A3

The five-tier prompt ladder, submitted as one graded keyframe with the full log behind it.

Weeks 1–3 · Due 12 March 2027 · 3%

A keyframe is only as good as the log that can put it back.

What to do

Climb the full five-tier prompt ladder from this week’s exercise on one subject: a single line, then subject, setting, and mood, then the complete four-part grammar, then the tag vocabulary and negative prompt added on top, then shot size, camera angle, and a colour script layered over that. Keep the same subject through all five tiers, so what gets judged is what the grammar adds, not a new idea invented at each step.

What to submit

The top-tier keyframe with its full seed and parameter log, plus the four tiers beneath it, labelled in ladder order.

How it’s assessed

Grammar precision checks whether the top tier actually uses all four grammar elements plus a negative prompt, not just more words stacked on. Range across tiers checks that each lower tier is a genuinely simpler version of the same subject rather than a relabelled duplicate. Log quality checks that the log alone, with nobody standing next to it, reproduces the top-tier keyframe.
