Documentary & Nature Video Prompts

四条观察式纪录片提示词：人物微纪录、野生动物行为、科普讲解、年代场景重建——自然光、原生环境声、不用旁白。

人物微纪录那条锁定主角的面部、发色、围裙与摊位布局，确保全片不走形；十八秒内分三个镜头铺排，指定精确的泰语台词，并把配乐限制到最后三秒的两个钢琴音。AVOID 清单排除表演痕迹、服装漂移、数字减龄、字幕、可辨识招牌与商标——这些都是会破坏纪录片可信度的元素。

# FLUX 3 documentary and nature prompts

Four original prompts for observational human stories, wildlife behavior, educational explanation, and period reconstruction.

## 1. The Last Bowl in the Rain — observational micro-documentary

**Use case:** human-interest documentary  
**Format:** 16:9, 18 seconds, native location audio

```text
SCENE: A tiny late-night noodle stall in a narrow alley during monsoon rain. An older cook in a faded teal apron prepares the final bowl for a tired bicycle courier beneath a clear umbrella. Keep the cook's face, gray hair, apron, wok, and stall layout identical. Natural skin, worn tools, wet concrete, practical tungsten light.

00:00-00:05 — Static wide view across the alley. Rain occupies the foreground. The cook lifts noodles; steam briefly hides his face. The courier enters from frame left and stops beneath the awning.
00:05-00:11 — Handheld medium close-up inside. The cook adds broth, slides the bowl forward, notices the courier is soaked, and turns a small desk fan away from the customer. Preserve prop positions.
00:11-00:18 — Close two-shot at counter height. The courier accepts the bowl with both hands and says softly in Thai, exactly: "ขอบคุณครับ". The cook nods once. Hold on rising steam and restrained smiles, then end on rain reflections.

AUDIO: Heavy rain on corrugated metal, wok flame, ceramic on steel, distant scooter, natural Thai dialogue. No narrator. Only two low piano notes in the final three seconds.

AVOID: staged acting, new customers, wardrobe drift, de-aging, impossible cooking, subtitles, readable signs, logos, watermark.

## 2. The Fox and the Tidal Clock — wildlife behavior

**Use case:** nature documentary, real-time animal behavior  
**Format:** 2.39:1, 20 seconds, long-lens observation

```text
GOAL: Show a coastal red fox using the receding tide to hunt crabs without anthropomorphism.

LOCATION: Temperate rocky coast at blue hour. Wet black rocks, shallow tidal pools, bladderwrack seaweed, low mist. One adult red fox with wet lower legs and a small notch in the left ear.

00:00-00:07 — Locked 400 mm long shot from a respectful distance. The fox walks along the same rock shelf, pauses, listens, and watches a pool. Wind moves fur and grass in one direction.
00:07-00:14 — Lower telephoto angle. The fox places one paw in the pool, waits, then quickly lifts a small shore crab onto the rock. The movement is agile but anatomically plausible; the crab does not change size.
00:14-00:20 — The fox releases the crab after it pinches the paw, shakes the paw once, and continues along the shoreline as a wave fills the pool. No comic reaction or human-like expression.

AUDIO: Distant surf, water in rock channels, wind, two gull calls, claw on stone, brief splash. No narration, music, roaring, or exaggerated animal vocalization.

CAMERA ETHICS: No impossible close approach, drone chase, bait, contact, or interference.

AVOID: multiple foxes, dry fur reset, fantasy colors, slow-motion attack, blood, changing tides between shots, text, watermark.

## 3. How a City Drinks Rain — visual explainer

**Use case:** educational video, infrastructure explainer  
**Format:** 16:9, 20 seconds, clean motion design with narration

```text
AUDIENCE: General public, ages 12 and up. Explain a rain garden in one clear causal chain.

VISUAL STYLE: Cutaway miniature of one urban street block made from realistic clay and translucent resin. Consistent camera angle, color key, and labels. Blue represents water only; green represents plants; tan represents soil.

00:00-00:06 — Rain falls on roofs and pavement. Blue water follows the gutter toward a curb opening. Exact label appears once: "1 · COLLECT".
00:06-00:13 — Camera moves below ground without changing street geometry. Water passes through three visibly distinct layers: mulch, sandy soil, gravel. Exact labels appear beside each layer, never overlapping: "MULCH", "SANDY SOIL", "GRAVEL".
00:13-00:20 — Water enters the ground slowly while plant roots remain visible. The street above stops flooding. Final text: "SLOW IT. CLEAN IT. SOAK IT." Show no claim that every pollutant disappears.

NARRATION: Calm neutral English voice says exactly: "A rain garden slows runoff, filters debris through soil and roots, and gives water time to soak into the ground."

AUDIO: Soft rain, subtle clay-texture Foley, quiet marimba pulses below narration.

AVOID: tiny unreadable text, extra steps, incorrect pipe connections, water flowing uphill, corporate logos, mascot characters, watermark.
```

## 4. Dawn Shift, 1912 — restrained historical reconstruction

**Use case:** museum interpretation, period scene  
**Format:** 4:3, 18 seconds, monochrome-tinted early film language

```text
GOAL: Reconstruct workers entering a textile mill in Manchester in 1912 without romanticizing hardship or imitating a specific archival film.

PERIOD LOCK: Brick mill exterior, tall multi-pane windows, damp cobbles, gas street lamps being extinguished, handcart, bicycles appropriate to 1912, wool coats, flat caps, ankle-length skirts, leather work boots. No plastic, modern road paint, zippers, electric signage, or contemporary vehicles.

SHOT: Single fixed camera at shoulder height, 35 mm-equivalent field of view. Workers cross naturally from both depths but do not look at camera. A woman secures a loose lunch tin strap, a young man yields space to a handcart, and the mill gate opens inward. Chimney smoke moves with the same light wind as clothing.

IMAGE CHARACTER: Slightly desaturated warm monochrome, gentle gate weave, restrained grain and exposure flicker. Human motion remains natural; do not simulate extremely low frame rate or damaged-film scratches over faces.

AUDIO: Contemporary reconstruction, not fake archival audio: boots on wet stone, bicycle freewheel, distant machinery starting, gate hinge, subdued morning conversation with no intelligible dialogue. No score or narrator.

AVOID: cheerful factory-ad tone, child labor spectacle, soot-covered caricatures, modern props, famous faces, fabricated date cards, logos, watermark.
