Art style: Cinematic Photorealism. A wide vertical shot of Alex sitting at a cramped desk in a dark apartment. The only light comes from a laptop screen, casting a cool blue glow on his tired face. Out the window, the distant city lights are blurred. The room is filled with dark olive tones and shadows, emphasizing solitude and heavy labor. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Photorealism" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Photorealism". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Photorealism" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Alex: A man in his late 20s with sharp, angular facial features and dark circles under his tired eyes, suggesting long nights of work. His expression is stoic and guarded, with a subtle clenching of the jaw. He has a short, practical haircut. The lighting is cold and top-down, highlighting the hollows of his cheeks. He is set against a backdrop of a dim, messy home office with stacks of papers. Brand guidelines: Brand color palette: #525e3b. Use these colors prominently in the composition.
