Full prompt our open models got

The short prompt, expanded into a shot description (look, camera, timeline, sound) before rendering. Closed models expand prompts themselves, so they get the short one.

Gritty cinematic look, shot on 35mm anamorphic with warm firelight against cold blue dusk, muted palette of ember orange, charcoal smoke and steel grey, heavy atmospheric mood. A knight in dented, soot-streaked plate armour rides a dark horse down the main lane of a timber village. Thatched roofs blaze on both sides, flames licking through shattered window frames, and smoke rolls low across cobblestones slick with rain. Glowing embers drift upward and sideways through the air. Behind the rider, a broken wooden cart lies on its side and a church bell tower stands silhouetted against a streaked orange-violet sky. Camera: low-angle tracking shot at ground level, dolly moving alongside and slightly ahead of the horse, keeping the knight framed against the sky as the camera rises gently. Timeline: [0s-2s] The knight enters frame from the left, horse's hooves splashing through puddles, embers swirling past the lens. [2s-4s] The tracking shot holds steady as the burning houses slide by on both sides, sparks scattering across the frame. [4s-5s] The knight reaches the centre of the lane, head turning slowly toward the fire, smoke parting around him. Audio: crackling flames, distant roof timbers collapsing, hoofbeats on wet stone, creaking metal armour, low wind through the smoke. Realistic anatomy, consistent subject throughout, no text or subtitles.
