Best use cases

  • High-detail product scenes, editorial campaigns, ad concepts, cinematic images, and brand art direction.
  • Prompts that include layout, on-image text, factual context, or multi-step visual constraints.
  • Final Gemini-based exports where 4K detail matters.
  • Reference-driven scenes with a clear style board and multiple product or character references.

Where to be careful

  • Very cheap or very fast first-pass brainstorming where Nano Banana is sufficient.
  • Simple variants that do not need Pro-level reasoning.
  • Workflows that specifically need OpenAI GPT Image 2 behavior or its broader app aspect-ratio list.

Workflow

01

Define the goal

Tell the model whether the result is an ad, poster, product scene, edit, or UI asset.

02

Number constraints

Break complex requirements into clear numbered visual rules.

03

Use references intentionally

Assign each reference a role and ask for consistent light, material, and subject handling.

Prompting guidance

  • Give the model the goal first: ad hero, poster, product image, UI asset, or edit.
  • Spell out text exactly and keep it short when typography matters.
  • Use numbered constraints for complex scenes so details are easier to preserve.
  • When using references, define each image's role and ask for consistency across subject, lighting, and material.

Copy-ready prompts

Example 1

Create a 4K luxury perfume ad for a jasmine fragrance, glass bottle on wet black stone, white petals, golden rim light, clean headline text "NIGHT JASMINE", premium editorial photography.

Example 2

Use the product references to create a consistent three-image campaign concept: hero image, close-up detail, and lifestyle shot, same warm lighting, same materials, no extra logos.

Example 3

Generate a detailed infographic-style product comparison image for four AI image models, clean SaaS visual language, readable labels, dark background, orange and violet accents.
