Create a highly detailed punk-rock editorial poster collage inspired by vintage 1970s–1990s underground punk zines, British punk culture, grunge photography, DIY protest posters, and rebellious street-fashion magazines. Use the uploaded reference photo as the identity reference for the central subject.

MAIN SUBJECT & IDENTITY:
Depict a young adult man with close-cropped black hair, piercing, expressive eyes, a subtle rebellious grin, and a confident, defiant demeanor. Preserve the recognizable facial identity, natural facial proportions, skin texture, hairstyle features, and expression of the person in the uploaded photo. He looks directly at the camera with an intense, slightly mischievous gaze.

POSE & CLOTHING:
Show the man facing the camera in a relaxed yet confrontational punk-rock pose, holding a rectangular black police-style booking plaque horizontally across his chest with both hands. Both middle fingers are raised in a provocative punk gesture. He wears a faded charcoal-gray vintage denim jacket with distressed edges, visible seams, metal buttons, and worn fabric texture, over a plain black T-shirt. Add a delicate silver ring, realistic hand anatomy, and a small metal chain hanging from black trousers. The pose should feel authentic, rebellious, raw, and editorial—not theatrical.

CENTER BOOKING PLAQUE:
Create a realistic black ribbed booking board with a thick, off-white rectangular frame, held tightly against the front of the torso. Use clean, legible white capital letters arranged in these three lines:

JAKARTA POLICE DEPARTMENT
09 23 24
8205

Make the lettering resemble a classic vintage booking plaque, using a monospaced institutional typeface and realistic white lettering on a matte black surface.

POSTER TITLE:
At the top of the composition, place an oversized, distressed, bright-pink headline:

THE REBELS SHOUT

Use vintage punk typefaces with bold uppercase letters, lumpy rough-ink texture, imperfect printing, slightly irregular letter edges, and smooth worn patches. Position the title on a large horizontal piece of black torn paper, secured with a large silver safety pin near one corner.

SURROUNDING PUNK TYPOGRAPHY:
Scatter bold, handwritten pink slogans throughout the surrounding collage. Use these exact phrases, with their spelling kept easy to read:

- CHAOS THEORY
- LOST GENERATION
- ANTI-SOCIAL
- RULES FOR FOOLISH PEOPLE
- PUNK IS NOT DEAD

Combine aggressive hand-painted brush lettering, rough marker strokes, distressed stencil type, and vintage thick sans-serif fonts. The text should feel rebellious, imperfect, spontaneous, and handmade. Keep the main title visually dominant, with the secondary slogans arranged around the subject without obscuring his face.

BACKGROUND COLLAGE:
Build a dense, layered background from overlapping black-and-white newspaper clippings, vintage concert ads, photocopied punk brochures, old music magazine fragments, columns of typed text, grainy black-and-white photos, torn paper edges, and distressed print textures. Include small abstract anarchist-inspired circular symbols, vintage safety pins, torn black paper shapes, bright-pink paint splatters, and rough photocopied textures. Add a narrow vertical strip along the left edge containing three small black-and-white portrait contact-sheet images of the same subject, each framed with a thin bright-pink border.

Make the collage appear physically assembled by hand using cut-and-paste techniques, adhesives, torn newsprint, and photocopier reproduction. Keep the layering dense but deliberate, with varying paper sizes, overlapping edges, subtle paper shading, and imperfect alignment.

COLOR PALETTE:
Use a very limited palette of black, charcoal gray, dirty ivory, old newspaper beige, grayscale photography, and hot pink or bright fluorescent magenta. Keep the main subject and most photographic elements monochrome. Use hot pink selectively for the title, handwritten slogans, border accents, and distressed paint markings. Avoid unnecessary colors.

PHOTOGRAPHIC TREATMENT:
Use high-contrast black-and-white analog portrait photography, authentic 35mm film grain, visible skin pores, natural facial imperfections, realistic messy hair strands, detailed denim textures, deep shadows, soft highlights, and gritty photocopy artifacts. The portrait should resemble an original printed photograph cut out with scissors and surrounded by an irregular line of thick white paper separating it from the background.

COMPOSITION & LAYOUT:
Use a vertical 9:16 poster format. Place a full-length or three-quarter-length portrait prominently at the center, framed from head to upper thigh.
