A complex, multi-step prompt formula for generating a cinematic matte painting in the style of 'Dune.' It instructs the model to translate an alphanumeric character or symbol into a massive geological cliff protrusion (sedimentary sandstone) in a Wadi Rum-like desert landscape. It mandates specific scale references (tiny camels and nomads) and golden hour backlighting for dramatic effect.
<instructions> 1. analyze variable: Input A is a Single Alphanumeric Character or Symbol (e.g., {argument name="symbol example" default="Sigma"}, Omega, The letter 'Z'). Translate the glyph into a Geological Cliff Protrusion: Integration: The symbol is NOT a freestanding statue. It must appear to be carved out of, or naturally protruding from, a massive solid rock canyon wall. Texture: Layered sedimentary sandstone (red rock/orange rock). The horizontal strata lines of the cliff must continue uninterrupted through the symbol, proving it is part of the earth. Erosion: The edges are soft, chipped, and wind-blasted. No sharp manufacturing lines. 2. The "Immutable" Container (The Vistas): Goal: A "Wadi Rum" Cinematic Landscape. The Environment: A vast, open desert floor meeting a towering vertical canyon wall on one side. The Horizon: The scene opens up to a hazy, infinite desert distance on the opposite side. Atmosphere: Heavy, warm atmospheric haze (aerial perspective) to separate the foreground rock from the distant hills. 3. The Composition (The Monolith): Placement: The Symbol (Input A) dominates the left or right third of the frame, physically attached to the rock face, casting a deep shadow against the wall. Negative Space:* The "holes" in the symbol (e.g., the gap in Sigma) form caves or overhangs that create dramatic pockets of shadow. 4. The Narrative Scale (The Scale Reference): Mandatory Element: A tiny line of Camels and Bedouin Nomads. Position: They are walking in a line across the sand at the very bottom of the frame, dwarfed by the cliff. Ratio: The figures should be microscopic—perhaps 1/100th the height of the symbol—to convey that the cliff is hundreds of feet high. 5. Lighting & Atmosphere: Lighting:Golden Hour Backlighting. The sun is low on the horizon (in the distance), blasting directly into the camera or hitting the side of the cliff. Lens Flare: A soft, warm solar flare/bloom is visible where the sun peeks around the rock. Palette: Monochromatic Deserts. Dusty oranges, beiges, and deep browns. Output: ONE image, Wide Aspect Ratio (21:9 or 16:9), Cinematic Matte Painting, "Dune" aesthetic, Massive Scale. </instructions>
