ZHMacropsia Horror Metal Music Video Concept
A concept prompt for a 1986-style horror heavy metal music video built on macropsia (objects appearing oversized), defocalization blur, and iridescent color shifts that react to camera movement. It specifies a Lensbaby Velvet 56mm lens look and continuous camera motion for a disorienting, dark chamber aesthetic.
