- **Framing & Shot Type**: Extreme close-up macro (Over-the-shoulder conversational framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 105mm macro detail lens at f/2.8 balanced subject sharpness with soft background bokeh
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Vibrant cinematic dual-tone lighting (warm key + cool ambient rim)
- **Color Grading**: Subtle film stock aesthetic with lifted blacks and soft highlight rolloff
- **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.
