Create a vertical 2:3, 4K UHD universal gothic-fantasy animated movie poster in sophisticated stylized 3D, with expressive character design, cinematic storytelling, and premium animated-film quality.

**Reference photo and identity**
Use the single uploaded photograph as the exclusive reference for the protagonist’s identity and original appearance. Do not request additional reference images. Preserve the woman’s recognizable facial identity and natural proportions, including her eye shape and color, nose, lips, cheekbones, jawline, chin, and distinctive features. Preserve her original hairstyle exactly, including haircut, fringe if present, parting, length, volume, texture, and overall silhouette. Preserve her original hair color, natural tones, and visible highlights exactly. Do not recolor, restyle, shorten, lengthen, straighten, curl, or otherwise modify her hair; do not invent bangs, curls, braids, extensions, or accessories, substantially change its volume, or substitute a generic hairstyle. Do not replace her face with a generic animated face or another person’s features.

Use the photograph only for identity, facial characteristics, hairstyle, and hair color. Create the wardrobe, pose, lighting, environment, composition, and artistic treatment independently from these instructions. Transform her into a sophisticated gothic 3D animated character while keeping her clearly recognizable. Stylization must enhance her identity, not replace it.

Use elegant stylized skin shading with delicate natural texture and refined subsurface scattering, adapted to her original complexion. Give her expressive, slightly enlarged eyes with detailed irises, natural eyelids, convincing reflections, and a captivating melancholic gaze while preserving her eye color and shape. Preserve the recognizable shape and proportions of her nose and lips. A muted burgundy lip tint may be used only if it complements the look without obscuring her identity. Maintain her recognizable face shape, cheekbones, jawline, chin, and natural proportions; apply subtle, elegant animation stylization without excessive deformation. Her expression is mysterious, introspective, quietly captivating, and melancholic.

Use premium animated-feature proportions: a slightly stylized head harmonious with her face and body, subtly enlarged eyes integrated naturally into the face, and a graceful, slightly elongated neck only if anatomically coherent and balanced. Avoid grotesque exaggeration, accidental deformation, caricature, or unnatural anatomy. Dress her in an elegant black ribbed sweater with refined fabric texture and a sophisticated gothic silhouette. Add a fine, understated dark chain necklace. Do not invent visible tattoos or permanent identifying marks absent from the user’s instructions.

**Environment and composition**
Set the scene in a mysterious gothic landscape at midnight. Place an enormous luminous full moon with detailed lunar texture and a soft atmospheric halo behind the protagonist. A towering twisted tree with bare, spiraling branches anchors the left side; an imposing haunted mansion with pointed roofs, crooked architectural details, and a few warmly illuminated windows occupies the right. Add layered blue-gray mist, subtle drifting particles, atmospheric perspective, and cinematic depth. Use midnight blue, charcoal black, cold moonlit silver, muted burgundy, pale moonlit highlights, and natural colors suited to the woman’s appearance.

Frame the vertical cinematic poster from the chest upward, with the woman centered in the foreground and her recognizable face as the primary focal point. The twisted tree anchors the left, the mansion the right, and the full moon frames her without merging into her silhouette. Establish cinematic separation between foreground, middle ground, and background with atmospheric haze and controlled depth of field. Prioritize the woman’s recognizable face, original hairstyle and hair color, full moon, mansion and twisted tree, then title and credits.

**Lighting and art direction**
Use soft cool moonlight on the face while preserving natural facial characteristics, plus delicate silver-blue rim lighting around the hair and shoulders that respects the original hair color. Add gentle frontal fill to retain facial detail, natural skin tones, and eye color, and a faint warm glow from the mansion windows. Render premium 3D materials, refined skin shading, detailed hair strands, realistic fabric texture, and cinematic volumetric lighting. The original art direction is a tasteful homage to Tim Burton’s gothic visual imagination: expressive silhouettes, whimsical darkness, and poetic macabre atmosphere, interpreted as an original high-end 3D animated fantasy. Aim for an elegant, mysterious, melancholic, slightly uncanny animated-film finish. Avoid changing identity, hairstyle, hair color, or natural eye color; generic animated features; excessively bulging eyes; grotesque proportions; unnatural anatomy; plastic-looking skin; photorealistic live action; cheap toy-like 3D; clutter; and illegible typography.

**Customizable poster text**
- Main title: ${movie-title}
- Subtitle: ${subtitle}
- Actress name: ${actress-name}

Place the title in the upper section in elegant gothic cinema lettering with refined serifs, dramatic spacing, and subtle silver highlights. Render it exactly as supplied, without spelling changes. If no title is supplied, create a short, memorable gothic-fantasy title appropriate to the image. Place the subtitle directly beneath it in small, sophisticated cinematic lettering with restrained spacing. Keep it legible and subordinate to the title. If no subtitle is supplied, create a concise, evocative line that complements the title.

Place professional Hollywood-style credits at the bottom, carefully aligned and legible:
- ACTRESS ${actress-name}
- WITH SPECIAL THANKS TO 𝕷𝖚𝖈𝖎𝖆
- PROMPT LAB

Replace the actress-name placeholder with the supplied name. If no name is supplied, use the woman’s first name if known; otherwise render ACTRESS only. Keep WITH SPECIAL THANKS TO 𝕷𝖚𝖈𝖎𝖆 and PROMPT LAB exactly as written. Do not translate, delete, replace, or modify either fixed credit, and do not invent additional actors, studios, production companies, or credits.

**Final checks**
Before finalizing, verify that the woman’s face, hairstyle, and hair color remain faithful to the single uploaded photo. Check the exact spelling of the custom title and subtitle, the supplied actress name, the fixed special-thanks credit, and PROMPT LAB. Create a visually striking gothic animated-film poster that preserves the woman’s identity, original hairstyle, and hair color, with refined 3D animation, expressive eyes, cinematic moonlight, and a haunting gothic environment. Allow creative freedom in the title, subtitle, and actress name, but never modify the fixed credits.
