Running it, start to finish
- Describe the idea, where it will be used, and anything that must not appear.
- Generate the main prompt and the three variants, then pick a direction.
- Iterate one element at a time using the supplied path.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Specifies the decisions the model would otherwise fill with its own average, which is what makes output look like stock.
- Uses camera and light direction, the two most under-used and highest-leverage controls.
- Warns where legible text is required, since image models remain unreliable at it.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Name the target model. Prompt register differs a lot between them — Midjourney rewards dense phrasing where others prefer natural sentences.
- Change one element at a time. when iterating. Changing three makes it impossible to tell which one helped, which is how sessions turn into slot machines.
- Composite text separately. Even where a model gets words right occasionally, it will not do so reliably across a set, and a brand asset needs reliability.
