This role is focused on producing hyper‑realistic, documentary‑style imagery for a creative fiction project replicating a real criminal investigation file. The successful candidate will generate 34 images, including forensic photographs, scene sketches, CCTV stills, and personal photos, all designed to appear as authentic evidence within an A4 published book. The project requires meticulous attention to detail, with each image needing to convincingly replicate UK forensic and surveillance aesthetics. Candidates will receive detailed prompts and descriptions for each image, and shortlisted applicants will be provided with a comprehensive brief. The ability to research and accurately reproduce specific visual styles is essential, as is a commitment to delivering images indistinguishable from genuine investigative materials.
