Storyboard - A wide horizontal storyboard layout, 16:9 aspect ratio, arranged in a clean 3x3 grid with 9 panels total. Thin black borders separating each frame. Warm parchment/off-white background like a printed production board. At the top center, add the title: SPANISH SEAFOOD PAELLA — Production Storyboard. Each panel should have a small white label box in the top-left corner with the panel number in brackets: [1], [2], [3], etc. Under each panel, add a short italic serif caption starting with a two-digit number and an em dash. Visual style: High-end cinematic food photography, warm rustic Spanish outdoor kitchen, golden afternoon sunlight, open wood fire flame beneath a wide carbon-steel paella pan, smoke, rough wooden outdoor table, terracotta tiles, saffron-yellow rice, bright red and orange seafood, old Spanish kitchen tools in the background, realistic textures, caramelized socarrat, appetizing food details, premium commercial cooking video look. Panels: [1] Hands finely dicing ripe tomato and red pepper on a rough wooden board, golden olive oil in a small ceramic dish nearby, warm Spanish sunlight. Caption: 01 — Prepare sofrito base ingredients. [2] The sofrito of tomato, pepper, and garlic sizzling and slowly reducing in a wide carbon-steel paella pan over an open wood fire, smoke curling up. Caption: 02 — Fry sofrito in paella pan. [3] Dry bomba rice poured into the sofrito, stirred with a wooden spoon until each grain is coated and lightly toasted, shimmering in oil. Caption: 03 — Toast bomba rice in pan. [4] Bright saffron-infused golden stock being poured in a generous steady stream into the pan, steam surging dramatically as it hits the hot rice. Caption: 04 — Add saffron-infused stock. [5] Fresh mussels, clams, whole prawns, and squid rings arranged in a decorative circle over the simmering saffron rice, raw seafood glistening. Caption: 05 — Arrange seafood over the rice. [6] The paella pan on the open wood fire, rice cooking undisturbed, the edges beginning to caramelize into the deep golden-brown socarrat crust. Caption: 06 — Allow socarrat crust to form. [7] A wooden spoon lifting the edge of the rice to reveal the dark, crispy caramelized socarrat bottom — the sign of a perfect paella. Caption: 07 — Check the golden socarrat crust. [8] Pan removed from fire, lemon halves squeezed over the seafood in a golden mist of juice, fresh flat-leaf parsley scattered generously over the top. Caption: 08 — Rest, add lemon and parsley. [9] Final hero shot of the complete paella pan on a rough wooden outdoor table, afternoon Spanish light, steam rising, seafood glistening, wooden spoon beside it.
