flow, no abrupt cuts.

video style
