Art style: 3D Cartoon. A medium shot of Marcus standing over Leo. Marcus's hand is mid-motion, having just delivered a light, playful slap to the back of Leo's head. Leo's head is jolted forward, his glasses slipping down his nose. Marcus has a stern but slightly amused expression. The bedroom is now fully lit by the hallway light, the dream-glow completely gone. The mahogany desk, the textbooks, and the flickering TV are all back to their normal, mundane appearance. The lighting is warm and domestic. The composition is vertical and tight, focusing on the interaction between father and son. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: Pixar-style 3D computer animation (Pixar / Disney feature-film look) — fully volumetric 3D rendering with rounded dimensional forms, soft subsurface-scattering skin, physically based materials, soft global illumination, rich saturated colours and appealing stylised character proportions. The WHOLE frame is 3D animation — never flat 2D illustration, never photoreal live action. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Leo: A 15-year-old African American boy with a slender build and a focused expression. He has short, neat dreadlocks that frame his face and wears thick-rimmed black rectangular glasses. His skin has a warm, mahogany tone. He wears a simple charcoal grey cotton hoodie over a plain white t-shirt. His eyes are dark and expressive, often narrowing in deep thought. He is seen in a bedroom setting with soft, warm indoor lighting that catches the edges of his glasses and the texture of his hair. - Marcus: A man in his mid-40s with a strong, athletic build and a kind, weathered face. He has short-cropped black hair and a neatly trimmed goatee. His skin is a deep ebony. He wears a dark navy blue work shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing strong forearms. His expression is usually serious but softens when looking at his son. He is standing in a doorway with bright hallway light silhouetting his frame.
