Just a reminder because I almost got swept up in this:
✅️ Shiftup is the company that allegedly fired two women "because they were feminist."
✅️ They broke the trend of the uglified female characters and normalized sexy again.
✅️ Nothing about Jerome's job description includes being hired *for the purpose* of DEI, ESG, or anything lame like that.
✅️ Shiftup has ended their relationship with SONY and is now SELF-publishing the sequel. Meaning they have more power.
If that's not enough good for you, then consider this:
✅️ Jerome's LinkedIn has currently been scrubbed of the word DEI.
I really don't think Korea plays with that. 🤷🏿♂️

Here's the full prompt I used:
"Create a photorealistic portrait of a young woman standing indoors against a muted dusty-rose/pink wall. She has fair, natural-looking skin with subtle texture, dark brown hair pulled back into a neat ponytail with a few soft strands framing her face, defined eyebrows, natural eye makeup, and a relaxed, friendly expression with a gentle open smile. She faces the camera directly with a confident but casual posture, shoulders relaxed, arms naturally lowered with her hands resting comfortably near the front of her trousers.
She is wearing a mustard-yellow cropped sleeveless top with a simple rounded neckline and matching loose mustard-yellow trousers featuring a delicate reddish-brown floral or paisley-inspired pattern. The outfit should look like tasteful contemporary casual fashion, with realistic fabric texture, natural folds, and accurate stitching. Keep the styling simple and elegant, with minimal accessories and no prominent logos.
The setting is a clean, minimal indoor studio or lifestyle room with a smooth dusty-rose wall providing a warm monochromatic backdrop. Use soft diffused window light coming from one side, producing gentle highlights on the face and subtle natural shadows without harsh contrast. Maintain realistic skin tones and preserve fine facial details.
Camera and style: full-frame digital camera, approximately 85mm portrait lens, eye-level composition, medium-full portrait framing, shallow but natural depth of field, realistic perspective, crisp facial focus, soft background separation, high dynamic range, subtle cinematic color grading, balanced exposure, natural skin texture, realistic fabric detail, professional editorial photography, photorealistic quality, high detail, clean composition, no artificial beauty-filter effect.
Important: Preserve natural body proportions and realistic anatomy. Keep the pose relaxed and appropriate, with the emphasis on the subject's face, clothing, expression, and overall portrait aesthetic."
