The Prompt

Create a cinematic hybrid real-life + anime group scene from a high top-down camera angle, matching the same road background, double yellow lines, framing, and composition as the reference image. The characters stand together in a tight formation, looking upward toward the camera with confident, serious expressions. Keep the same vertical perspective, spacing, and street texture. Main Human Subject (Center). Place me in the middle of the group as a real-world human boy using my face reference , ar-9:16

How to Use This Prompt

To use this prompt effectively, start by preparing your reference image. The prompt specifically mentions matching the road background, double yellow lines, framing, and composition from that reference. This means you need an initial photo that shows the street scene you want to replicate—ideally a top-down shot of a road with clear markings. Upload this as your style reference or composition reference depending on the AI tool you're using. Next, you'll need a clear face reference of yourself. The prompt places you as the main human subject in the center, so the AI needs to know what you look like. A front-facing, well-lit photo works best. In Midjourney, you can use image prompts by including the image URLs at the beginning of your prompt. The structure would look something like: [reference scene URL] [face URL] followed by the prompt text. The prompt asks for a hybrid real-life and anime style. This means the characters around you should have an anime aesthetic while you remain photorealistic. The AI needs to understand this blend, so the wording is critical. It also specifies a high top-down camera angle with the group looking up at the camera. This creates a dynamic, powerful perspective often seen in movie posters or dramatic group shots. Set your aspect ratio to 9:16 for a vertical composition. If your tool allows, you might want to set the stylize value to medium or high to encourage the anime blend. Run multiple generations and pick the one that best captures the serious expressions and tight formation. You may need to tweak the prompt slightly if the AI struggles with the hybrid style, perhaps by adding descriptors like "anime characters with realistic textures" or "mixed media style."
