Prompt

Acts 11: Barnabas and Saul teach the new church at Antioch, where the disciples were first called Christians. Barnabas and Saul stand large and central in a sunlit colonnaded courtyard of a Syrian Antioch house, Saul speaking earnestly with an open hand while Barnabas rests an encouraging hand on his shoulder, a small gathering of Greek and Jewish believers, men and women, listening around them, softly blurred. Warm golden afternoon light, potted lemon trees. The listening 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.
