Inputs to customise

  • subjectThe person, product, object, logo, or scene to generate.

  • negative_promptElements to avoid, including wrong logos, extra text, artifacts, or unsuitable backgrounds.

Quality checks

  • Lighting is motivated by an in-scene source — not generic studio three-point setup.
  • Color grade is explicitly described and thematically consistent with the scene.
