# User Prompts for AIVA

## Prompt 1: Cinematic Trailer Score
"Compose a 90-second cinematic trailer score for a sci-fi thriller film. The piece should start with an eerie, minimalist texture — sustained strings with a glass-like shimmer and distant, low brass pulses. At 30 seconds, a ticking clock motif enters with pizzicato strings, building suspense. At 50 seconds, the full orchestra erupts with a powerful, dissonant brass theme over driving percussion. Include a 3-second silence at 70 seconds before the final impact section: massive taiko drums, blaring horns, and tremolo strings. End with a single, fading piano note. Key of D minor, moving to Bb minor for the climax."

## Prompt 2: Fantasy RPG Exploration Theme
"Create a loopable exploration theme for a fantasy RPG overworld. The piece should feel wonder-filled and adventurous, evoking vast green landscapes and ancient ruins. Instrumentation: solo flute carrying the main melody, accompanied by harp arpeggios, gentle strings, French horn countermelody, and light woodwind textures. Tempo: Andante (80 BPM), key of F major. The loop should be 2 minutes with a seamless transition from end back to beginning. Include variations — the second pass of the melody should introduce oboe and add light percussion (finger cymbals, frame drum). The mood should be hopeful and curious, not heroic."

## Prompt 3: Romantic Piano Sonata
"Compose a piano sonata movement in the style of Chopin's Nocturnes. Solo piano, key of Db major, tempo Rubato/Andante cantabile. The right hand should carry a singing, lyrical melody with ornamental turns and grace notes. The left hand should play a flowing arpeggiated accompaniment with occasional bass octaves for depth. The piece should be in ternary form (ABA): Section A is tender and intimate, Section B shifts to Bb minor with more passionate intensity and wider dynamic range, and the return of A should be embellished and more emotionally charged than the first time. Include a brief cadenza before the final resolution. Duration: 4-5 minutes."

## Prompt 4: Corporate Brand Anthem
"Create a 60-second corporate brand anthem for a tech innovation company's product launch video. The piece should communicate progress, trust, and excitement. Start with a clean guitar pattern and soft pads (0-15s, product intro). Build with strings and light percussion (15-30s, features showcase). Add full orchestral swell with inspiring brass melody and driving rhythm (30-50s, emotional peak / testimonials). Final 10 seconds: resolve to a warm, confident ending with the melodic hook restated simply — suitable for logo reveal. Key of C major, tempo 120 BPM. The piece should feel modern, warm, and optimistic — not generic corporate stock music."

## Prompt 5: Ambient Meditation Soundscape
"Compose a 10-minute ambient meditation piece designed for deep relaxation and mindfulness. Use sustained string pads with very slow harmonic movement (one chord change every 30-45 seconds), gentle singing bowls, soft granular synthesis textures, and occasional solo cello notes emerging from the texture. The harmonic language should be modal — Dorian or Mixolydian — avoiding tension and resolution patterns that demand attention. Dynamics should stay within pp to mp range with no sudden changes. Include subtle field recordings: gentle rain, distant wind, or soft water sounds woven into the texture. The piece should feel timeless — the listener should lose track of time."

## Prompt 6: Epic Choral Battle Anthem
"Compose an epic battle anthem with full orchestra and choir for a medieval strategy game's key campaign battle. Latin choir singing powerful, rhythmic chanting in the verses and soaring sustained notes in the chorus sections. Full orchestra with emphasis on: low brass (trombones, tubas) for power, timpani and war drums for rhythm, string ostinatos for driving energy, and trumpet fanfares for the heroic theme. Key of C minor with a triumphant modulation to C major for the final victorious section. Tempo: Allegro (140 BPM). Duration: 3 minutes. The emotional arc: ominous preparation → intense clash → desperate struggle → triumphant victory."
