}Generate with this prompt →The image is built on one impossibility — an aurora over the Sahara — so the aurora is written as 'the only light source', which forces the eerie palette. A slow crane up reveals the dune sea and makes the caravan small, which is the scale beat. Villeneuve as reference loads the patient, monumental framing; the negative prompt bans 'city lights, daylight' that would ground it in reality.
Paste the JSON straight into Veo 3 or 3.1, or hit Copy as prose for the flattened sentence version — both work, JSON just keeps the fields easy to tweak. To change the look, re-roll one field at a time (swap the camera_motion or lighting and keep everything else fixed). Want a different subject in the same style? Open it in the Veo 3 prompt generator and edit the fields.
