The prompts copy anything
Image style
Hand-drawn 2D meme-animation style with thick dark-brown wobbly outlines, flat muted colors (dark olive, charcoal, mustard yellow, navy, brown). Characters are simple, backgrounds are more detailed (luxury living room with dark green corner sofa, marble coffee table, wine bottle, window with gated driveway). Keep the same character designs in every scene. Use the reference image ONLY for the line style, outline thickness, color palette and background rendering. Do NOT copy the characters, faces, hairstyles or clothing from the reference. Characters must follow the character descriptions only.
Scene prompt example 1
Medium shot inside a cramped cardboard box apartment. The slouched, deadpan main character (stick-figure, white round face, curly brown hair, dark suit, red tie) holds a phone showing a red insufficient funds graphic. A tall, thin Landlord stick-figure (black top hat, right-eye monocle, red bow tie, curly mustache, holding a money sack) violently kicks the box door open, shouting.
Scene prompt example 2
Inside the same cardboard box. The deadpan main character in his suit holds his insufficient funds phone. A robotic Recruiter stick-figure (dark grey triangular skirt suit, black bob, thick rectangular glasses) sits stiffly behind a makeshift desk, holding an oversized brown clipboard and red pen, speaking.
Scene prompt example 3
Inside the box. The deadpan main character looks blankly at a heavily muscled, flexing stick-figure crypto-bro. The main character slouches, holding his phone with the red insufficient funds alert. No one speaks (voiceover only).
