What it does
This prompt instructs the AI to generate a polished, Pixar-style 3D cinematic parade illustration set in bright daylight, featuring a giant floating balloon shaped like a specified animal and held by a specified group of joyful, expressive animal characters below. It defines the desired look (high-end rendering, realistic materials, soft global illumination, depth of field, vibrant colors, confetti, and lively city atmosphere) while enforcing constraints like avoiding humans, brands, and copyrighted characters, resulting in a family-safe, whimsical, story-ready scene suitable for animation concepts or social content.

Inputs
textInputs
Pass each text input using --input <key>=<value> flags.
| Variable key | Required? | Description | Defaults |
|---|---|---|---|
Balloon_animal |
Optional | The creature the giant parade balloon should resemble | Poodle dog |
Balloon_holders |
Optional | The group of animals holding the balloon below | Dog, cat, bunny, snake, bird,... |
Models and options
This skill's modality is: image.
To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "image".
How to run
Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "image" to discover valid models and available options:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Optional text inputs (use defaults if not provided by the human):
Balloon_animal(default:Poodle dog)Balloon_holders(default:Dog, cat, bunny, snake, bird,...)
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model
gemini-3-pro-image-previewand its available options. Look upgemini-3-pro-image-previewin thebetterprompt resourcesoutput (filtered to modality"image") and show itsavailableOptionsas:key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value(default)if it matches these defaults:{"aspectRatio":"3:4","resolution":"1K"}. - If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model
gemini-3-pro-image-preview, options{"aspectRatio":"3:4","resolution":"1K"}. Other models from the resources call are also available.
- Present the human with the default model
Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use thanksgiving-pixar-parade-balloon).
Command form:
betterprompt generate thanksgiving-pixar-parade-balloon \
[--input <key>=<value>] \
[--model <model>] \
[--options <options JSON>] \
[--json]
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate
--input <key>=<value>flag. - If the human does not mention a model, omit
--modeland BetterPrompt will use the default model:gemini-3-pro-image-preview. - If the human does not mention options, omit
--optionsand BetterPrompt will use the default options:{"aspectRatio":"3:4","resolution":"1K"}. - If the run times out, the response will include a
runIdyou can use to fetch the result later.
Example (using defaults shown above):
betterprompt generate thanksgiving-pixar-parade-balloon \
--input 'Balloon_animal=Poodle dog' \
--input 'Balloon_holders=Dog, cat, bunny, snake, bird,...' \
--model gemini-3-pro-image-preview \
--options '{"aspectRatio":"3:4","resolution":"1K"}'
