Adapt the subject, keep the camera. These reusable prompts are based on the examples; your results will vary.

Create one photorealistic 16:9 cinematic film still, edge to edge.

SUBJECT
Choose the main subject's appearance and clothing, or optionally attach an identity reference. When a reference is supplied, preserve that person's identity and original outfit without copying its background or layout. The scene and camera placement below take priority over showing facial detail. Preserve the reference's apparent age, facial features, hairstyle, natural skin tone, proportions, garment cut, colors, materials, footwear, and worn accessories wherever visible. Do not copy its pose, handheld props, lighting, or color treatment. Without a reference or a supplied subject description, choose a scene-appropriate adult and outfit.

SCENE AND CAMERA
Capture one photographic film still of the subject walking briskly across a nearly empty railway platform in strict side profile. Use a 50mm camera at waist height about seven meters away, panning smoothly with their left-to-right movement at an exposure around 1/30 second. Keep the head and torso comparatively sharp while allowing believable slight blur in the moving feet and natural arm swing. Platform pillars, shuttered kiosks, and wall panels streak gently in a consistent horizontal direction; keep the horizon level. The subject carries a small plain parcel in one hand and glances forward toward an off-frame exit, with no theatrical running pose. Leave more space ahead of their movement than behind. Late-afternoon sun from the open side of the platform lights the face and parcel, while the station interior stays cooler and darker. Preserve the chosen outfit or identity reference outfit's cut, colors, and recognizable fabric despite motion. A single continuous exposure with restrained panning blur, no duplicated limbs, repeated figures, radial zoom blur, speed lines, or montage.

Capture the primary interpretation of the scene exactly as described, preserving its specified camera geometry and narrative.

COLOR GRADE
Apply a rich, naturalistic cinematic grade: deep steel-to-slate blues, luminous golden accents, grounded olive greens and warm stone neutrals where those colors occur. Preserve the scene's light sources and time of day, natural skin tones and recognizable garment colors. Keep firm contrast, deep readable blacks, detailed midtones, controlled bright highlights and crisp photographic texture. Use only subtle grain. Avoid washed blacks, artificial teal-orange separation, excessive HDR, plastic skin, heavy grain, broad bloom and diffusion haze.

IMAGE CONSTRAINTS
No writing, letters, numbers, signage, branding, logos, labels, watermarks or captions anywhere in the image. Keep relevant surfaces plain and unlettered. One separate photograph only; no border, montage, split screen or contact sheet.
