Main AI Prompt

Main Prompt Content
"A cinematic vertical portrait of a {argument name="subject" default="young woman"} shown from the chest up in a close half-body composition, positioned slightly right of center, with her body turned to the right and her head turned back toward the camera in a restrained over-the-shoulder pose. She has {argument name="hair color" default="long black hair"}, loose and slightly messy, being blown strongly through the frame so many strands lift outward and sweep across the air around her face and shoulders. Her visible styling is elegant and minimal: a dark thin-strap slip dress or camisole exposing the shoulder line, collarbone, and upper back, with a sheer black off-shoulder wrap or translucent outer layer slipping down the arms to create a soft dark framing shape around the lower body. The mood is cold, quiet, mysterious, and wistful, with a high-fashion cinematic realism rather than glamour polish. Use dramatic backlighting from the upper left, creating a bright halo along the hair, shoulder, and edge of the body, while the front of the figure stays mostly in shadow with only extremely soft fill light. The face is largely obscured in darkness and soft haze, emphasizing silhouette, neck, ear, shoulder, and luminous hair edges more than facial detail. The background is a dark gray to near-black empty space with 2 clear environmental elements: floating dust-like particles and soft circular bokeh light spots scattered mostly on the left side and around the hair. Overall color grading is low saturation with cool blue-gray shadows and slightly warm skin tones for subtle warm-cool contrast. Add diffused bloom, misty atmosphere, faint film grain, soft vignette, and shallow depth of field. Keep the eyes and lips de-emphasized or hidden in shadow, avoid hard frontal light, avoid bright busy background details, avoid cartoon styling, avoid oversharpening, and avoid plastic skin texture."
