A surrealist prompt for capturing a wide drone photo of a giant man, with his face and body based on a reference image, casually sitting on a London street. The scene emphasizes the scale contrast between the enormous human figure and the tiny urban elements around him, rendered in soft overcast daylight.
Prompt
A photorealistic wide drone shot of a colossal man (exact face/body from the reference) casually sitting across a London street, one knee raised, hand resting. He wears a navy overcoat, knit sweater, dark trousers, boots, and a minimalist beanie. Tiny cars, buses, bikes, and pedestrians move around him, with classic London red-brick buildings, black lamps, and cobblestone streets dwarfed by his size. Soft overcast London daylight highlights wet pavement.
A highly detailed and complex prompt designed to create a seamless 16:9 composite image divided into four distinct quadrants, each representing a different brand (Luckin Coffee, Google, Coca-Cola, McDonald's), using an exquisite paper-cut aesthetic, specific structural requirements, and Octane rendering.
Prompt
A seamless 16:9 full-frame composite image divided into four distinct quadrants. **CRITICAL:** The four sections touch each other directly. NO GREY BACKGROUND. NO BORDERS. NO GAPS. The image is filled edge-to-edge with paper details. **Composition:** A split-screen view looking deep into four different paper worlds. 1) **Top-Left (Luckin):** A wide view of a magical paper forest. Blue and white paper clouds and coffee leaves fill the quadrant completely. A white paper stag leaps through the density. 2) **Top-Right (Google):** A wide view of a **"Topographic Map" style paper cavern**. The "G" logo is formed by **hundreds of thin sheets** of Blue, Red, Yellow, and Green paper stacked horizontally. It looks like a sediment canyon or a contour map. Visible paper fibers and sharp cut edges. NO plastic smoothness. 3) **Bottom-Left (Coke):** A wide view of a red paper explosion. The Coke bottle is a **Negative Space Silhouette**—a deep hole void cut through dense layers of red paper. White paper ribbons span across the void. 4) **Bottom-Right (McDonald's):** A wide view of a yellow paper city. Vertical strips of yellow paper (french fries) stand densely packing the frame. The Golden Arches rise from deep within the layers. **Global Material:** Everything is matte cardstock. **Lighting:** Soft, even studio lighting revealing the depth of the paper cuts. **Tech:** Octane render, 8k, --ar 16:9 --stylize 400 --no borders, frames, background wall, isolated objects, 3d plastic, seamless texture
