Cinematic Establishing Shot Prompt for Krea
This is the Krea version of the cinematic establishing shot prompt: a wide opening frame that establishes place, time and mood before any subject appears — the first shot of a sequence. It is formatted the way Krea takes prompts best. Free — copy it, replace the bracketed parts, and paste it in.
The prompt
Push copies this prompt with a reference line naming your image, and downloads the image file — attach it in the model to complete the pair. This page stages the pair for you; it cannot upload into the model itself (sites cannot reach into each other), so the final attach happens there. The image is downscaled to at most 1024px and stored only in this browser, paired with this prompt. If browser storage is full, it is kept for this visit only.
The deliverable — and how to check it
Deliverable: one establishing image, 21:9, that reads as a location in a single glance: foreground element, midground subject ground, and background depth all present. Acceptance check: a viewer who has never seen the project can name the place type, the time of day and the mood in one sentence; no person is close enough to camera to become the subject.

Using this prompt with Krea
Krea's own image models (the Krea 2 image line and K3 for image-to-image) take descriptive natural-language prompts and generate in real time as you type and draw, so short iterative changes beat one giant prompt. This version is the full descriptive form; when working live in Krea, paste it, then adjust one phrase at a time and watch the canvas respond. For a consistent look across a set, Krea's style training builds a reusable style from your reference images — the same keyframe you attach here.
What this route costs — and how to pay less
Cost structure: subscription-bundled with a twist — one Krea subscription meters compute units across many hosted models (its own and partners'), so its price point is really a bundle price for several of the models on this page. The same prompt is pre-configured in this library for every major model, so you can run it on whichever route fits your budget — comparing the structures before you generate is a free way to save money.
Replace the bracketed placeholders — [LOCATION], [TIME OF DAY], [FOREGROUND ELEMENT], [WEATHER OR ATMOSPHERE] — with your own details before pasting.
