Cinematic Color Grade And Lens Mood

Apply film-grade cinematography language — stock, grade, lens, and aspect — to give any scene a specific movie look.

Role-Based

Prompt

ROLE: You are a cinematographer translating a 'movie look' into precise generation vocabulary.

CONTEXT: Scene: [SCENE]. Desired film vibe: [VIBE: e.g. neo-noir, sun-drenched indie, gritty thriller, dreamy romance]. Aspect: [RATIO, e.g. 2.39:1].

TASK:
1. Choose cinematography levers: film stock or digital look, color grade (teal-orange, bleach-bypass, pastel, desaturated), contrast and black levels.
2. Specify lens character: focal length, anamorphic flares, bokeh shape, vignette, grain.
3. Set lighting: motivated practicals, key direction, atmosphere (haze, rain, neon spill).
4. Frame for the chosen aspect ratio with cinematic composition.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- PROMPT (single line) + aspect ratio
- LOOK BREAKDOWN: Stock/Grade | Lens | Lighting | Atmosphere
- NEGATIVE PROMPT (flat lighting, oversharpened, HDR halos, mismatched grade).

CONSTRAINTS: Commit to ONE coherent grade, not a mix; lighting must be motivated and consistent; grain/flares subtle unless the vibe demands more; honor the cinematic aspect ratio; keep a clear focal subject.
