Turns a personal photo into a typography-driven, film-poster-style image in muted Morandi tones, keeping the photograph itself unaltered.

  • Turning a travel, architecture or street photo into a movie-poster-style image
  • SKILL.md covers Asset, 1. Lock the photographic plate, 2. Write a cinematic… and 3. Choose one theatrical…, plus 10 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

This skill builds a cinematic poster from a supplied photograph using only typography, hierarchy, negative space, alignment and selective depth. The photo is locked as a source plate: portrait images default to a 3:4 ratio reached by the smallest safe crop, never stretched, and nothing outside the lettering masks is regenerated, retouched, regraded or sharpened.

Before choosing words or fonts, the agent writes a composition map covering the hero subject, the order in which the viewer should notice things, quiet fields for type, directional axes, areas that small text must avoid, and a dominant, supporting and accent color. It then picks one theatrical layout, with an optional poetic byline, tagline, metadata and fictional credits. A bundled reference image supplies paper and ink cues only. The title must be original and must not copy a real film poster, and stars or decorative collage symbols are left out.

When your agent uses it

  • Turning a travel, architecture or street photo into a movie-poster-style image
  • Adding film-title typography to a photograph without altering the photo
  • Designing a poster with negative-space text placement and subject occlusion

Example prompts

  • “Make a cinematic poster from my skyline photo with a title in muted Morandi colors.”
  • “Turn this portrait into a film-style poster with a short tagline and fictional credits.”
  • “Put a poetic title behind the lighthouse in this photo so the tower partly covers the text.”

Requirements

  • A source photograph from you

Workflow steps

11 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Lock the photographic plate
  2. Write a cinematic composition map
  3. Choose one theatrical layout archetype
  4. Build an adaptive cinematic copy deck
  5. Make the title a proprietary film mark
  6. Establish an adaptive cinematic hierarchy
  7. Direct the relationship between type and image
  8. Construct cinematic small type
  9. Use tactile material sparingly
  10. Weave the layers
  11. Build the generation prompt

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b9edb83. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • zeejayzine.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Morandi Cinematic Poster loads about 4.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 156 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,354 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~156
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,354 words (~4,259 tokens).

“Create a source-faithful cinematic photography poster in which the photograph, title, and small type behave as one composition. Build the film-poster effect entirely through typography, hierarchy, negative space, alignment, and selective depth. The result may evoke theatrical key art without…”
