For mood boards: multi-panel grid with color swatches + product shots
For brand identity: follow 5-step workflow (concept → formula → variations → consistency → iterate)

Product Prompt Templates

Suspended Product Shot

Camera slowly [orbits/rotates around] a [product] [suspended/floating] above
[surface/field]. [Light type] [pulses/reflects/cascades] across [material].
[Atmospheric element: mist/fog/particles]. Sound: [ambient tone] + [accent sound].

Macro Reveal

[Extreme/Ultra] close-up of [product detail]. Camera [glides/pushes in] to reveal
[texture/feature]. [Light behavior on material]. [Background treatment].
Sound: [material-specific sound], [ambient pad].

Dramatic Rotation

[Product] rotates [slowly/precisely] on [surface]. Camera [tracks/orbits] at
[angle]. [Lighting direction] creates [shadow/reflection effect].
[Color palette]. Sound: [atmospheric tone], [mechanical/organic accent].

Lifestyle Integration

[Person/hand] [interacts with product] in [environment]. Camera [movement].
[Natural lighting]. [Emotional tone]. Focus [racks/shifts] from [element] to [product].
Sound: [ambient environment], [subtle music].

Unboxing / Assembly

[Product/component] [rises/assembles/unfolds] from [starting state].
Camera [cranes/follows] as parts [snap/lock/magnetize] into place.
[Light builds] as assembly completes. Final form [glows/activates].
Sound: [mechanical sequence], [completion chime/tone].

Mood Board Prompting

Structure

multi-panel mood board [split into N boxes], [Brand/Theme],
seamlessly blend lifestyle images, color swatches, [product shots],
in a [clean/symmetrical] layout. [Color scheme], [aesthetic direction]

Tips

Open with multi-panel mood board
Specify panel count: split into 8 boxes
Name specific product types to include
Specify color scheme explicitly
Use permutation prompts for color variants: {mint, orange, lime}

Brand Identity Workflow

Step 1: Define Concept

Establish brand positioning, target audience, setting, quality tier.

Step 2: Create Prompt Formula

Build a reusable template with fill-in-the-blank slots:

Capture an epic [type of photography] of the [specific location/object],
showcasing [desired style] in [location]. Use a [camera] and [lens],
setting [resolution], [ISO], and [shutter speed]. Frame to include
[features] and [surrounding landscape] under [weather]. Direct [lighting]
to emphasize [color/effect], underscoring [atmosphere].

Step 3: Generate Variations

Feed formula + brief to produce multiple prompt variations for:

Hero/establishing shots (drone, wide angle)
Interior/exterior details
Product close-ups
People/lifestyle
Food/beverage (if applicable)

Step 4: Maintain Consistency

Keep constant across all generated images:

Camera body + lens (e.g., Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM)
Lighting direction and quality
Color palette / warmth
Architectural/environmental style language

Step 5: Iterate Per Category

Adjust only subject and framing while keeping the brand formula intact.

Platform Considerations

Platform	Format	Key Trait
TikTok/Reels	9:16 vertical	Hook in 1-2 sec, bold colors, high energy
YouTube Shorts	9:16 vertical	Slightly more cinematic, sound design matters
Instagram Feed	1:1 or 4:5	Clean aesthetic, strong as still frame
Brand Video	16:9 landscape	Full cinematic, premium sound, multiple shot types
