STYLE: Dark fantasy naval epic, cinematic realism with painterly finish, torrential rain, sea spray, lightning flashes lighting the scene, handheld energy on deck shots. Color grade: storm gray and slate, electric blue lightning, warm amber lantern glow.
SUBJECT: A colossal serpentine storm dragon with dark slate and silver scales crackling with blue lightning, long flowing whiskers, glowing electric blue eyes, coiled inside a thundercloud. A fleet of wooden warships with lanterns and torn sails on a raging ocean.
SHOT 1 (0 to 3s): Wide shot matching the reference image. The fleet climbs a massive wave. Lightning flashes reveal the dragon's coils moving inside the cloud. Slow drift forward.
SHOT 2 (3 to 6s): Handheld medium shot on the deck of the lead ship, 28mm lens, sailors hauling ropes as a wave crashes over the rail, the captain looking up, lantern swinging wildly.
SHOT 3 (6 to 9s): Low angle wide shot from the water, 18mm lens, the dragon uncoils and descends out of the cloud, its enormous body spiraling down toward the sea, lightning racing along its scales.
SHOT 4 (9 to 12s): Close-up tracking shot, 50mm lens, the dragon skims across the ocean surface past the ships, its scales inches from the hulls, a wall of spray and electricity, a mast snapping in slow motion.
SHOT 5 (12 to 15s): Extreme wide shot, 14mm lens, the dragon rises vertically out of the sea behind the fleet and roars, a dozen lightning bolts striking the water around it at once, the frame flashing blue white, ships silhouetted against the light.
AUDIO: Roaring wind and rain, creaking timber, crashing waves, sailors shouting, rolling thunder, crackling electricity, a roar blended with a thunderclap, a snapping mast, orchestral brass and driving drums.
