SELECTED
Garry Kasparov
primary
A 34-year-old chess grandmaster with intense dark eyes, short black hair, and a strong, athletic build. His face shows the strain of intense concentration, with faint lines of fatigue around his eyes. His posture is upright but tense, reflecting the pressure of the moment.
IBM Team Lead
primary
A middle-aged man in his late 40s, with a lean build and sharp features. His short, neatly trimmed hair is starting to gray at the temples, and he wears wire-rimmed glasses that reflect the glow of the computer screens. His posture is upright, exuding confidence and authority.
Chess Referee
secondary
A middle-aged man with a lean build, short gray hair neatly combed, and wire-rimmed glasses perched on his nose. His posture is upright, exuding authority and professionalism.
IBM Technician
secondary
A young man in his late 20s, with a lean build and short, neatly trimmed brown hair. He wears wire-rimmed glasses that reflect the glow of the monitors he's observing. His posture is slightly hunched from hours of focused work, and his hands are poised over a keyboard, ready to respond to any system alerts.
Press Photographer
background
A middle-aged man with a wiry build, wearing glasses with thick frames. His short, dark hair is slightly tousled from the intensity of the moment. He has a camera strap around his neck and a press badge clipped to his shirt.
