  "tagline": "A slow shan-shui landscape in graded ink on rice paper, with a rising moon, drifting mist and a vertical title with a red seal.",
  "description": "Calm, contemplative style for festivals, poetry, tea and craft brands, travel and mood pieces. Layered mountain ridges in graded ink (near peaks almost black, far ridges pale blue-grey) built from SVG paths with feTurbulence stippling and displacement for ink bleed, mist bands and clouds drifting between them, a pale moon rising behind the far range, a plum branch that inks itself in, a few birds and a small boat, and a vertical serif title with a small red seal. Captions fade in softly, with Chinese above and English below. Nothing snaps.",

  "guide": "- Warm rice paper (#f3eddd → #d9cfb6 radial) with a multiply fiber noise (feTurbulence baseFrequency \"0.012 0.35\") and a faint vignette. Ink colours only, plus one red #b23a2c for the seal and blossoms.\n- Build 3 ridge layers from concave-sided peak paths filled with a vertical gradient (opaque at the tip → transparent at the base): far #8fa2aa with a heavy 3.5px blur, mid #4f5d60 and near #141614 with an feTurbulence alpha stipple plus displacement (scale ≈22) for ink bleed. Put blurred mist bands between layers.\n- Parallax is linear and small: far −40px, mid −90px, near −150px over the whole piece, plus a 5% sine.inOut camera push. Moon (pale disc with a warm glow) rises ~300px behind the far range.\n- Add 2–3 living details: a plum branch drawn with dashoffset strokes and red five-petal blossoms, a few V-shaped birds flapping (scaleY yoyo, finite repeat), a small boat drifting.\n- Title is 3–4 characters vertical (Noto Serif SC 700, ~104px) on the right third, revealed character by character from blur, with a 64px red seal underneath. Captions: Chinese 38px tracked 0.32em, English Cormorant Garamond italic 30px below.\n- Use only sine.inOut, power2.out or linear eases, with durations of 1s or more. No hard cuts, no bounce, no scale pops."
