David Pretends Madness at the Gate of Gath

Prompt

Psalm 34 (A Psalm of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed): At the great wooden gate of the Philistine city of Gath, David pretends to be mad to escape King Achish: wild-eyed, he scratches at the heavy doors of the gate with his fingers, his hair dishevelled and his cloak askew, while inwardly trusting the LORD who "delivered me from all my fears." David is large and central at the gate. King Achish, the Philistine king in rich robes and a plumed Philistine headdress, stands a few steps away with two guards, staring at him in disgust and waving him off. Bright harsh afternoon sun on the pale stone walls. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
