Ancient Chinese Cinematic Still

Use my uploaded portrait photo as the only identity reference. Preserve only my real facial features, face shape, skin tone, hairstyle, hairline, and overall personal vibe. Do not use the face of the person in the reference image. All other elements — including visual style, clothing, scene, composition, lighting, and mood — should follow the reference photo.

Generate an ultra-realistic cinematic vertical portrait. The subject is standing in a [setting], photographed from a low angle, in a half-body close-up. The person is slightly turned to the side, with the head naturally facing off to one side, not looking at the camera, showing a calm, restrained, story-driven expression. The background features ancient palace eaves, red walls, stone railings, and traditional roof structures, creating a sense of historical Chinese architecture.

The subject wears a [clothing], with subtle fabric texture and an overall dark color palette. [lighting], illuminating part of the face and creating strong light-and-shadow contrast, with one side of the face lit and the other side naturally falling into shadow. The hair is gently blown by the wind, with loose strands moving naturally, but it must still preserve the hairstyle characteristics of my uploaded portrait and should not be changed into someone else’s hairstyle.

The overall style should feel like a realistic cinematic still, with authentic photographic texture, shallow depth of field, slight film grain, muted colors, high-contrast lighting, and a subtle vintage tone. The skin must look real and natural, with normal skin texture. Do not over-smooth the skin. No plastic look, no anime look. The image should be clean and premium, with no text, no watermark, and no logo. Vertical 9:16, high detail.
