Universal Prompt Prompt:
Shot Type: Extreme Close-Up. The camera is positioned directly in front of the subject's face, capturing every detail of their expression and the plastic wrap. Composition Techniques: The image utilizes Asymmetry and Depth of Field. The subject's mouth is slightly off-center, creating a sense of unease. The shallow depth of field keeps the focus on the subject's mouth and the plastic wrap, blurring the background. Lighting: Hard, directional lighting from the left side creates stark shadows across the face and plastic wrap. This lighting technique emphasizes the texture of the plastic and the contours of the subject's facial features, particularly the open mouth. Color Palette: The image is dominated by warm skin tones, contrasted with the cool, transparent sheen of the plastic wrap. The background is predominantly black, creating a dramatic contrast with the illuminated face. Mood and Emotion: The scene evokes a sense of Anxiety and Fear. The subject's open mouth suggests a silent scream or gasp for air, conveying a feeling of suffocation and desperation. Style: The image leans towards Realism with elements of Expressionism. The photorealistic quality of the skin and plastic wrap is juxtaposed with the dramatic lighting and composition, which amplify the emotional impact. Location and Setting: The setting appears to be a dark, non-descript space, focusing all attention on the subject's face and the plastic wrap. The black background suggests a studio or controlled environment rather than a natural setting. Character Placement: The subject's face fills most of the frame, with only part of the nose, mouth, and chin visible. Their mouth is open wide, teeth visible, suggesting a cry or struggle for air. Hands are visible at the bottom of the frame, gripping the plastic wrap, adding to the sense of struggle. The plastic wrap is a central element, stretched tightly across the subject's face. It creates a glossy, reflective surface that distorts the skin beneath and catches the light, adding to the unsettling nature of the image. Creases and folds in the plastic are visible, particularly around the edges of the frame where the subject's hands are gripping it. The subject's skin texture is visible through the plastic, with pores, slight imperfections, and the sheen of perspiration adding to the realism. The contrast between the smooth plastic and the organic texture of the skin creates a visceral tension. The open mouth is the focal point of the image. The teeth are clearly visible, and the stretch of the lips suggests extreme discomfort or distress. The tongue is not visible, possibly pressed against the plastic wrap, adding to the sense of confinement. Tiny droplets of condensation or possibly saliva are visible on the inside of the plastic near the mouth, suggesting the subject's breath and emphasizing the claustrophobic nature of the scene. The lighting creates sharp highlights on the plastic wrap, particularly on the left side of the image. These highlights form abstract patterns and reflections, adding a layer of visual complexity to the scene. The hands gripping the plastic at the bottom of the frame are slightly out of focus but still clearly visible. The tension in the fingers and the way they press against the plastic convey a sense of urgency and struggle. Overall, the image is a powerful and disturbing representation of suffocation, environmental concern, and the struggle against artificial, man-made barriers. It forces the viewer to confront the uncomfortable reality of plastic pollution and its impact on living beings.

Prompt for Flux
"Extreme Close-Up shot of a subject's face enveloped in plastic wrap, highlighting the textures and emotions. The camera is positioned tightly in front, capturing details of their wide-open mouth slightly off-center, creating an unsettling effect. Employing Asymmetry and a shallow Depth of Field, the focus is directed on the mouth and plastic, blurring the dark, nondescript background. The lighting is hard and directional from the left, casting stark shadows that emphasize the skin's texture and the contours of the face. The warm skin tones contrast with the cool, transparent sheen of the plastic wrap, while a predominantly black background enhances drama. The scene conveys Anxiety and Fear; the subject's open mouth suggests a silent scream for air, evoking feelings of suffocation. The style combines Realism with Expressionism, achieving photorealistic skin and plastic juxtaposed with dramatic lighting and composition. Location is clearly a controlled environment, centering attention on the subject. The face dominates the frame, capturing the open mouth with visible teeth, suggesting distress, and hands gripping the plastic at the bottom, intensifying the struggle. The glossy plastic distorts the skin, offering a visceral tension as creases capture the light. Skin texture is rendered with precision, showcasing pores and perspiration beneath the plastic, emphasizing the contrast with its smoothness. Tiny droplets of condensation on the inner surface indicate breath, heightening claustrophobia—sharp highlights create abstract patterns on the plastic wrap, adding visual complexity. The subject’s tensed fingers, slightly out of focus yet urgent, further illustrate the struggle against man-made barriers. This image serves as a powerful commentary on suffocation and plastic pollution, compelling viewers to confront the environmental impact on living beings."
