What this prompt produced

The mug stays dominant in the lower safe area while the open wall above provides breathing room on a phone screen.
The master prompt
Create a high-impact full-screen 9:16 social media campaign image for [SUBJECT] in [SETTING], composed with [COMPOSITION] for mobile-first vertical viewing. Keep a safe visual hierarchy, protect important details from top and bottom mobile UI overlays, and use layered depth, polished visual storytelling, [LIGHTING], [PALETTE], and intentional breathing room for optional copy added later. Avoid readable text, logos, watermarks, clutter, and distorted anatomy or objects.

Same master prompt, different variables
Demo variations

Demo 01
a colorful ceramic mug
- SETTING
- a sunlit creative desk
- COMPOSITION
- a close lifestyle hero with foreground depth
- LIGHTING
- soft window light
- PALETTE
- cobalt, coral, cream
The mug stays dominant in the lower safe area while the open wall above provides breathing room on a phone screen.

Demo 02
a pair of running shoes
- SETTING
- an early morning city bridge
- COMPOSITION
- a low-angle dynamic product view
- LIGHTING
- crisp directional sunrise
- PALETTE
- black, citrus, concrete gray
The low angle makes the shoe immediately legible and the bridge lines pull the eye upward without text overlays.

Demo 03
a botanical hair-care bottle
- SETTING
- a lush bathroom shelf
- COMPOSITION
- a layered product hero with open upper space
- LIGHTING
- diffused humid daylight
- PALETTE
- green, pale peach, white
The bottle remains centered and readable through the foliage, with the upper area left calm for later platform-safe layout.

Demo 04
wireless headphones
- SETTING
- a minimal commuter train
- COMPOSITION
- a quiet seated lifestyle composition
- LIGHTING
- cool overhead light
- PALETTE
- charcoal, silver, muted lilac
The seated commuter scene keeps the headphones and face inside the visual safe zone while the train windows add vertical depth.
Consistency / testing notes
Mobile-first focal hierarchyCONSISTENT
All four regenerated 9:16 demos keep a clear subject in a strong phone-screen viewing zone.
UI-safe compositionMOSTLY CONSISTENT
Upper and lower breathing room is preserved, although usable copy space varies with the subject.
Layered campaign contextCONSISTENT
Lifestyle context supports the focal product or person without fake text or interface overlays.
All four demos use final master prompt version v2-vertical-social-9x16; only declared variable values changed. Four authentic generations were assessed as one set.
Tips for better results
- Use foreground depth carefully so it supports rather than hides the subject.
- Use a strong palette contrast without adding fake logos.
- Add captions and platform typography after generation.
Limitations
- Feed crops and platform rendering may change the final presentation.
- Small objects, text, and brand details may be inconsistent.
- Engagement or campaign performance is not guaranteed.
