Grok writes a director's brief before every take

Grok reads the frame, your marks and your line, and writes the exact prompt Imagine receives. You see it under the frame.

A clear photo of the person, front-lit, face large in frame. One per character. Goes to the engine as a reference image with the instruction to keep the exact person.

What the engine receives 892 chars

Night. A lighthouse on a black cliff, long exposure, 35mm film grain, one warm window.

DIRECTION (frame 1536×864, origin top-left; red = change, blue = move, green = keep, ink = structure):
- CHANGE — inside the red region over the upper part (560,40 560×300): storm building, lightning far off
- REFRAME — shift the framing right a short way (camera drifts right)
- KEEP — everything inside the green region over the left side (262,180 140×280) stays exactly as it is (lighthouse)
- STRUCTURE — an outlined shape over the upper right (1180,120 120×120): moon, low

COMPOSITION: image 1 is a rough pencil sketch of this shot — its strokes are placement and rough shapes, not finished art. Follow the layout and proportions and render the shot fully. Do not reproduce the sketch lines.

The marks are directions, not content: never render lines, arrows, circles, boxes, handwriting or labels.

Marks & keys

The grammar is the product. Marks steer the engine; they are never painted into the take.

Ink is structure — a sketch of placement, not finished art.
Red is change — circle what to rewrite, leave the rest.
Blue is motion — arrows from the edge are camera; arrows on a subject move it.
Green is keep — lock a face, a window, a silhouette.
