### Pre-Filled Template & Production Source

````txt
### 1 · Core theme
`landscape timelapse | natural light cycle | one locked grade across time | grand stillness | photoreal, no HDR oversharpening, no oversaturated postcard look`

### 2 · Character & scene

**Subject (light + time over [Place]):** the landscape is the frame;
*time* is the subject. [Motion] compressed — clouds and shadows move
fast while the land stays solid. A [Foreground] anchors scale and gives
the eye a fixed point as the light changes around it.

**Imperfections (keep it real, not a stock postcard):** a faint lens
flare and dust as the sun crests, one bird crossing the frame, haze in
the far valley, uneven cloud — nature is never perfectly clean.

### 3 · Atmosphere & quality
Shot on a RED / ARRI with a wide anamorphic lens on a motion-control
timelapse rig. **Lock ONE grade across the whole arc: [Grade]** — mark
the passage of time *only* through the changing sun angle, shadow length,
and sky colour, never by switching filters. Photoreal, fine natural grain,
true dynamic range (no crunchy HDR halos).

### 4 · Camera rules
Locked-off, or an extremely slow motion-control push/parallax — a
timelapse rides a rig, not a hand.
- *Breathing:* keep it **minimal here** — a tripod-locked timelapse should
  be rock-steady; at most an imperceptible drift. (This is the rare
  template where the full breath-float line is dialled almost to zero.)
- *Sound:* No score. Production / ambient audio only — wind over the
  ridge, distant water, birdsong at dawn, the deep quiet of night.

### 5 · Storyboard (4 beats = one day, ~12s)

```
0–3s · Pre-dawn ([Grade] at its coolest)
Action: [Place] under blue pre-dawn light, [Foreground] a silhouette.
        [Motion] just beginning, slow.
Camera: Locked wide. The sky lightens at the edge.

3–6s · Sunrise → midday
Action: Sun crests — a flare and dust catch the lens; shadows shorten and
        sweep across the land as [Motion] accelerates.
Camera: Imperceptible slow push.

6–9s · Afternoon → dusk
Action: Light warms through the locked grade, shadows lengthen the other
        way, clouds streaming gold. A bird crosses once.

9–12s · Dusk → night (restrained close)
Action: Colour drains to deep blue, first stars. [Motion] slows and
        settles.
Close:  No dramatic sun-ray finale, no music swell. Just the valley going
        quiet under the first stars, [Foreground] still where it began.

### Negative prompt (Seedance / Kling — paste into the dedicated field)
```
blurry, low resolution, watermark, text overlay, subtitles, logo, oversaturated colors, HDR halos, crunchy oversharpening, postcard look, fake painted sky, plastic CG terrain, video-game look, 3D render, grade shifting between shots, flickering exposure (timelapse flicker), warping geometry, melting clouds, jarring hard cuts, shaky handheld camera
