Write the brief, not the picture

I want an image of: [ROUGH IDEA]

Do not generate anything yet. First write me the brief, separated into:

1. SUBJECT — what is literally in the frame, and where.
2. TREATMENT — medium, lens or brush, light, palette, era.
3. MOOD — in three words, no more.
4. WHAT MUST NOT BE IN IT.

Then give me the prompt as one paragraph, subject first, treatment second, with no adjective doing two jobs.

Then tell me the one thing about this brief most likely to come out wrong, and the phrase to change if it does.

What it is for

For getting a usable image prompt out of a vague idea. It separates the subject from the treatment, which is the distinction that makes an image prompt reusable.
