The prompt must specify:
- cinematic lighting
- 8k resolution

Scene: me, in a modern professional studio, leaning casually against an enormous three-dimensional typography sculpture that spells "[YOUR NAME]".

The sculpture:
- a striking pastel [your favorite color, e.g. pink], smooth matte surface, clean edges, faint studio reflections, premium architectural build quality
- monumental in scale, a physical object in the scene as much as a bold piece of design
- clearly readable and the dominant visual element, powerful and architectural, yet balanced with the subject

My pose:
- shot from the side, weight shifted naturally onto one leg: relaxed but confident
- arms crossed over my chest in an easy, calm way
- head tilted slightly down, gaze drifting softly off-camera, beyond the frame: composed, introspective, self-assured

OVERALL COMPOSITION
A minimalist high-key creative portrait on a pure, seamless white background. The center of the image is a large, crisp graphic capital letter "X", drawn with a thin charcoal-black outline with a faint bluish tint (clean, minimal, refined). The letter works as a mask: a photorealistic portrait of a woman shows through it. This is an advanced composite built on masking techniques.

THE PORTRAIT INSIDE THE MASK
Within the shape of the "X" there is a high-resolution close-up of a young woman whose hair is a warm, natural honey blonde.
- Position: her face sits centered right behind the upper point where the strokes of the "X" cross. Her head and shoulders are entirely inside the mask.
- Expression: calm and confident, looking straight into the lens.
- Features: clear and natural, dewy skin texture, lips with a pink tint.

KEY INTERACTION POINTS
- Her right arm (on the viewer's left) reaches out naturally; her fingers and part of her palm overlap and come out of the lower-left leg of the "X", as if gripping the edge of the mask.
- Her left arm (on the viewer's right) rises up and slightly inward; her hand appears through the inner gap where the strokes cross, upper-right of center, fingers resting lightly on the masked area.
- A further set of her fingers pokes out of the topmost right tip of the "X".

CLOTHING
A plain, clean, crisp white cotton T-shirt.

LIGHTING
Soft portrait light with a key light that draws gentle, soft-edged shadows (under the chin, around the neck) for depth and a slightly filmic quality. Soft, warm natural light on her hair.

TYPOGRAPHY
On both sides of the central "X", aligned with its center, lines of small, clean, sans-serif text in dark gray, perfectly readable.

TECHNICAL
- Style: minimalist graphic composite / creative fine-art portrait
- Palette: clean whites, warm neutrals (face and hair), soft grays (text)
- Depth of field: the portrait is very sharp; the hands and T-shirt have a natural photographic softness that contrasts with the razor-sharp edges of the "X"
- Resolution: high, with natural film grain in the portrait areas
- Lens and perspective: studio portrait shot head-on at eye level, prime lens such as a 50mm f/1.8

Character reference: [a complete physical description, for instance a young woman with green eyes, freckles and short auburn hair, dressed in a yellow raincoat].

New scene: [the new moment, for instance reading a book in a sunny café in Tokyo while a matcha latte steams beside her].

Consistency: keep the face and every physical feature of the character 100% identical to the reference. No facial drift: the same character, in a new moment.
Lighting: cinematic, like film photography.

Subject: a mature man with a beard, seen in side profile facing right, head a little lowered and eyes looking down with a thoughtful expression.
Light: deep low-key studio lighting. From the right, a narrow and soft directional light reaches only the front half of the face; the rest blends smoothly into black shadow. Strong chiaroscuro contrast that brings out the beard texture, the contours of the face and the skin detail, with a dramatic shadow falloff.
Background: completely black, with nothing to distract.

Reference: use my uploaded photo to reproduce, as faithfully as possible, my facial features and facial structure, my hair and beard style, my eye color and my skin tone. The result must be me in this biker-style portrait. Render the clothing (T-shirt, watch, ring), the motorcycle, the pose over the handlebars, the contemplative expression, the high-contrast black-and-white lighting and the film grain exactly as described below, so my identity and the look of the image merge seamlessly.

Style: black-and-white portrait, rugged and cinematic.

Subject: a man sitting on a classic motorcycle, cafe racer or bobber style.
Pose: he leans forward over the handlebars, thoughtful and intense. One hand rests on the headlight or on the handlebars; the other arm is bent and props up his head.
Expression: eyes looking off into the distance, contemplative and virile.
Wardrobe: a dark cotton T-shirt and dark pants (jeans are fine), a chunky wristwatch on one arm, a ring on one finger.
Grooming: medium-length hair with texture, casually tousled; a short, neatly kept beard that shapes the face.

Setting: an urban or street environment, softly blurred.

Lighting: natural and dramatic, side light with strong contrast; deep shadows and crisp highlights that sculpt the face and the arm muscles.

Camera: full-frame body with a prime portrait lens (for example 85mm or 105mm) for flattering compression and clean bokeh; aperture f/1.8 to f/2.8, so the depth of field is very shallow and separates him from the background; ISO 200-400 for natural light with a touch of grain; shutter 1/250s to 1/500s for sharpness.

Finish: subtle grain that recalls analog film.

Reference: use my reference image to keep the person's identity: the features and structure of the face, the tone of the skin, the hairstyle and hairline, grooming details and the relationships between colors.

Style: a premium cinematic studio portrait in black and white of a confident man, shot in a refined editorial manner, like a luxury magazine portrait or an executive branding photo. Sophisticated, timeless, masculine.

Pose: he faces the camera, composed, arms folded naturally over his chest. His body is turned slightly, not fully square to the lens, while his head comes gently back round to the camera: a natural three-quarter body orientation. Relaxed yet authoritative, professional, quietly confident.

Expression: calm and self-assured, facial muscles relaxed; a direct, steady gaze that holds strong eye contact with the viewer.

Grooming: tidy hair of medium length, combed with a clean side part; a short, well-kept beard (only if he has one) that defines the jawline and stays polished and professional. Features sharp but natural; skin texture visible, detail realistic.

Wardrobe: a perfectly tailored three-piece suit: a smooth dark gray blazer, a matching waistcoat, a crisp white dress shirt and a neatly knotted textured silk tie.
- The suit fabric looks clean, refined and smooth, with very little visible grain or weave.
- It catches the light softly, giving elegant tonal transitions instead of strong texture.
- The tailoring shows his physique: clear shoulder structure, chest shape and arm contours under the suit, for a sculpted, athletic look without exaggeration.
- The cloth hangs naturally, with smooth surfaces and controlled folds, for a premium luxury editorial feel.

Lighting: dramatic low-key studio light (chiaroscuro) from one soft directional source. It sculpts the face, hair and upper body, picks out the cheekbones, jawline and suit contours, and lets the shadows roll off smoothly into the dark areas.

Background: minimal, dark gray, deepening into a gradient at the center so the subject stands apart and the mood stays cinematic.

Finish: professional editorial photography, sharp focus, high contrast, shallow depth separation, ultra-detailed rendering. Balanced monochrome toning: deep gray-blacks, clean highlights, smooth midtones. Studio-quality finish, ultra-realistic, 8K detail.

Aspect ratio: 4:5 or 2:3.
