Strong rule: style --- 3D Pixar ---. A medium shot of the Lead Scientist performing a deep, heavy facepalm with both hands covering his entire face. His colleagues in the background look down at the floor in shared shame. The lighting is dimming, reflecting the somber mood of the room. The composition is centered on the scientist's physical manifestation of defeat.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Lead Scientist: An elderly, frail royal scientist in his 70s with a long, wispy white beard and massive, thick-rimmed spectacles that magnify his judgmental eyes. He wears layered, ink-stained academic robes in deep indigo and a tattered scholar's cap. His hands are bony and stained with quill ink. He stands in a dimly lit, dusty library filled with ancient scrolls and astronomical globes. The style is detailed 3D animation, focusing on the textures of his wrinkled skin and the dusty atmosphere. He carries an expression of utter intellectual frustration and disbelief.
