  "prompt": "Use case: stylized-concept\nAsset type: wide editorial hero, WebGL fallback, and cover artwork for an interactive culture article\nPrimary request: Create an entirely original cinematic scene called \"The Door That Wasn't There.\" A lone generic person stands at the threshold of a serene cobalt-blue paper city, facing three luminous white paths that feel like complete freedom. Pull the viewpoint far enough back to reveal that the beautiful city is a stage inside a vast matte-black projection chamber. Outside the supplied frame, partly concealed in darkness, an amber metal door has opened onto a rough sunlit landscape and a fourth amber path that was never offered.\nInput images: Images 1, 2, and 3 are project-owned style and story-continuity references only, not edit targets. Preserve their tactile paper-cut, screen-printed, architectural diorama language while creating a new composition.\nStyle/medium: high-end editorial key art, tactile 3D paper theater, museum-scale architectural model, rough screen-printed paper fibers, charcoal stone, matte cobalt card, oxidized amber metal, subtle cinematic depth and atmosphere\nComposition/framing: widescreen 16:9, deep one-point perspective, decisive silhouette at lower center, three blue-world paths clearly visible, hidden fourth amber path revealed at the edge of the supplied stage, strong thumbnail readability, enough dark negative space around the chamber for responsive crops\nLighting/mood: cold controlled cobalt light inside the model world; warm directional amber sunlight through the hidden door; restrained, intelligent, uncanny, visceral rather than horror\nConstraints: no text; no watermark; no logos; no copied film frame; no recognizable actor, character, costume, set, prop, or studio artwork; no green code rain; no red or blue pills; no sunglasses or black leather; no direct Matrix iconography; generic human silhouette only; original scene suitable for commercial editorial use\nAvoid: glossy sci-fi, cyberpunk neon, fan art, movie-poster pastiche, stock 3D render, decorative symbolism without physical spatial logic"
