How to Write Effective Prompts

✅ Basic Formula: Prompt = Subject + Scene + Style

Subject: Main focus (e.g., “a vintage bicycle”).
Scene: Environment details (e.g., “parked by a sunlit cobblestone path”).
Style: Artistic look (e.g., “realistic watercolor”).

Prompts example	Result
A modern workspace with a wooden desk, natural light, and a laptop open to a design app
European girl, looking into the camera, wearing elegant attire. Commercial photography, outdoors, cinematic lighting, half - body close - up, delicate light makeup, sharp edges.

✅ Advanced Formula for Pro Users: Prompt = Subject (description) + Scene (description) + Style + Camera Language + Atmosphere + Detail Enhancements

Camera Language: Close-up, long shot, eye-level angle.
Atmosphere: Dreamy, dramatic, minimalist.
Detail Enhancements: High-resolution, intricate textures, lighting effects.

Prompts example	Result
Hand-painted illustration style, European and American picture books, a cute orange cat with big, bright eyes, a smile, and a cocked tail. The cat’s fur is fine and soft, its ears are pointed, and its whiskers are long and thin. The background is a simple white or light-colored background, highlighting the cat’s playfulness and cuteness. Cartoon style, the picture is simple and bright, and the colors are bright. Close-up, front view.
Dark style: A warrior in a black eye mask, with long night-dark hair and a tattered cape, stands firm. Her sharp eyes under the mask exude determination. Clutching her weapon, she’s ready to fight, agile yet powerful. The desolate battlefield and smoky sky heighten tension, creating a mysterious, deadly atmosphere.
Oil painting style portrait of a woman with distinct facial features. Her features are three-dimensional, her eyes are deep, her lips are full, and her skin is delicate. The picture uses warm colors, with obvious brushstrokes and thick paint. The background is simple, highlighting the figure. Close-up, central composition.

By mastering prompt structure, you’ll get precise, consistent results every time.
