Choosing Chinese Ink
What it buys you, and what it costs you. Both matter — you are locking every scene in the video to this.
Advantages
- Elegant and rare — almost nobody else uses it
- The negative space leaves captions somewhere to sit
- Serene mood suits long, slow watch times
Trade-offs
- Limited palette means everything can start to look alike
- Culturally specific; it fits the topic or it clashes with it
What every scene is told to look like
This line goes into the prompt for every single image in your video. It is why scene 3 and scene 27 look like the same production, and it is the whole job of a theme.
traditional Chinese ink-wash (shan shui) look, aged rice-paper background, flowing black brush strokes and misty mountains, a vermilion seal-stamp accent, gold leaf touches, calligraphic negative space, serene painterly framing
