UNIVERSAL PROFESSIONAL CHARACTER & EXPRESSION REFERENCE SHEET REFERENCE IMAGE: Use the uploaded image as the primary and authoritative reference for the character. OBJECTIVE: Create a professional, production-ready character reference sheet combining facial identity views, multiple facial expressions, and full-body turnaround views in one organized image. 1. IDENTITY LOCK Preserve the exact identity of the person in the uploaded image, including facial structure, eyes, nose, lips, ears, skin tone, hairstyle, hairline, age, and distinctive features. Keep the same identity in every panel. Do not redesign or replace the character. 2. LAYOUT — THREE HORIZONTAL ROWS TOP ROW — HEAD & FACE ANGLES Create four equally sized portrait panels: Straight-on front-facing headshot. Three-quarter view facing left. Three-quarter view facing right. Direct rear view showing the back of the head and hairstyle. Keep the same hairstyle, facial proportions, lighting, and clothing in all applicable views. MIDDLE ROW — FACIAL EXPRESSIONS Create four equally sized head-and-shoulders portraits of the exact same character: Neutral expression. Angry expression with furrowed eyebrows. Sad expression with worried eyes and a downturned mouth. Surprised expression with raised eyebrows and an open mouth. Change only the facial expression. Preserve identity, hairstyle, camera position, clothing, and lighting. BOTTOM ROW — FULL-BODY TURNAROUND Create four equally sized full-body views: Straight front view. Left side profile. Right side profile. Straight rear view. Show the entire character from head to feet in every panel. Maintain the same body proportions, outfit, accessories, and footwear. Use a neutral standing pose with arms slightly separated from the torso. 3. BACKGROUND & LIGHTING Use a clean, neutral studio background, preferably white or light gray, with consistent soft studio lighting, realistic shadows, and professional reference-sheet presentation. Separate the 12 panels using subtle, clean dividers. Keep the layout symmetrical, organized, and easy to use as a visual reference. 4. CLOTHING & BODY CONSISTENCY Preserve the original clothing and accessories wherever visible in the reference. If only a face image is supplied, create a simple, believable outfit appropriate to the character and maintain it consistently throughout the sheet. Keep body anatomy natural and proportions consistent. Do not change the character's physique between views. 5. STRICT NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS No different identities, no duplicate characters with altered faces, no inconsistent hairstyles, no random outfit changes, no distorted anatomy, no missing limbs, no cropped feet, no extra fingers, no exaggerated facial distortion, no additional panels, no decorative collage elements, and no unnecessary text or watermarks. 6. FINAL OUTPUT Generate one professional 12-panel character reference sheet with: 4 head-angle views. 4 facial-expression views. 4 full-body turnaround views. Prioritize identity preservation, accurate anatomy, consistent wardrobe, clear expressions, and practical usability for AI image generation, animation, and cinematic video production. RESOLUTION LOCK: Generate final images in 16K resolution — 15360 × 8640 pixels (≈132.7 million pixels), 16:9 aspect ratio. FINAL PRIORITY: Every panel must depict the same recognizable character. This is a technical character reference sheet, not a collection of unrelated portraits.
# UNIVERSAL PROFESSIONAL CHARACTER REFERENCE SHEET — PRODUCTION STANDARD
**REFERENCE IMAGE:** Use the uploaded image as the primary and authoritative reference for the character.
**OBJECTIVE:** Create a professional, production-ready, three-panel character reference sheet designed specifically for AI video generation, image-to-video workflows, character consistency, and cinematic production.
### 1. IDENTITY & REFERENCE LOCK
Preserve the exact identity and appearance of the uploaded character. Maintain the original facial features, skin tone, age, hairstyle, hair color, body proportions, clothing, accessories, and distinctive characteristics. Do not redesign, beautify, reinterpret, or replace the character. If the reference is a fictional character, preserve its original design.
### 2. BACKGROUND & LAYOUT
Use a solid, neutral, medium-gray studio background across all three panels. Create a clean horizontal triptych with three equally organized vertical panels, subtle separators, consistent neutral studio lighting, realistic shadows, and professional production-sheet presentation.
### PANEL 01 — FACE DETAIL / CLOSE-UP
Create a tight, high-resolution close-up of the exact character's face and head. Clearly reveal the facial structure, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, skin texture, hairline, hairstyle, and other identifying details. Use a neutral expression, natural lighting, sharp focus, and realistic anatomical detail. Frame the face large enough to serve as a precise identity reference.
### PANEL 02 — FRONT BODY VIEW / FACE EXCLUDED
Show the exact same character standing upright in a straight, neutral, front-facing full-body pose. Frame the image from the base of the neck down to the feet, with the entire face and head excluded from the frame. Clearly show the shoulders, torso, arms, hands, clothing, waist, legs, footwear, body proportions, and complete silhouette. Keep the arms slightly separated from the torso so the body structure and outfit remain clearly visible.
### PANEL 03 — BACK BODY VIEW
Show the exact same character standing upright in a straight, neutral, rear-facing full-body pose. Display the back of the head, hairstyle from behind, shoulders, back, arms, clothing details, legs, and footwear. Keep the complete character visible from head to feet. Match the exact outfit, body proportions, hairstyle, and physical appearance established in the other panels.
### 3. STRICT CONSISTENCY RULES
- All three panels must depict the same individual or character.
- Preserve identical clothing, colors, accessories, hairstyle, body proportions, and physical characteristics.
- Use consistent camera height, neutral studio lighting, gray background, and realistic proportions.
- Keep the front and back views anatomically correct and naturally posed.
- Do not invent additional characters, outfits, accessories, or design variations.
- Do not add action poses, cinematic environments, dramatic lighting, decorative graphics, or unnecessary details.
- Do not allow the character to become cropped in the back-view panel.
- The center panel must exclude the face and head completely.
- The left panel must prioritize facial identity and fine details.
- The right panel must prioritize the rear silhouette and back-of-head details.
### 4. FINAL OUTPUT
Generate one clean, landscape-format, three-panel professional character reference sheet. Prioritize reference accuracy, clear separation of views, realistic detail, and practical usability in AI video production. The final image must function as a technical character reference rather than a decorative character collage.
**RESOLUTION LOCK:** Generate final images in 16K resolution — 15360 × 8640 pixels (≈132.7 million pixels), 16:9 aspect ratio.
**FINAL PRIORITY:** Exact reference preservation, accurate front and back views, clear facial identity, consistent wardrobe, neutral gray background, and production-ready character continuity.
UNIVERSAL PROFESSIONAL CHARACTER SHEET — REFERENCE IMAGE LOCK

Keep all three panels aligned, cleanly separated, and visually balanced.
Make the close-up panel larger than either full-body panel, matching the supplied layout.
5. PHOTOREALISM & QUALITY
Premium professional photography, lifelike skin texture, realistic hair strands, detailed fabric weave, natural anatomy, accurate lighting, crisp focus, high dynamic range, and production-ready character reference quality.
Avoid plastic skin, artificial facial smoothing, distorted hands, extra fingers, inconsistent facial features, warped anatomy, blurry textures, and AI-generated visual artifacts.

RIGHT: Full-body back view.
No additional panels, no extra characters, no text, no labels, no watermarks, and no decorative borders beyond the thin white panel dividers.
