Urban Man — AI Image Prompt
Prompt
Create an ultra-realistic black-and-white cinematic portrait of a young man walking through a busy night-time city - use face reference exactly. He remains sharply in focus while the crowd around him blurs into dynamic motion, creating a striking sense of isolation, depth, and introspection. Soft urban lights form abstract bokeh streaks behind him, enhancing the moody atmosphere. His expression is intense and thoughtful, hair slightly tousled, wearing a dark coat layered over a loosely unbuttoned shirt. High-contrast lighting, shallow depth of field, dramatic motion blur, film-noir aesthetic, and clean poster-style framing with crisp 8K realism.

Why This Prompt Works
The high word count gives the model rich context, reducing ambiguity and producing more consistent results. The photorealistic and cinematic aesthetic signals are specific enough that the model can lock onto a distinct visual language. Explicit lighting direction (a leading signal in prompt engineering) significantly improves photo-realism and composition. Well-crafted prompts like this one combine subject precision, style vocabulary, and rendering hints — the three pillars of reliable AI image generation.
Best Model
FLUX is strongly recommended for this prompt. FLUX 1.1 Pro excels at photorealism and handles complex lighting instructions more accurately than older models.
