Universal Prompt Prompt:
Shot Type: Wide Shot - The camera captures a broad view of the brutalist interior, emphasizing the vastness of the space and the relatively small size of the leaping figure.
Composition Techniques: Leading Lines, Asymmetry, Low Angle - The red handrails and concrete structures create strong diagonal lines that guide the eye towards the central figure. The asymmetrical placement of the figure adds dynamic tension to the scene. The low angle perspective emphasizes the height and monumentality of the space.
Lighting: The scene is lit with harsh, cool institutional lighting. Ceiling-mounted fluorescent fixtures cast a stark, even illumination throughout the space. This creates sharp shadows and heightens the contrast between the light concrete surfaces and darker recesses. The lighting accentuates the texture of the concrete walls and floor, emphasizing their rough, brutalist quality.
Color Palette: The dominant colors are cool grays from the concrete, punctuated by the striking red of the handrails. The figure's blue suit provides a subtle contrast. This limited palette reinforces the austere, institutional feel of the environment.
Mood and Emotion: The scene evokes a sense of tension and surrealism. The stark environment contrasts sharply with the dynamic, almost balletic pose of the leaping figure, creating a dreamlike quality. There's an underlying anxiety in the vast, oppressive architecture juxtaposed with the freedom of the figure's movement.
Style: The image blends elements of surrealism with a hyper-realistic documentary style. The brutalist architecture is captured with crisp, photorealistic detail, while the figure's impossible leap adds a surreal, dreamlike element to the scene.
Location and Setting: The setting is a multi-level brutalist interior, likely a public building or institution. Massive concrete walls form a series of interconnected spaces and levels. Red metal handrails line staircases and walkways, providing both safety and a striking visual element. The space feels vast, cold, and somewhat maze-like, with multiple levels visible and hinting at even more unseen areas.
Character Placement: A single figure, dressed in a blue suit, is captured mid-leap in the center of the frame. Their body is fully extended, arms outstretched, creating a diagonal line that echoes the handrails. The figure appears to be leaping impossible distances between levels, defying gravity. Their face is turned slightly away from the camera, maintaining an air of mystery.
Textural Details: The concrete walls exhibit a rough, tactile quality typical of brutalist architecture. Some areas show slight discoloration or staining, hinting at the age and use of the building. The red handrails have a smooth, painted metal finish that contrasts with the roughness of the concrete. The figure's suit appears to be made of a fine, dark blue wool, its crisp lines a stark contrast to the harsh environment.
Spatial Relationships: The multiple levels create a complex, layered environment. Staircases and walkways intersect at various points, creating a sense of depth and interconnectedness. The leaping figure bridges two of these levels, emphasizing the verticality of the space and the daring nature of their action.
Atmospheric Elements: Despite the interior setting, there's a sense of airiness and vast space. The institutional lighting creates a slightly hazy atmosphere, softening some of the harsh edges of the architecture. This haziness contributes to the dreamlike quality of the scene, blurring the line between reality and surrealism.

Prompt for Flux
"Wide Shot: Capture a dramatic, expansive view of a brutalist interior, showcasing the enormity of the space with a solitary figure mid-leap. Techniques: Employ leading lines with strong diagonal elements from red handrails and concrete structures guiding the viewer's eye to the central figure. Use asymmetry for dynamic tension and a low angle perspective to emphasize the towering architecture. Lighting: Illuminate the scene with harsh, cool institutional lighting from ceiling-mounted fluorescents, casting sharp shadows and enhancing the contrast between light concrete surfaces and darker recesses. Color Palette: Focus on cool grays of concrete, accented by vibrant red handrails and a striking blue suit worn by the figure, reinforcing the austere feel. Mood: Evoke tension and surrealism, contrasting the stark environment with the figure's dynamic pose, creating a dreamlike quality amidst architectural oppression. Style: Blend surrealism and hyper-realistic documentary style, capturing brutalist details while highlighting the impossible leap of the figure. Location: Set within a multi-level brutalist public building, featuring massive concrete walls and interconnected spaces. Character: Position a single figure dressed in a tailored blue suit, captured in mid-leap, arms fully extended and face turned slightly away for mystery. Textures: Highlight the roughness of concrete walls with subtle discolorations and smooth finishes on the red handrails, contrasting with the figure’s fine wool suit. Spatial Relationships: Showcase a complex environment with multiple levels, emphasizing verticality and daring action. Atmosphere: Create a sense of airiness despite the rigid architecture, with institutional lighting softening edges for a subtly hazy, dreamlike atmosphere."
