WARRIORS - PAPER CUTS (PROMPTS)

Scene 1: Viking chief on a stormy coast

Create a historical paper-cut illustration. Use the attached reference picture only for its layered matte paper, torn edges and deep contact shadows. Low-angle wide shot of one powerful adult Viking chief standing firmly on a coastal rock ledge, filling 75 percent of frame height. He wears a plain iron helmet, leather armor over a wool tunic, trousers, boots and a dark fur-edged cloak lifted by the wind. He holds one axe lowered beside his right leg and a round wooden shield in his left hand. Keep his whole body and equipment inside the frame with clear margins. Behind him are a cold blue sea, one small distant Viking longship with a single muted red square sail, and rugged coastal cliffs. The ship is secondary to the dominant central chief. Slate-blue storm-cloud paper bands cross the sky. Palette: slate blue, charcoal, weathered wood and restrained dark red. Exactly one visible person and one distant ship. Landscape 16:9 widescreen. Keep the illustration free of lettering.

Scene 2: Egyptian pharaoh before a sandstone temple

Create a historical paper-cut illustration. Use the attached reference picture only for its layered matte paper, torn edges and deep contact shadows. Low-angle wide shot of one commanding adult Egyptian pharaoh standing on a raised sandstone terrace, filling 75 percent of frame height. He wears a gold-and-blue striped nemes headdress, a turquoise-and-gold broad collar over a full ivory linen robe, a gold belt and sandals. He holds one gold ceremonial crook upright beside his shoulder; his other hand rests at his side. The robe hem lifts gently in the breeze. Keep his whole body, headdress and crook inside the frame with clear margins. Behind him stands one compact sandstone temple entrance with two plain pylons and exactly two turquoise fabric banners, one on each side. One low sun in a warm ivory sky. Plain uninscribed stone, warm rim light and long soft shadows. Palette: ivory, sandstone gold and turquoise. Exactly one visible person. Landscape 16:9 widescreen. Keep the illustration free of lettering.

Scene 3: Spartan commander in a mountain pass

Create a historical paper-cut illustration. Use the attached reference picture only for its layered matte paper, torn edges and deep contact shadows. Low-angle wide shot of one powerful adult Spartan commander on a rocky ledge, filling 80 percent of frame height. He wears a bronze crested helmet, bronze body armor over a cloth tunic, and a crimson cloak lifted gently by wind. He holds a weathered round bronze shield in his left hand and one upright spear in his right; the whole spearhead sits inside the frame with a clear gap below the top edge. His whole body, feet and equipment remain inside frame. Behind him, exactly six small adult soldiers in bronze armor stand in a shield formation, three on each side, beneath rugged mountain-pass cliffs. Everyone is fully clothed and standing at rest in a tense moment before battle. One low sun in an ochre sky. Strong warm rim light from behind left. Palette: bronze, crimson, ochre, charcoal. Keep the illustration free of lettering. Landscape 16:9 widescreen.

Scene 4: Samurai under a full moon

Create a historical paper-cut illustration. Use the attached reference picture only for its layered matte paper, torn edges and deep contact shadows. A powerful cinematic paper-cut scene with one dominant samurai centred in the foreground, viewed slightly from below. Full figure fills about 80 percent of image height; broad shoulders and crimson armour dominate the frame. Dark charcoal kabuto helmet and face guard, restrained antique-gold details, large deep-red cloak hanging behind the shoulders. Both feet firmly on one dark rocky ledge. One sheathed katana held vertically at his side, tip down, entirely inside frame. Keep helmet, hands, cloak and feet fully visible with small clear margins. Behind him: layered jagged blue mountain ridges, deep indigo night sky, one huge pale ivory moon high to the right behind his shoulder. Dark rock layers frame the lower corners and create foreground depth. No other people, no buildings, no clouds, no text, no logo. Landscape 16:9.

Edit the attached finished image into one uninterrupted sheet of blank matte paper in the same colour as its upper sky. Remove every figure, prop, building, sun or moon, cloud, mountain and rock. Keep the paper grain, the wide framing and the exact image size. No objects, horizon, borders, shadows or text.

Create one continuous five-second paper-cut scene-removal shot. the start frame is the complete starting artwork. the end frame is the blank warm ochre paper ending frame. Preserve the exact seven figures, armor, equipment, paper texture, colors and composition from the start frame.

CAMERA
Locked camera with unchanged framing throughout.

TIMELINE
0.0-1.2 seconds: Keep the entire assembled scene visible. Show clear, gentle flutter in the commander's loose crimson cloak, soft sway in helmet crests and supporting cloaks, and subtle breathing. Keep feet planted, shield and spear steady. Existing scenery stays in place.
1.2-2.6 seconds: Move all seven figures downward together behind the foreground rocks and completely out of view. Preserve their spacing and each whole figure with its equipment. The commander's cloak travels with him while its loose edge keeps softly fluttering.
2.6-3.1 seconds: Slide the complete foreground rock ledge downward beyond the bottom edge.
3.1-4.0 seconds: Slide all remaining canyon cliffs and distant landscape layers downward out of frame, nearest layers first and farthest layers last, exposing the sky.
4.0-4.4 seconds: Slide the sun disc upward beyond the top edge.
4.4-4.8 seconds: Slide the remaining overlapping sky and cloud paper strips out through the side edges, revealing the single blank paper surface of the end frame.
4.8-5.0 seconds: Hold the exact blank paper endpoint. All illustrated scenery and figures have left the frame.

CONTINUITY
Each group leaves by a visible continuous slide with gentle acceleration. Preserve shapes and textures during travel; allow the specified cloth, crest and breathing motion. Keep other groups in place until their scheduled movement. Use edge exits and foreground occlusion rather than fades or shape changes. Every figure and object starts present and leaves once. Maintain one uninterrupted shot with no new subjects or props.

SOUND
Generate audible continuous mountain wind, natural cloth rustle and subtle armor movement. Keep this environmental sound bed steady across the clip, with wind continuing over the blank-paper ending.
