This is a realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person image that features a character with a highly stylized and fantastical appearance. The art style is realistic, with a focus on high quality line work, smooth shading, and a detailed colors.The medium appears to be digital painting, given the smooth blending of colors and the lack of texture that might be present in traditional mediums like oil or watercolor.The colors in the image are rich and dynamic, with a predominance of gold and black, which gives the character a regal and somewhat ominous presence. The gold is depicted with a high level of detail, with intricate patterns and highlights that catch the light, giving the wings and armor a threedimensional quality.

The armor is equally elaborate, with a mix of organic and mechanical elements, and is adorned with red jewels that stand out against the gold, adding a pop of color to the otherwise monochromatic scheme.The background of the image is sparse, with just a few hints of a desert landscape, which focuses the viewers attention on the character. The lighting in the image is dramatic, with the sun casting a warm glow on the character, creating a play of light and shadow that adds depth and dimension to the scene.Overall, the image exudes a sense of fantasy, power, and elegance, with a strong emphasis on the characters detailed design and the interplay of light and color.
A highly detailed realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person close-up portrait of a mysterious young woman with long, straight black hair in blunt bangs framing her pale face, her piercing red eyes glowing intensely with a subtle crimson gleam, narrowed in a serious and slightly menacing expression, thin eyebrows furrowed, small nose, and neutral mouth set in determination.

A stunning photorealistic digital painting captures two figures standing back-to-back, each embodying a distinct elemental force under the glow of a detailed full moon. The male and female, dressed in intricate traditional Japanese kimonos with floral patterns, exude fiery reds, oranges, and yellows on the left, and cool icy blues, greens, and purples on the right, creating striking contrast. A subtle pagoda silhouette and cherry blossoms frame the mystical scene, enhanced by cinematic lighting and 8K detail.
{ "SHOT COMPOSITION": "Capture an extreme close-up portrait with the subject facing directly forward, framed tightly on the face and upper shoulders using an 85mm portrait lens on a Sony A7S III camera, featuring a shallow depth of field to blur the background subtly while keeping intricate facial and cybernetic details in razor-sharp focus.", "SUBJECT & WARDROBE": "The subject is an elderly cyborg man in his 80s or 90s, with deeply wrinkled, pale Caucasian skin showing fine lines, creases, subtle age spots, and a bald scalp; his left eye is a natural, piercing turquoise blue human eye with realistic iris details and reflections, contrasted by his right eye as an intricate cybernetic implant—a large, mechanical monocle-like device with a glowing red circular lens at the center, surrounded by metallic gears, circuits, and orange energy sparks, seamlessly integrated into his skin; he wears a white and black robotic helmet or exoskeleton framing his head, complete with segmented armor plates, exposed wires, tubes, metallic components extending to his neck and shoulders, earpieces with red lights, and black cabling; his expression is neutral and introspective, evoking a sense of quiet reflection.", "SCENE SETTING": "Set against a plain, gradient dark gray void background that emphasizes isolation and focus on the subject, illuminated by soft, cinematic front lighting with subtle rim lighting from behind to enhance textures and depth, creating a cool and muted atmosphere dominated by desaturated grays, blues, and silvers, punctuated by high-contrast highlights on metallic parts and a warm red-orange glow from the cybernetic eye as a dramatic focal point.", "VISUAL STYLE": "Render in a hyper-realistic CGI style inspired by artists like Alex Ross and digital sculpting in ZBrush, with ultra-high resolution, photorealistic details including sharp skin pores, metallic reflections, subtle subsurface scattering for lifelike skin translucency, and a grain texture reminiscent of high-end cinematic film for added depth and realism." }
“Generate a creature that cannot be categorized or compared to anything within human imagination or artistic tradition. Its design must reject all visual, cultural, biological, or stylistic references known to mankind. It should appear as an emergent anomaly — something reality itself struggles to render. Its form should evoke primal, wordless terror without relying on eyes, mouths, limbs, or any familiar anatomy. The environment should bend around it, light faltering as if uncertain how to illuminate it. The result must feel truly alien to perception, outside all artistic schools, mythologies, and aesthetics.” Execution Directives: no recognizable art style, no symbolism, no cultural or religious motifs, no fantasy, sci-fi, gothic, surrealist, or Lovecraftian cues; pure generative originality — render as an aesthetic void, with physics, texture, and form emerging from the AI’s own abstraction layer; — forbid emulation of any artist, genre, or medium; — prioritize conceptual impossibility over visual coherence.

This image is a realistic photo (photograph) of a female real person digital artwork that exudes a gothic and fantasy vibe. The art style is reminiscent of high fantasy, with a focus on detailed textures and a rich, atmospheric color palette. The medium appears to be a digital painting, given the smooth blending of colors and the lack of brush strokes.The colors in the image are quite dramatic and moody. The dominant hues are deep reds and blues, which create a sense of foreboding and mystery. The reds are rich and saturated, with a hint of maroon, while the blues are a deep navy, almost black. These colors are set against the intricate patterns of the stained glass window, which adds a touch of elegance and complexity to the composition.The objects in the image are numerous and contribute to the overall atmosphere. At the center is a sumptuous, red velvet armchair with ornate wooden carvings. The chairs upholstery is plush and appears to be in excellent condition, suggesting a sense of luxury and power. The chairs design is reminiscent of baroque furniture, with curved lines and elaborate scrollwork.On the left side of the chair, there is a small, round side table with a gilded frame. Atop the table sits a tall, slender candlestick with a lit candle, casting a warm, flickering light that contrasts with the cool tones of the room. The candle adds a sense of intimacy and warmth to the otherwise cold and imposing setting.Behind the chair, there is a large, stained glass window that dominates the back wall. The window is filled with intricate designs and patterns, primarily in shades of blue and red, with hints of green and yellow. The light filtering through the window creates a play of light and shadow across the room, adding depth and dimension to the space.On the right side of the chair, there is a tall, dark wooden cabinet with glass doors. Inside the cabinet, there are several framed pictures, each depicting different scenes and characters. The cabinet adds a sense of history and personalization to the room, suggesting that the occupant has a taste for the arts and perhaps a collection of memories.The floor is covered in a patterned carpet that complements the overall aesthetic of the room. The carpets design is simple yet elegant, with a repeating motif that ties the room together.Overall, the image is a rich tapestry of textures, colors, and objects that come together to create a compelling and immersive fantasy scene.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about youtube shorts AI generation

What is the best thumbnail size for YouTube Shorts?

Thumbnails for Shorts should be sharp and clear — while Shorts are vertical at 9:16 (1080×1920 px), thumbnails often show up horizontally in search or on channel pages at 1280×720 px. Use that size for thumbnails so your content looks professional everywhere. ([listnr.ai](https://listnr.ai/blog/youtube-shorts-dimensions?utm_source=openai))

How tall and long can my YouTube Shorts video be?

Shorts must be vertical (9:16 aspect ratio), with resolution at least 720×1280 px — ideally 1080×1920. Max length is 60 seconds. Exceeding that or shooting in landscape means your video may not be classified or prioritized as a Short. ([yoloco.io](https://yoloco.io/blog/finding-the-perfect-youtube-shorts-dimension?utm_source=openai))

Can I add a custom thumbnail to a YouTube Short?

Yes — although Shorts in the feed use a frame automatically, you can set a custom thumbnail that shows in search, on your channel, and elsewhere. Upload an image at 1280×720 px. PixelDojo tools help you design these perfect thumbnails in seconds. ([yoloco.io](https://yoloco.io/blog/finding-the-perfect-youtube-shorts-dimension?utm_source=openai))

Where should I place text or faces in Shorts thumbnails so they aren’t cut off?

Keep vital text or faces within the central safe area — avoid putting them too close to the top or bottom. Many UI elements (titles, buttons, progress bars) overlap edges. Using tools like Background Remover, Style Transfer, and Material Transfer you can isolate subjects cleanly. ([blog.aitoearn.ai](https://blog.aitoearn.ai/youtube-short-dimensions/?utm_source=openai))

How do I make Shorts that get more views and engagement?

Hook viewers in the first 3 seconds, use captions (many watch with sound off), employ color, contrast, bold visuals, and consistent branding. Make every frame count. PixelDojo tools like Text-to-Speech, Video Autocaption, and Magic Lighting help amplify impact. ([podcastle.ai](https://podcastle.ai/blog/youtube-shorts-dimensions/?utm_source=openai))

Do I need to worry about algorithm changes on Shorts?

You don’t need to chase every change — fundamentals like using vertical video, good thumbnails, strong hooks, and watch time stay consistent. PixelDojo keeps updating: every tool works with current best practices, so you remain compliant, discoverable, and ready for what’s next.
