To write an effective prompt, consider key elements such as the shot type (e.g., close-up), the gender of the subject, their pose, the camera angle (e.g., straight-on), specific details about their physical appearance (e.g., complexion, eye color, hair), and a description of the background (e.g., blurred outdoor setting). By combining these aspects, you can create a detailed prompt that guides AI image generation to produce the desired visual.
