🎭 One Face, Four Emotions: How I Created Expressive AI Portraits Using Simple Prompts

Have you ever wanted your AI-generated characters to feel real — to show emotion, personality, and mood shifts?

In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through how I created a full image sequence of the same girl showing four different emotions: happy, sad, angry, and curious — using only text prompts.

No Photoshop. No face-swapping. Just prompt crafting.

🔧 Tools Used

• ChatGPT for generating image

🧠 Step-by-Step: How I Did It

1. 📸 The Base Prompt – Neutral Face

We start with a base image prompt that defines the character. This ensures all variations later stay consistent.

Prompt:

portrait, anime girl, medium shot, studio lighting, happy

You can tweak the lighting or background, but try to keep most features constant.

2. 😀 Sad Expression

To change the expression, I only modified the mood keyword in the prompt.

Prompt for Sad:

make the same lady sad and change her background window color to red

3. 😠 Angry Expression

To generate anger

Prompt for Angry:

make the same lady angry and change her background window color to white

5. 🤔 Curious Expression

For a softer, inquisitive look:

Prompt for Curious:

make the image of same lady with  curious expression ( attcahed the original image  and gave prompt)

📽️ Final Touch: Turn It into a Video or GIF

Once you’ve generated all four images:

1. Drop them into CapCut, Canva, or any video editor.
2. Add quick transitions to make a 5–8 sec reel.
3. Add cover text like:
   “One Face → 4 Emotions | Made with AI Prompts”
4. Upload to YouTube Shorts or Instagram Reels
