Copy-ready prompt
Create a cinematic, emotionally evocative still portrait in a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, with the main subject being {argument name="character description" default="An old man with gray hair and a short beard"} He sat by a cold, grimy window on the left side of the room. The composition employed a tight close-up, with the figure occupying the center and right side of the frame. The top of the head was slightly cropped, revealing an ear and a few strands of gray hair on the right side, and a worn tweed or wool coat over a dark shirt visible at the bottom. A large, opaque square masking block was placed in the center of the face, covering most of the facial features from forehead to jaw; the masking block should exhibit a subtle gradient from dark brown to black, be a perfect rectangle, and be positioned slightly above the center of the frame.{argument name="lighting mood" default="Dim natural window light"} Cool, bluish-green sunlight streams in from the left window, while the right side of the room is bathed in deep shadows with soft brown tones. The background should evoke the atmosphere of an old, worn interior, with weathered window frames and dirty glass on the left, and blurred picture frames or wall details on the right. The style should be a rough, simulated cinematic feel, realistic live-action, shallow depth of field, soft film grain, low-saturation colors, dramatic, understated lighting, subtle fog, and a tense, introspective atmosphere. Avoid text, signs, superfluous figures, and bright, modern lighting.
