Your prompt
Extreme wide establishing shot of {{location}}, the camera high and far back, drifting slowly sideways to the right across the scene at a constant rate. {{atmosphere}} moves continuously through the frame, giving the shot its life while the camera move stays almost subliminal. Low sun sits at frame left, raking across the scene so the near ground holds full contrast and colour while successive layers of distance soften and cool, the furthest edge fading to pale blue. Foreground shapes sit dark and sharp against the lit middle distance, building depth in three clear planes. Natural documentary colour, deep shadow detail retained, gentle highlight roll-off.
Audio: {{ambience}}, spread wide and constant. Over the top, {{sound-effect}}, arriving once and carrying across the distance. Aspect ratio: {{aspect-ratio}}.

Establishing shots live or die on the soundscape, so treat the ambience and the single sound effect as two distinct layers — a constant bed underneath, one specific detail on top that arrives once. Set aspect ratio in the interface. Negative prompt (a Vertex AI parameter, written as plain nouns): subtitles, captions, text overlay, watermark, people, warped horizon. This works well as the opening beat of a longer edit; generate two or three and choose the one whose atmospheric movement is most convincing, since that is what separates a living wide shot from a photograph with drift. That parameter is undocumented in the Gemini API, so if you are generating in the Gemini app or Flow you may have no negative field at all — in that case lean on the positive description alone.
