Art style: Cinematic Realistic. A modern, cluttered apartment living room at dusk. Alex is perched on a stepladder, meticulously mounting a small, sleek black security camera to the corner of the ceiling. Muted grey and navy tones with a single warm floor lamp glowing in the corner. Shot from a low angle, emphasizing the height of the room. The mood is anxious and cautious. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Alex: Strong rule: style --- Cinematic Realistic ---. A man in his mid-30s with short, messy dark hair and heavy dark circles under his weary brown eyes. He has a three-day stubble and a lean, slightly slouched build. He wears a plain black cotton t-shirt and loose grey heathered sweatpants. His expression is one of perpetual, low-level dread. The lighting is harsh and overhead, highlighting the tension in his face. Background is a minimalist, slightly disorganized apartment interior. The style is grounded and gritty with high contrast between deep shadows and sharp highlights.
