DIRECTIVE: Generate a hyper-realistic, documentary-style 3x3 contact sheet (9 panels) depicting "A Day in the Life" of the subject provided in the reference image. CRITICAL: You must analyze the subject's age, clothing style, grooming, and facial weathering in the reference image to DEDUCE their likely profession, social class, and daily routine. The scenes generated must be contextually appropriate to the specific character archetype identified in the reference. SUBJECT/CHARACTER DEFINITIONS: STRICT ADHERENCE: Facial features, physical build, and specific likeness must match the reference image exactly across all 9 panels. OUTFIT LOGIC: Keep the clothing consistent with the reference, but allow for logical variations (e.g., adding a coat for outdoor shots, rolling up sleeves for work shots). SCENE & LAYOUT (CONTEXT-AWARE NARRATIVE): Panel 1 (The Awakening): Close-up. Morning light. The subject engaging in a morning ritual appropriate to their inferred lifestyle (e.g., reading a paper, drinking tea, or staring out a window). Panel 2 (The Commute/Transit): Wide Shot. The subject moving through an environment that matches their archetype (e.g., a subway, a country road, a busy city street, or a harbor). Panel 3 (The Preparation): Detail Shot. Focus on the subject's hands preparing for their day's work. Tools or objects interacting with hands must match the implied profession from the reference image. Panel 4 (The Core Activity - Action): Medium Shot. The subject fully immersed in their primary daily activity. The background and props must be deduced from the subject's look (e.g., an office, a workshop, a kitchen, a field). Panel 5 (The Interaction): Over-the-Shoulder. The subject interacting with a secondary character appropriate to the setting. Candid laughter or serious discussion depending on the subject's vibe. Panel 6 (The Pause): Medium Shot. A break in the day. The subject resting in a location that contrasts with their work environment. Natural lighting. Panel 7 (The Detail): Macro Shot. A specific texture or object relevant to the subject's story (e.g., calloused hands, a luxury watch, muddy boots, or a pen). Panel 8 (The Return): Wide Shot. Evening light/Golden Hour. The subject heading home. The atmosphere should reflect the mood of the day (tired, satisfied, or rushed). Panel 9 (The Unwind): Low Light/Cinematic. The subject in a private, domestic setting. Relaxed posture. The lighting should be warm and intimate, bringing the day to a close. TECHNICAL SPECS (THE "LEICA LOOK"): Camera & Lens: Leica M6 Rangefinder aesthetic with a 35mm Summicron lens. Film Stock: Kodak Portra 400 (emphasizing warm skin tones, micro-contrast, and organic film grain). Lighting: STRICTLY Available Light (Natural Window Light, Practical Lamps, Golden Hour Sun). No studio flash look. Composition: "The Decisive Moment" style. Imperfect, candid framing. Style Keywords: Costumbrista, Humanist Photography, Visual Storytelling, Contextual Deduction, Authentic, Unposed.
