Recommended workflow
- 01
Prepare the input
Choose reference images you have permission to use. For Cinematic Golden Hour Jeep Portrait, prioritize a clear subject and avoid unrelated people or private details in the frame.
- 02
Lock the visual plan
Confirm subject count, framing, scene, and lighting before adding finishing language. Resolve conflicts such as close-up versus full-body composition.
- 03
Adapt for one model
Start with ChatGPT Image. Keep a baseline generation and document the exact model version, references, aspect ratio, and visible settings.
- 04
Revise from evidence
Name the visible failure, change one instruction block, and compare it against the baseline. Keep only revisions that improve the intended criterion.
Model adaptation notes
ChatGPT Image
Keep the JSON structure, attach references in the same conversation, and use follow-up edits for one local correction at a time.
Gemini
Provide the JSON with clearly labeled reference images. Restate any ignored constraint in plain language without duplicating the whole prompt.
A compatibility label means the visual intent can be adapted; it does not promise identical output across providers, versions, or settings.
Prompt-specific quality checklist
- Preserve the original relaxed seated position inside the jeep cabin.
- Keep the jeep visibly vintage, metallic, heavily rusted, weathered, and doorless.
- Preserve the candid quality rather than creating a rigid or overly posed fashion stance.
- The man's face, head, hair, neck, and body must form one anatomically coherent subject.
- Preserve the reference person's exact hair color, short length, density, curl pattern, natural texture, hairline, volume, and recognizable hairstyle identity.
- Do not freeze the exact placement of the hair from the reference photo. Adapt individual curls, loose strands, volume, direction, gravity, movement, and golden-hour highlights naturally to the new head angle, seated posture, environment, and camera perspective.
- The sunglasses must integrate naturally with the preserved face anatomy, nose bridge, temples, ears, lighting, and perspective without obscuring or deforming the subject's identity.
Failures to check before publishing
- pasted face
- copied face pose
- copied reference pixels
- frozen reference expression
- duplicated head angle
- mismatched gaze direction
- face-body mismatch
