Use this structured Nano Banana prompt to edit from a photo, locking 100% of the facial identity, hairstyle family, and gender while applying the fire–human duality concept:
Nano Banana – Image Editing Prompt (structured)
Goal / Action
Edit the uploaded photo and create an ultra‑hyper‑realistic extreme close‑up portrait of the same person, captured mid‑primal scream, with half of the face human and half made of living fire. Keep identity and facial structure perfectly unchanged.
Subject & Identity Constraints
Use the reference image as the exact face anchor.
Preserve: bone structure, facial proportions, eye shape and color, nose, lips, jawline, skin texture, pores, wrinkles, and micro‑expressions.
Preserve: gender, age category, and overall hairstyle and hairline (only adapt for motion and lighting).
No facial drift: do not change identity, ethnicity, or body type; it must be instantly recognizable as the same person.
Pose, Expression & Framing
Extreme close‑up of the face, filling most of the 9:16 vertical frame.
Subject frozen at the peak of a primal scream: mouth wide open, visible teeth, tense neck and facial muscles, brows pulled and eyes intense.
Shot as if with an 85 mm lens at f/1.8, razor‑sharp focus on facial textures and flame structures, with natural depth‑of‑field falloff.
Left Side – Human Skin
The left half of the face remains fully human.
Realistic skin under cool teal cinematic lighting, with detailed pores, fine wrinkles, and sweat / moisture on the surface.
Clearly visible strain in facial muscles, subtle vein pressure, micro‑stretching of skin around the mouth, cheeks, and eye area, rendered with photographic realism.
Right Side – Face Made of Fire
The right half is entirely transformed into fire, but still follows the exact facial anatomy of the reference: eye socket, cheekbone curve, nose bridge, jawline, and lips all preserved as shapes.
Facial contours built from layered tongues of flame, with cheekbones defined by denser, slower‑moving flame masses.
Nose and lips sculpted from compressed, plasma‑like fire; the eye socket glows white‑hot, filled with fire instead of an eyeball.
Fire behavior must obey physics: convection flow, turbulence, heat shimmer, volumetric light scattering, and convincing flame motion frozen in time.
Transition Zone – Skin to Fire
The vertical split follows real anatomy precisely, not a flat graphic line.
At the border: cracked and carbonized skin edges, faint glowing fissures, ash residue, embers embedded in pores, and wisps of smoke where flesh meets flame.
No hard CGI seams or cartoon outlines; the blend must feel biologically and physically plausible.
Mouth, Heat & Light Interaction
The open mouth emits intense internal heat and light.
Include realistic light refraction through saliva vapor and heat distortion gently bending the surrounding air.
Embers and tiny sparks are expelled naturally with the scream.
Fire illumination casts accurate orange light onto nearby human skin, while overall teal‑orange color contrast is preserved with proper shadow gradients and HDR balance.
Background & Atmosphere
Background: deep cinematic void, dark and minimal.
Enrich it with volumetric smoke, floating embers, and soft bokeh particles to add depth without distracting from the face.
Strong teal‑orange complementary palette, dramatic chiaroscuro lighting, physically based global illumination look.
Rendering Style & Quality
Hyper‑realistic, physically grounded rendering: realistic wet skin shine, micro‑detail in pores, flame volume, smoke density, and heat shimmer.
Subtle film grain, high dynamic range, frozen motion energy.
Aspect ratio: 9:16 vertical.
Visual feel: cinematic, ultra‑realistic, like a UE5‑quality film frame, not stylized illustration.
Restrictions / Negative Instructions
Do not alter the person’s identity, facial geometry, hairstyle family, or gender.
No anime, cartoon, low detail, blur, overexposed highlights, flat color, or plastic skin.
Avoid AI artifacts, glitchy edges, hard clipping between skin and fire, or unrealistic lens effects.
Keep all elements grounded in brutal realism despite the surreal concept.
