The prompt behind this image
Copy the exact prompt behind Cinematic Selective Color Portrait, or open it in the studio and make it yours.
Create a dark, intense cinematic close-up portrait of the {argument name="subject" default="uploaded man"} with messy, styled hair with loose strands, staring over his shoulder into the camera with a deep, serious, intense sad look. His body turned to the side, left arm is raised accross the face to the ear with elbow extending upward and forward covering his face only one eye visible, creating a strong layered pose. He wears a {argument name="clothing" default="dark teal-blue rolled up sleeve open silk shirt"}, clean chest slightly visible. DSLR quality, shot taken from side while he is looking. Keep the face mostly desaturated with natural skin tones while the shirt remains rich deep teal-blue, creating a selective-color cinematic look. Dramatic low-key side lighting, deep black shadows, subtle film grain, high contrast, moody black background with lower foreground, slight vignette, realistic skin texture, shallow depth of field, editorial fashion photography, 85mm lens, ultra-realistic, atmospheric, 4:5 portrait. Maintain the face same as the uploaded photo.

| If the result… | Why | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| The result drifts from the preview | Too many fields changed at once. | Reuse Cinematic Selective Color Portrait as-is first, then change one group — subject, light, or setting. |
| The model over-stylizes the scene | The prose prompt leaves finish and camera underspecified. | Add one camera or lighting sentence and stay on Gemini 3 Pro Image Preview. |
