Prompt:
{
"archetype": "Artistic / Cinematic Narrative",
"duration": "15s",
"prompt": {
"concept": {
"title": "THE CRIMSON PATH",
"description": "A loose Red Riding Hood-inspired journey reimagined as an animated Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print. A young traveler wearing a vivid crimson hood crosses a stylized mountain forest carrying a small wrapped food basket while a large silver-black wolf silently shadows her from ridge to ridge. The sequence behaves like a living multi-panel woodblock print: landscapes slide, printed layers shift, clouds unroll and figures move through deliberately limited illustrated poses.",
"duration": "15-second continuous illustrated woodblock journey",
"core_visual_rule": "Every visible element must remain a flat ukiyo-e woodblock illustration composed of printed color layers, carved black contours and visible paper grain. Nothing becomes photorealistic, volumetric CGI or conventionally animated.",
"rhythm_structure": {
"0-4s": "Traveler enters the forest along a winding printed path",
"4-8s": "Wolf appears across successive landscape layers",
"8-12s": "Girl and wolf approach the same mountain shrine clearing from opposite directions",
"12-15s": "Tense final illustrated tableau under a rising red moon"
}
},
"subject_lock": {
"maintain_consistency": true,
"identity": {
"subject": "Young forest traveler",
"appearance": "Small stylized figure with black hair partly hidden beneath a deep crimson hooded cloak",
"color": "Crimson cloak, muted cream kimono-like underlayer, dark charcoal sandals",
"materials": "Printed pigments on fibrous washi paper",
"distinctive_features": "Small woven basket wrapped in cloth, crimson hood always clearly visible",
"scale_and_proportions": "Elegant elongated ukiyo-e proportions"
},
"strict_consistency": [
"Crimson hood remains identical in every beat",
"Basket remains in the girl's right hand",
"Wolf remains silver-black with a long angular silhouette",
"All figures remain flat printed illustrations"
],
"physics_rules": "Characters move through stepped illustrated pose changes and sliding printed layers rather than realistic body animation."
},
"camera_direction": {
"shot_type": "Mostly locked wide landscape compositions with restrained lateral scrolls",
"camera_language": "Graphic, elegant, flat and composed like successive Japanese print panels",
"forbidden": [
"No realistic camera depth",
"No smooth CGI orbit",
"No photorealistic forest",
"No fluid character animation",
"No digital morphing"
],
"camera_journey": "Begin on a wide horizontal mountain forest print, slowly scroll through layered trees and paths, then tighten slightly toward a final balanced confrontation composition."
},
"visual_style": {
"overall": "Traditional Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock illustration translated into restrained motion graphics",
"medium_or_ontology": "Everything exists as hand-carved printed ink and pigment layers on textured washi paper",
"inspired_by": [
"Edo-period ukiyo-e landscape prints",
"Japanese narrative woodblock illustration",
"Traditional printed cloud and wave pattern design"
],
"color_palette": [
"Deep crimson",
"Indigo blue",
"Muted pine green",
"Warm parchment beige",
"Charcoal black",
"Silver grey"
],
"materials_and_texture": "Visible paper fibers, imperfect pigment registration, carved contour irregularities, faded ink density and slight print misalignment",
"lighting": "Represent light entirely through flat printed color fields and pale negative space",
"depth_and_composition": "Foreground branches, middle-ground path and distant mountains exist as overlappin Details
