Prompt (original, unmodified)
Cinematic dark fantasy VFX, shot on ARRI Alexa 65, moody desaturated tones with high-contrast lighting, aggressive and epic rhythm. S1: Wide dynamic tracking shot. A female sorceress in tattered robes slides across an ashy, desolate battlefield, shielding a black raven. S2: Medium low-angle shot. She rolls to a stop, clutching the bird protectively. She gazes at the raven with fierce determination. S3: Close-up. She whispers a command, her face marked with battle grime and sweat. S4: Tight close-up. She crushes a glowing purple shard in her fist, her eyes flaring with violent energy. S5: VFX sequence. Shadowy veins crawl up her neck as obsidian liquid-metal armor rapidly envelops her. The raven transforms into a monstrous, armored gryphon. S6: Medium close-up. A spiked helmet slams shut over her face. S7: Epic wide shot. The fully armored knight stands beside the massive iron-clad beast amidst floating debris. S8: launch powerfully into the dark, stormy sky.
