Behind the scenes
TD107 · curation notesThe AI is half the work. The other half is the TD107 team — what they shoot in the studio, how they grade per country, and which frames they cull before you ever see them. Here's the process, per-sample lighting notes, and the people behind the curation.
The forge process
60 prompts fan out across 8 outfit categories + 4 country presets. The AI engine produces ~120 candidate frames.
TD107 photographer curates the keepers. Bad eyes, plastic skin, wonky teeth — culled by hand. Colour pass applied per preset.
ZIP + email via Resend. Original prompts included so you can re-forge with tweaks. 7-day download link.
Per-sample lighting & grade notes
Every portrait in the gallery above came from a deliberate decision — backdrop, key angle, grade. The team writes these up for every preset so the AI side stays honest.

Executive
🇺🇸 US ExecutiveNavy suit, white shirt, navy tie. Soft front-key from camera-left, office bokeh held wide-open for that floating-corporate feel. Grade kept neutral — no warm push, so the slate of the suit reads true on LinkedIn thumbnails.

Creative
🇺🇸 US / 🇫🇷 FRFounder-aesthetic: bald + beard + black crew on a grey studio gradient. Single key at 45° camera-right, weak rim from behind for shoulder separation. Skin texture preserved (no smoothing) — creative directors hate plastic.

Tech
🇺🇸 US / 🇰🇷 KRBlue-frame glasses are the storytelling object — we keyed neutral grey so the frames pop. Smart-casual zip-up = IC/PM signal, not exec. Grade pulled cool-neutral; we don't warm tech presets.

Academic
🇫🇷 FR / 🇰🇷 KRSenior faculty energy: white hair, round glasses, arms crossed, chalkboard formulas behind. Straight-on for authority instead of the 1/3-rule over-shoulder. Light blue shirt instead of blazer — academic publishing prefers softer than corporate.

Editorial
🇫🇷 FR EditorialSingle warm key from camera-right at low height — that's where the orange wash on the cheekbones comes from. Subject 3/4 turned for editorial intensity. Black turtleneck + rounded eyeglasses = press-kit author look. Grade is Portra-warm, vintage emulation.

Casual
🇺🇸 US / 🇫🇷 FRPlain white tee, daylight from window camera-right, soft fall-off on background. Eye contact close-up = approachable About-page. No retouch — the light stubble stays. Authenticity over polish.

Formal
🇰🇷 KR BusinessCheck blue suit + black dot tie + pocket square. East Asian attention to coordinated detail. Round black glasses signal Seoul/Tokyo modern executive. Indoor casual backdrop (not studio sweep) keeps it lived-in. 3/4 turn lets the suit's checks read.

Creative Pro
🇫🇷 FR / 🇺🇸 USCinematic blue rim from camera-back + tungsten warm key overhead = the dual-gel look that drives editorial high-fashion. Subject straight-on, no smile, dark crew. Grade pushed cyan-magenta split-tone. Talent-agency presentation.
The team behind it
TD107 is the in-house Film & Photography group inside FORUM D&P. Roles are public; individual names live on /about#td107 and the parent forumdnp.com portfolio.
Calls the shot list. Owns the FR Editorial preset and approves every Studio-tier delivery before it ships.
Calibrates the 4 country presets against real-world reference shots. The reason KR Business and FR Editorial don't look like the same grade with a tint.
Tunes the per-category prompt suffix on every model update. Tracks which negative prompts actually kill plastic skin (most don't).
Final pass on Studio tier. Flags which shots will read well on a board-deck slide vs a LinkedIn carousel — usually different ones.
Watching real shoots makes the AI side feel less mystical. Studio reels and full preset breakdowns roll out as the TD107 calendar opens up — for now, the notes are the deepest cut we publish. See the team at /about#td107.
Outfit selection — what's next
Coming Q4 2026Today, the outfit step is curated by our in-house TD107 photographer team. We're looking ahead to a richer outfit selection — but only on terms that keep the photographer team in the loop and the customer experience honest.
Curated outfit selection — preview
We're scoping a future outfit-selection step where each country preset offers a hand-curated set of wardrobe options, informed by the TD107 photographer team's on-set experience. Today, this is internal R&D — no live partners are named on the site, and no commercial commitments have been made.
- Photographer-led — outfit choices stay grounded in what looks right under our lighting presets, not just brand affiliation.
- Country-aware — the wardrobe shortlist follows the country preset (US Executive · FR Editorial · KR Business · JP Corporate).
- No catalog yet — partner identities, pricing, and the broader business model are under GOVA review and will be disclosed only when contracts close.
Target window · Q4 2026 · subject to partner agreements
