Canvas: Tall vertical poster, warm sunset-to-night palette, deep orange at the horizon fading into plum purple and dark indigo at the top, with heavy grainy risograph texture, aged paper speckles, slightly distressed ink, and cream-colored borders/details. Layout: At the top, show a small crescent moon on the left and a large bold hand-painted brush headline centered across three lines reading “HARBOR / LIGHTS / NIGHT MARKET” in rough cream lettering. On the upper right edge, add one narrow vertical cream banner with black Japanese calligraphy reading 「夏の思い出をここで」. Beneath the title, add a smaller Japanese subtitle “ハーバーライツ夜市” and an italic Spanish subtitle “Mercado Nocturno Luces del Puerto”. Below that, place a rounded rectangular date plaque with a cream fill and red outline reading “{date_and_time}” in tall navy condensed type. Main illustration: Fill the middle with a flat illustrated harbor night market scene. Include a dark navy skyline with many small yellow-lit windows, distant purple mountains, a tower resembling a harbor observation tower near the center, water with orange and gold reflections, and multiple strings of glowing paper lanterns hanging between poles and boats. Show exactly 2 large foreground boats: one on the lower left with a vertical sign reading 「夜市」 and silhouetted people eating or shopping, and one on the lower right with seated silhouettes under lanterns. Add smaller boats in the middle distance, cranes or mast-like poles, and scattered stylized clouds. Bottom feature cards: Along the bottom, create exactly 3 rounded rectangular illustrated cards with cream borders. Card 1 shows a steaming ramen bowl with egg, seaweed, noodles, and greens, labeled “STREET FOOD / 屋台グルメ”. Card 2 shows a black vinyl record with orange center and four small music-note icons around it, labeled “LIVE MUSIC / 音楽ライブ”. Card 3 shows a handmade ceramic cup or vase with blue glaze drips, labeled “LOCAL CRAFT / 手作り市”. Footer: Add a narrow dark navy footer strip with tiny harbor icons on the left, the line “{footer_details}” centered in cream, and a small anchor icon on the right. Visual style: Vintage Japanese tourism poster, screen-printed texture, limited color palette of burnt orange, ochre cream, navy, teal, plum, and black, imperfect registration, distressed edges, bold poster typography, nostalgic summer night atmosphere. Constraints: Keep all text legible and spelled exactly as specified. Use exactly 1 vertical calligraphy banner, exactly 3 bottom feature cards, and exactly 2 large foreground boats. No modern UI elements, no photorealism, no extra logos or watermarks. ``` ## Variables Replace each `{variable}` before you paste the prompt. | Variable | Label | Example | |---|---|---| | `{event_name}` | event name | Harbor Lights Night Market | | `{date_and_time}` | date and time | SAT · AUG 15 · 5PM–MIDNIGHT | | `{footer_details}` | footer details | Pier 7, Harbor District — Free entry — harborlights.example.com | ## About A detailed prompt for generating a vintage Japanese-inspired vertical night market event poster with harbor skyline, lantern boats, and three illustrated feature cards.
