Use cinematic language when helpful.</li><li>Scene: Define the environment: time of day, location, background/foreground elements, mood, composition and lighting.</li><li>Visual Style: Establish the look and feel: lighting, colour-grading, lens effects, film stock, level of realism vs stylised, any elements you don’t want (negative prompt awareness).</li></ol>I have added prompt examples to the markdown file in the zip<h3 id="nsfw">NSFW</h3>This works with NSFW assuming you have a NSFW lora + good prompt.
