Replace the ${…} placeholders with your values before using this prompt. See parameters and defaults below.

Use the face from the uploaded photo. Preserve the person's identity exactly: do not change or beautify the face shape, eyes, nose, lips, eyebrows, skin tone, or head proportions, and keep their age unchanged.

Scene: The flat rooftop of an old building in Batavia in 1928, beneath a pale daytime sky. A large red-and-white cloth is blowing in a strong wind directly in front of the lens.

Clothing: ${outfit:white closed-front jacket and black peci}.

Camera: 85 mm telephoto lens at an eye-level height of 160 cm. Position the cloth just 30 cm from the lens. The thin, translucent red cloth covers the left half of the frame, including a small part of the person's left cheek. Keep the right half of the face sharply and clearly visible. The head and chest fill 60% of the frame height.

Pose and expression: Lower the chin slightly. The person looks straight into the lens without blinking or smiling, with the jaw set. Their right hand grips the edge of the cloth and pulls it taut, forming diagonal folds. The right shoulder is forward, and the body is twisted 30 degrees away from the camera.

Lighting and finish: Sunlight passing through the red cloth casts a red tint on the covered part of the face; natural white light illuminates the other side. Use clear contrast and subtle film grain.

Avoid changes to the face, fully obscuring the face, cloth that clings rigidly like plastic, hands merging with the cloth, extra or missing fingers, damaged anatomy, watermarks, illustration, and CGI.

Parameters
