- **Subject Definition**: { "project_settings": { "task_type": "Single_Image_Contact_Sheet (9-Grid)", "aspect_ratio": "3:4", "resolution_mode": "High / Upscale (Crucial for face details in grids)", "batch_size": 1 }, "reference_config": { "usage": "Upload Reference Image -> Set Strength to 0.8-0.9", "purpose": "Define the 3x3 grid structure and character identity" }, "prompt_payload": { "structure_trigger": "A single contact sheet image containing a 3x3 photo grid matrix", "grid_logic": "9 distinct panels separated by thin white borders", "subject_consistency": "Same young asian woman in all 9 panels, identical outfit, identical hairstyle", "expression_variation": "9 different facial expressions ({argument name="expressions" default="winking, tongue out, surprised, laughing, serious, etc."})", "camera_angles": "Varied angles in each panel (high angle, low angle, straight on)", "visual_style": "Photorealistic, Studio lighting, Light grey background, K-pop idol photocard style" "festive_accents": { "option_1": "Wearing a small, cute red mini Santa hat", "option_2": "Wearing subtle brown reindeer antler headband", "option_3": "Wearing a simple red knitted scarf loosely" }, "visual_style": { "background": "Solid light grey or white studio background (No busy Christmas trees)", "lighting": "Soft studio photography light, clean shadows", "color_palette": "Grey, White, Skin tone, with a pop of Red" }, }, "negative_prompt": [ "One single portrait", "merged bodies", "distorted grid lines", "missing panels", "cartoon", "illustration", "different clothes" ] }, Over-the-shoulder conversational cinematic framing, captured on Nikon Z9 with NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens, Vibrant cinematic dual-tone lighting (neon cyan key + magenta rim edge), authentic skin micro-textures, true-to-life surface physics, ultra-detailed editorial photography
- **Framing & Shot Type**: Full-body dynamic shot (Over-the-shoulder conversational framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 85mm portrait prime lens at f/2.8 balanced subject sharpness with soft background bokeh
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Volumetric golden-hour rim light at 3800K with soft atmospheric haze
- **Color Grading**: Moody desaturated ambient palette with warm practical accents
- **Model Constraints**: Preserves natural skin texture; avoids oversaturated smoothing.

💡 **How To Customize**: Replace `{SUBJECT}` with your exact character or scene, or switch the Aspect Ratio to `9:16` for mobile reels and wallpaper formats.
