Here’s the exact prompt I used to achieve this style:

An ultra-realistic cinematic portrait of the reference image's face, body, and height matches perfectly.

Details & Variations You Can Try

Aspect Ratios:
- Vertical (9:16) for reels and mobile impact.

- Square (1:1) for classic feed posts.
Outfits: Swap the orange suit for black velvet, navy blue, or patterned tuxedos for different moods.
Lighting: Experiment with spotlights, neon glows, or golden rim lights to change the atmosphere.
Pose/Expression: Try leaning forward, hands in pockets, or a half-smile for more personality.
Mood & Colors: Orange feels bold and energetic; switch to deep reds for power, or icy blue for cool elegance.

Tips & Tricks

Use a clean reference photo with a clear walking stance—it helps AI create natural motion.
Adding smoke or atmospheric haze makes the subject pop more dramatically.
When I tested this prompt, adjusting the suit color from orange to deep emerald completely changed the vibe—it felt more regal and timeless while keeping the cinematic edge.
