The outcome
Produce a useful concept image whose source, prompt, limitations, and approval status remain clear.
Step by step
A workflow you can repeat.
- 01
Write a brief with audience, placement, subject, composition, style, exact copy space, prohibited elements, rights, disclosure, and acceptance criteria.
- 02
Use a non-sensitive prompt and the lowest useful resolution, avoiding living-artist imitation, unauthorized people, protected characters, and unverifiable factual scenes.
- 03
Generate a small set, record the tool and settings, and choose on composition rather than polishing the first plausible output.
- 04
Inspect anatomy, identity, logos, text, cultural representation, background logic, artifacts, source similarity, and any factual or commercial implication.
- 05
Revise deliberately, create exact typography externally, obtain brand and rights approval, disclose material generation, and archive the brief, prompt, candidates, and final.
Working standard
What good use looks like.
- Start with a written acceptance test.
- Keep exact text outside generation.
- Never imply an unverified real event.
