## Prompt

```text
A cinematic, ultra-realistic night scene of a {artist} painting a large-scale {mural_subject} in a {setting}. The camera angle is slightly low, creating a dramatic, powerful perspective. The artist has medium-length, slightly messy dark hair and light stubble or a short beard, giving him a rugged, creative look.

He wears a loose white t-shirt and casual jeans, slightly oversized, with a relaxed streetwear vibe. His posture is focused and engaged as he stands close to the wall, actively spray-painting.

He is creating a massive, hyper-realistic mural of a woman’s face on a textured brick wall. The mural is incredibly detailed—smooth skin tones, realistic lighting, expressive eyes, and glossy lips—appearing almost like a photograph. Fine mist from the spray paint is visible in the air, catching light and adding motion and atmosphere.

The setting is a narrow urban alley at night, surrounded by tall buildings. The environment is gritty and textured—aged brick walls, paint splashes, subtle grime, and urban wear. Neon signs and distant streetlights cast vibrant reflections in teal, magenta, and blue tones, creating a cinematic, slightly cyberpunk mood.

Lighting is dramatic and layered: cool ambient light fills the alley, while warmer neon highlights create contrast. A subtle rim light outlines the artist’s silhouette, separating him from the dark background. The mural is partially illuminated, acting as a strong focal point.

Atmosphere includes light fog or mist, enhancing depth and making the lighting glow softly. The scene feels immersive, quiet, and artistically intense.

Depth of field is moderately shallow: the artist and mural are in sharp focus, while the background fades into soft blur with bokeh highlights.

Style: hyper-realistic, cinematic photography, street art aesthetic, ultra-detailed textures, high dynamic range, subtle film grain.

Camera details: 35mm or 50mm lens, f/1.8–f/2.8 aperture, low-light photography, slight low-angle shot, natural perspective.

Composition: vertical frame (4:5 or 9:16), subject slightly off-center, mural dominating the frame for strong visual storytelling.
