Props Design Format Example

Below is the standard format for a single prop's {prop_name}/design.md. Each prop has its own directory and file.

# Old Pickup Truck

## Appearance

- Type: Vehicle
- Form: 1970s Ford F-150 pickup, boxy and rugged body lines, open truck bed
- Color/Material: Dark blue paint extensively peeled revealing primer and rust, metal body with visible dents
- Size/Scale: Standard full-size pickup, truck bed can seat a person or hold a guitar case
- Details: Spider-web crack on lower-left windshield, faded highway stickers on bumper, old blanket and ropes scattered in truck bed, left taillight wrapped with tape

## Narrative Role

The old pickup is the physical vessel of the traveller's drifting life, carrying all his luggage and memories.
The rust and scars on the body mirror the traveller's own experiences — worn but still running,
suggesting a "not perfect but never giving up" attitude toward life. It appears repeatedly in highway shots,
serving as both transportation and mobile home, one of the film's most central visual symbols.

## Image Settings

Prompt:
  A beat-up 1970s dark blue Ford F-150 pickup truck parked on the shoulder
  of a desert highway at golden hour. Peeling paint revealing rust and primer,
  cracked windshield, faded bumper stickers, old blanket in the truck bed.
  Cinematic, 35mm film, warm amber tones, wide shot.
  single object, no split screen, no multiple panels, no collage.
