Branding helps your content/ business /product stand out, and get remembered in a crowded space. Check out the prompt used to add the Shelly In The City Branding. Transform this image into the Shellyverse visual style. STYLE: Afro-surreal 2D animated realism with cinematic depth. Blend stylized cartoon rendering with realistic lighting and texture. Preserve the subject’s identity but elevate into a high-end animated world. COLOR SYSTEM (STRICT): Electric Fuchsia accents (#FF2E9B) Gold Honey highlights (#FBC02D) Midnight Indigo shadows (#1A1745) Digital Green interface glow LIGHTING: Golden hour base lighting with warm directional highlights. Subtle rim light in Electric Fuchsia. Ambient Digital Green glow from environmental tech elements. Deep cinematic shadows using Midnight Indigo. ENVIRONMENT TRANSFORMATION: Convert surroundings into “The City” aesthetic: • Futuristic Black American cultural architecture • Neon + brick hybrid textures • Symbolic glyph signage (with small English subtitles beneath) • Embedded Digital Green street/grid lines • Subtle holographic or interface elements in background ATMOSPHERE: Light haze with glowing particles. Cultural energy — lived-in, vibrant, communal. Background should feel alive but not distracting. CHARACTER TREATMENT (if people present): Smooth stylized skin rendering (not plastic) Slight eye enhancement for expressiveness Natural hair texture preserved and enhanced Wardrobe subtly upgraded with futuristic cultural details CAMERA: Cinematic depth of field Slight lens blur in background Vertical framing (9:16 composition feel) Sharp focus on subject TEXTURE: Clean but not flat Soft gradients + subtle grain for richness DO NOT: photorealism flat lighting washed-out colors generic modern city overexposed neon plastic skin anime style 3D render look FINAL LOOK: Premium animated series frame Feels like a still from a high-end Black futuristic cultural universe Grounded, emotional, cinematic, and alive.

It’s been a minute…. how is everyone? I need to catch up with class. Work has been kicking my butt. I have some new things to share… I’ll be in class Saturday💛🦋✨

Happy FriYay Family… who’s creating today?

Greetings family! With my caregiving duties/schedule, I haven’t been able to dedicate the time necessary to do the stickman videos, but I did go back to SORA that I’ve used in the past and I’ve been working on videos and this is one of them below (yes, the TBAT logo is wrong, but I’ll get it right).🫡💯 Let me know your thoughts family!
