Hand-Painted Anime Film Still

Complexity Level: Intermediate
Prompt Code Block

Write an image prompt for a single frame that feels like a hand-painted animated feature film. Original scene only. Do not depict a known character, film, or studio logo. The look people search for is the soft, painted anime-film background: watercolor light, everyday detail, quiet weather. SCENE Place: [PLACE — e.g. a hillside train platform after rain] Time and weather: [LATE AFTERNOON, CLEARING SHOWER] Who is present: [ONE OR TWO ORIGINAL FIGURES, OR EMPTY] What they are doing: [SMALL ACTION] Mood: [CALM | LONELY | HOPEFUL | BUSY BUT GENTLE] Era of objects: [PRESENT DAY | 1990s] Aspect: [16:9 STILL | 9:16 STORY] STYLE DIRECTION TO BAKE INTO THE PROMPT Hand-painted background, visible brush in clouds and foliage, clean character line if a figure is present, soft rim light, practical colors (no neon unless the scene has a real sign), atmospheric perspective, a lived-in prop with a specific detail I name: [PROP]. Avoid: photoreal skin, 3D CGI plastic, chibi, mecha, weapons, readable trademark logos, subtitle text, a famous skyline used as a signature. OUTPUT 1) The prompt in one paragraph a model can take literally. 2) A shorter prompt (under 60 words) if the long one over-constrains the model. 3) Negative prompt. 4) Suggested parameters for Midjourney (--ar, --stylize low-to-mid so it does not invent a poster layout) and a one-line Flux/SD note (no version flag, name the same scene). 5) Three alternate weathers for the same place, one sentence each, so I can make a set without drifting the location. If I named a copyrighted character, replace them with an original figure and tell me you did.

💡 Pro Tips & Advice

1. Use bracketed items: Be sure to fill out all [PLACEHOLDER] elements with specific details before sending the prompt to the AI model.

2. Adjust temperature: For creative tasks, set AI temperature higher (e.g., 0.8), or lower (e.g., 0.2) for strict coding/technical tasks.
