Cinematic Portrait Parallax
#portrait #cinematic #parallax

A cinematic 3D parallax effect video of a portrait photograph. A professional headshot with beautiful lighting. The virtual camera slowly pushes forward through the scene, creating depth separation between the subject and the background. The person's face in the foreground moves at a different speed from the blurred background, revealing strong three-dimensional layers. Smooth dolly-in camera movement, photorealistic style, dramatic portrait lighting with soft shadows, cinematic color grading with warm tones, shallow depth of field effect. The parallax motion creates an immersive sense of depth and dimensionality.
