Style Notes
- Cinematic
- Film-style rendering — widescreen framing, dramatic lighting contrast, graded colors (often teal-orange), and a sense of narrative in the scene.
- Hero Portrait
- A single dominant subject shot like a key visual — tight framing, strong eye contact or pose, background simplified so the character carries the image.
- High Detail
- Pushes the model toward micro-texture and fine rendering — pores, fabric weave, surface wear — at the cost of a busier image.
- Illustration
- Hand-drawn or digital-painting aesthetics — visible strokes, stylized shapes and colors, deliberately not photoreal.
- Nature Landscape
- Wide scenic composition with believable atmospherics — layered depth, weather and time-of-day cues doing most of the mood work.
- Product Mockup
- The design presented in context — packaging on a shelf, app on a phone screen, tee on a model — to preview how it looks in the real world.
