Photorealistic visual world-building for ‘The City in Haze’ — a moody, poetic urban space seen through the eyes of Liora, ‘the girl who sees rainbows’. The city is everyday, not dystopian — familiar but quietly beautiful. Streets are slightly wet, skies are grey or overcast. Surfaces reflect light: puddles in alleyways, windows of buses at night, damp rooftops at dawn. Key locations: Empty laundromats glowing with fluorescent light Rooftops in blue morning haze Rainy corners with blurred traffic lights Bus windows with soft interior glow and reflections A puddle catching the reflection of a single blooming flower A secret garden tucked behind buildings, overgrown and peaceful Natural lighting: Mostly dawn, dusk, or rainy daytime. Fringe times only — no harsh midday sun. Rare moments of golden light breaking through = emotionally symbolic. Atmosphere: Reflective, poetic, emotionally grounded. Slightly misty or rainy surfaces add texture. The city feels lived-in but not chaotic. Photorealistic style with high detail. Moody color grading. Soft depth of field. Light should subtly mirror emotional tone — from cool to warm over time. Avoid cyberpunk or fantasy – this is grounded, human, and emotionally cinematic. See more
