Neon Night Film Portrait

Works with: Gemini · ChatGPT (any AI image editor)

Moody neon-lit night portrait with film halation — the look night-film photographers chase.

Transform this photo into a night-time film portrait in a city. Keep my exact facial features, do not change my face. Cinematic film look with visible grain and red-orange halation around neon signs and street lights, teal-and-amber color palette, shallow depth of field, moody atmosphere like a still from an art-house film shot on high-speed tungsten film.

How to use it

  1. Open Gemini or ChatGPT and attach your photo.
  2. Paste the prompt below — tweak details like clothing or setting if you like.
  3. If the face drifts, add: 'Do not alter my facial features in any way.'
  4. Save the result — then animate it with a Step 2 prompt.
