Distorted Focus
Any aspect ratio
Use the uploaded image as the ONLY facial and identity reference. Preserve 100% exact facial structure, proportions, hairstyle, and grooming. Do not beautify, alter, or stylize identity. Create a cinematic, high-end surreal fashion editorial portrait poster. Composition & Framing Medium close-up (head and shoulders), 4:5 vertical. Subject positioned slightly right of center (rule of thirds). Face turned to the right side of the frame, gaze off-camera. Expression calm, introspective, confident (neutral, not smiling). Subject occupies ~65–70% frame with balanced negative space. Lighting (CRITICAL) Strong cinematic directional light from the right side. Face must be the brightest, sharpest focal point. Natural skin tones with soft glow and realistic texture. Left side falls into smooth soft shadow (no harsh cutoff). Subtle inner halo glow behind head for separation. High contrast with smooth tonal falloff. Background Soft radial gradient: deep slate/steel blue edges → lighter cool blue near face. Very subtle vertical streaks (rain-on-glass / blurred architectural lines). Shallow depth of field, clean atmospheric softness. Liquid Glass Distortion (KEY EFFECT) Left third: multiple thin vertical ripple slices overlapping the face. Each slice shifts and refracts facial fragments (slit-scan effect). Edges slightly stretched and compressed, organic fluid feel. Glossy, reflective, layered — not flat, not mirror-like. Right side: faint, soft distortion only near background and shoulder edge. Effect should feel controlled, premium, and dimensional (not chaotic). Styling Dark navy/charcoal blazer (matte, structured). Muted patterned scarf (ikat/batik style, cream + black tones). Slightly wet, natural length hair with loose strands. Clean skin, minimal facial hair or very subtle detailing. Typography “FOCUS” — large elegant serif, white, centered near bottom. “On Me” — smaller, clean sans-serif below. Balanced spacing, premium editorial layout. Rendering & Color Ultra-sharp facial detail, soft edge falloff. Smooth gradients, no banding or artifacts. Cool blue cinematic grading with warm natural skin contrast. Subtle film grain, high-end editorial finish. Keywords cinematic portrait, liquid glass distortion, slit-scan effect, refracted face, surreal editorial, premium fashion poster, shallow depth of field, cool tone grading
