Technical Classroom Portrait | Cinematic Academic Photography

Use my uploaded photo as the ONLY reference image.

Create a highly photorealistic professional photograph of the SAME PERSON from my uploaded reference photo, preserving their identity exactly, but place them into the following scene and recreate the described composition, pose, styling, lighting, camera perspective, and color grading.

IDENTITY PRESERVATION — HIGHEST PRIORITY:

The uploaded image is the ONLY identity reference.

Preserve the person's exact recognizable identity and natural appearance.

Keep:

- exact facial structure
- face shape
- facial proportions
- eyes and eye shape
- eyebrows
- nose shape
- lips and mouth
- jawline
- cheekbones
- natural skin tone
- natural facial asymmetry
- distinctive facial characteristics
- natural age
- natural gender presentation
- recognizable identity

Do NOT turn the person into a generic model.
Do NOT replace or redesign their face.
Do NOT beautify their face.
Do NOT make their facial features more symmetrical.
Do NOT change their ethnicity or natural appearance.

The final image must clearly look like the person in my uploaded photo.

SCENE:

Place the person inside a modern university classroom, engineering classroom, technical laboratory, or academic presentation room.

The person is standing in front of a large whiteboard covered with realistic handwritten technical notes, equations, engineering diagrams, measurements, arrows, annotations, and rough sketches.

The environment should feel like an authentic classroom where a technical presentation or lesson is taking place.

Include subtle background elements such as:

- whiteboard
- handwritten equations
- engineering drawings
- technical documents
- classroom furniture
- desks or chairs
- subtle students or silhouettes in the lower foreground
- realistic indoor architectural details

Keep the background visually understated so the person remains the primary subject.

POSE AND BODY LANGUAGE:

Create a natural academic presentation pose.

The person stands upright with a confident but relaxed posture.

Their torso faces generally toward the camera while their head turns slightly toward one side.

Their eyes look slightly away from the camera with a calm, focused, intelligent expression.

One arm is raised toward the side of the whiteboard, with the hand naturally holding a whiteboard marker as if explaining or writing something.

The opposite arm extends naturally forward and slightly outward, with the hand holding another marker or small writing object.

Reproduce realistic:

- shoulder positioning
- elbow angles
- wrist positioning
- hand placement
- finger anatomy
- body proportions
- natural posture

The pose should feel candid and spontaneous rather than staged.

Adapt the pose naturally to the person's actual body proportions and gender from the uploaded reference.

WARDROBE:

Give the person a sophisticated contemporary academic/professional outfit.

Use a clean white button-up shirt combined with dark charcoal or black trousers and a dark charcoal knitted sweater/cardigan casually draped over the shoulders.

The clothing should have:

- realistic fabric texture
- natural wrinkles
- believable folds
- subtle stitching
- realistic thickness
- relaxed professional fit

Adapt the clothing naturally to the person's gender and body type.

For a male subject, use a masculine interpretation of the outfit.

For a female subject, use a naturally feminine interpretation while maintaining the same overall academic aesthetic, color palette, and visual concept.

Keep accessories minimal and realistic, such as a simple necklace, bracelet, watch, or glasses if appropriate.

CAMERA AND COMPOSITION:

Vertical 4:5 portrait photograph.

Medium-full body framing.

The person occupies most of the frame while enough of the classroom remains visible.

Position the subject approximately in the center of the composition.

One raised hand and marker should appear toward the upper-left region of the frame.

The opposite hand should extend toward the lower-right region.

The whiteboard should fill much of the background.

Camera approximately at chest-to-eye level with a subtle natural perspective.

Use a realistic full-frame camera with approximately 50mm–70mm lens characteristics.

Moderate depth of field.

The person's face, eyes, hands, and clothing should remain sharp while the distant classroom background becomes slightly softer.

LIGHTING:

Use soft natural indoor daylight coming through large classroom windows.

Create:

- soft facial illumination
- gentle shadows
- natural highlight rolloff
- subtle directional light
- realistic ambient illumination
- balanced exposure

Avoid dramatic studio lighting.

Avoid harsh flash.

Avoid neon lighting.

Avoid excessive HDR.

COLOR GRADING:

Use a muted cinematic color grade.

Overall palette:

- neutral white
- cool gray
- charcoal
- subtle muted tones
- natural skin colors

Use slightly cool environmental tones contrasted with naturally warm skin.

Keep saturation restrained.

Use soft cinematic contrast with gently controlled highlights and shadows.

The final image should feel like a frame from a premium contemporary film or high-end editorial photograph.

Do not make the image overly colorful.

Do not use an obvious social-media filter.

SKIN REALISM — CRITICAL:

The person's skin must remain completely natural.

Show:

- realistic pores
- fine facial texture
- subtle imperfections
- natural under-eye detail
- realistic lips
- natural skin variation
- individual hair strands

ABSOLUTELY NO:
plastic skin
waxy skin
porcelain skin
airbrushed skin
beauty filter
excessive smoothing
fake skin glow
over-retouched face
CGI skin
perfect artificial complexion

Do not make the person look like an AI fashion model.

HAIR:

Preserve the person's natural hairstyle and hair characteristics from the uploaded reference image.

Keep realistic hair density, texture, volume, flyaway strands, and natural imperfections.

Do not unnecessarily redesign the hairstyle.

HANDS AND ANATOMY:

Hands must be anatomically correct.

Five fingers per hand.
Correct finger proportions.
Natural joints.
Natural grip on the marker.
No fused fingers.
No extra fingers.
No distorted wrists.
No malformed arms.

PHOTOGRAPHIC REALISM:

The final result must look like an authentic photograph captured with a professional camera.

Highly photorealistic.
Natural skin.
Natural hair.
Realistic anatomy.
Realistic hands.
Realistic fabric.
Realistic classroom materials.
Realistic whiteboard writing.
Natural lens characteristics.
Subtle photographic grain.
Natural depth of field.
Realistic shadows and reflections.

Do not create an illustration, painting, anime character, 3D render, CGI character, or artificial-looking AI portrait.

FINAL INSTRUCTION:

Use the uploaded photo ONLY to preserve the person's identity.

Everything else should be newly generated according to this prompt.

The final photograph should look as if the SAME PERSON from my uploaded image was genuinely photographed while giving a technical presentation inside a modern classroom, with the exact cinematic academic aesthetic, composition, pose, muted color grading, and photographic atmosphere described above.
