  "title": "The Midnight Melody Mystery",
  "description": "A charming, animated noir scene where a gruff detective questions a glamorous jazz singer in a stylized 1950s club.",
  "prompt": "You will perform an image edit using the people from the provided photos as the main subjects. Preserve their core likeness but stylized. Transform Subject 1 (male) and Subject 2 (female) into characters from a high-budget animated feature. Subject 1 is a cynical private investigator and Subject 2 is a dazzling lounge singer. They are seated at a curved velvet booth in a smoky, art-deco jazz club. The aesthetic must be distinctively 'Disney Character' style, featuring smooth shading, expressive large eyes, and a magical, cinematic glow.",
