Strong rule: style --- 3D Pixar-style Animation ---. Alex stands in front of a small, cracked bathroom mirror. His reflection is split by a jagged line across the glass. His eyes have changed—the exhaustion is replaced by a cold, hard determination. The lighting is a harsh, single bulb overhead, creating deep shadows under his brow. Close-up shot.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Alex: A 25-year-old Asian man with a sharp jawline and deep-set, expressive eyes. In the present, he has neatly styled black hair and wears a high-end black silk button-down shirt. In the flashback, his hair is messy, and he wears a faded, oversized grey t-shirt. He has a lean build and a complexion that looks pale under harsh lighting. The style is cinematic realism with sharp focus on facial expressions, set against high-contrast urban environments.
