IDENTITY PRESERVATION INSTRUCTION:
Using the uploaded photo as reference, preserve the person's exact facial features, face shape, eye color, skin tone, and unique characteristics while transforming the image into an animated style. Maintain the original facial structure, expression, and likeness to ensure the person remains recognizable.

TRANSFORMATION DESCRIPTION:
Transform the portrait into a high-quality animated illustration. Apply a stylized 2D animation aesthetic with clean lines and vibrant colors. The face should have smooth, natural skin texture adapted to the animation style, with expressive eyes and stylized hair. The overall look should be professional and artistic, not a cartoon caricature, but a refined animated character design.

STYLE AND AESTHETIC PARAMETERS:
- Art style: 2D animated illustration, digital art, anime-inspired but realistic proportions
- Lighting conditions: Soft studio lighting with gentle shadows, cinematic lighting that highlights facial features naturally
- Color palette: Vibrant yet natural colors, saturated tones that complement the person's skin tone, warm or cool lighting depending on original photo
- Background treatment: Keep the background simple and blurred or replace with a subtle gradient or soft bokeh effect to keep focus on the subject
- Texture: Smooth skin with subtle texture, clean line art, high-quality rendering
- Mood: Professional, artistic, visually appealing

TECHNICAL QUALITY PARAMETERS:
- High resolution, 4K, detailed
- Sharp focus on face
- Professional quality
- Aspect ratio: 1:1 (square) or 4:3 (standard portrait)
- Clean edges and smooth transitions

NEGATIVE PROMPT GUIDANCE:
