Intimate restaurant dialogue
A restrained shot-reverse-shot conversation with warm practical light and consistent eyelines.
Production prompt
Cinematic evening restaurant conversation between two adults seated across a small table. Begin with a medium over-the-shoulder shot of the man speaking quietly, cut to a close reaction shot that preserves the woman's face, wardrobe and eyeline, then return to a subtle close-up of the man. Warm table lamps, shallow depth of field, natural blinking and breathing, understated performance, coherent background continuity, clean dialogue and low room ambience.
