Jeremiah 48: 'Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel... I will send unto him wanderers, that shall... empty his vessels, and break their bottles.' In a Moabite wine cellar, a proud Moabite noble, large and central, watches in dismay as foreign wanderers pour out his great wine jars and smash them, red wine flowing across the stone floor. Golden light from the doorway, vineyard hills beyond. The men wear wrapped turbans or head-cloths over their hair. 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.
