[Character Pose and Expression] Pose and Composition: A frontal seated medium full-length shot capturing the person sitting in front of a railing against a sunset city background, with the upper body facing forward and legs leaning diagonally. Posture: The right hand is placed next to a large {flower_color} paper flower object, and the left hand is placed comfortably on the leg while leaning the upper body slightly forward. Expression: A playful and chic expression, looking straight into the camera over the lenses of lime green tinted sunglasses slightly lowered below the bridge of the nose. It creates a kitschy yet sensuous aura unique to City Pop. [Character Outfit and Props] Outfit: Top: A simple pure white sleeveless rib knit tank top that reveals slender shoulders. Bottom: Classic high-waisted light blue denim pants with silver button-fly details at the waist and slight distressed scratches. Props: Tinted Sunglasses: Round retro mini metal frame tinted sunglasses in lime green tones provide a playful Y2K point. Giant Paper Flowers: Intense orange on the left and calm mint blue handmade paper rose objects on the bottom right are placed to maximize fairy-tale sensibility. [Character Hairstyle and Makeup Details] Hair: A long, calm straight hairstyle in deep brown/jet black tones with a 5:5 middle part falling softly below the shoulders. Makeup: Neatly refined clean porcelain skin base even under lights, pointed with vivid and moist red-orange lip makeup. [Lighting and Light Direction] Light Source: A dual production of cool blue ambient light shining from the bottom and front of the subject and warm sunset orange/red light spreading from the top of the background. Effect: Cool blue projection light lingers near the person's lower body, denim pants, and red brick railing, while warm sunset orange highlights are formed over the upper body and background building screens, creating a sensuous cool/warm complementary contrast. [Texture and Color Mood (Core Texture Details)] Color: A 'Y2K City Pop Sunset Rooftop' color mood where the cool blue of the front lighting and bottoms, the intense sunset orange of the background and props, the pure white of the top, and mint blue harmonize. Texture Details (Special Analysis): Paper Flower Texture: The 3D, bumpy, and hard paper/foam texture of the large paper flower objects and curved overlapping layered grains. Denim and Cotton Texture: The dense vertical ribbing of the white tank top and the seams of the high-waisted denim pants, button metal texture, and washed cotton grain. Brick Railing Texture: The bumpy and rough matte texture of the red facade bricks used for the bottom railing. [Film and Camera Lens Depth, Angle] Composition and Angle: A horizontal eye-level frontal shot matched to the eye level of the seated person. Features: Sharp focus through a standard portrait angle clearly captures the person's pupils, tinted sunglasses frames, tank top texture, and even the layered edges of the orange paper flowers, showing undistorted plastic beauty. [Background and Studio Layout Elements] Space: A sensuous set rooftop background with a panoramic city view at dusk, silhouettes of apartments and utility poles. Details: The retro red brick railing the character is sitting on, the mint/orange paper flowers placed in front, and colorful ethnic pattern cushions are harmoniously set, conveying a cozy yet narrative sense like a scene from an indie pop video. ``` ## Variables Replace each `{variable}` before you paste the prompt. | Variable | Label | Example | |---|---|---| | `{character}` | character | Image 1 | | `{signature}` | signature | CHAse | | `{flower_color}` | flower color | orange | ## About A comprehensive prompt for creating a stylized Y2K-era city pop portrait of a woman on a rooftop, featuring intricate details like giant paper flowers, neon lighting, and high-quality textures.
