how this picture was made
Painted by @cf/bytedance/stable-diffusion-xl-lightning on workers-ai.cloudflare.com, 2026-08-30 00:16Z. Scene directed by @cf/meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-fp8-fast.
The scene the art director wrote
A crowded city street at dusk with people from various professions, a scientist in the center looking up at a large Caltech building, as a farmer walks by with a briefcase, and a suited figure in the background examines a tablet with a subtle glow, under a sky with a mix of blue and orange hues.
Inside the house scaffold (the fixed style + safety clauses), the full prompt the painter received
Sprawling painted editorial illustration for a newspaper front page: A crowded city street at dusk with people from various professions, a scientist in the center looking up at a large Caltech building, as a farmer walks by with a briefcase, and a suited figure in the background examines a tablet with a subtle glow, under a sky with a mix of blue and orange hues. Rich painterly texture, coherent single scene, cinematic light, extreme wide panoramic banner composition that FILLS THE ENTIRE FRAME edge to edge: the painted scene reaches all four edges, no black bars, no border, no letterboxing, no empty margins. Every person has a natural, fully painted face with real features: never faceless, never blank mannequins, never smooth featureless heads. All people are fictional and resemble no real public figure. Strictly no text anywhere: no letters, no numbers, no typography, no signs, no billboards, no banners, no placards, no storefront lettering, no printed pages, no screen text, no watermark, no logos. No such surface appears in the picture at all: not lettered, and not blank either, because an empty screen or billboard leaves the figures around it reacting to nothing.
