Toys and games should feel fun but still clear and trustworthy. Keep the product unchanged; generate playful environments and props around it.
Tool-Agnostic Prompt Grammar
Use three parts in this order for more reliable results:
- Prompt (Scene First): environment, surface, props, lighting, camera feel
- Lock (Product Must Not Change): keep the original product photo exactly unchanged
- Negative: forbid deformation, duplication, relabeling, and unwanted artifacts
Non-Negotiables: Product Lock
- Mask the entire product (not just the label) when inpainting backgrounds
- Preserve exact geometry, proportions, perspective, and color
- Keep packaging graphics and logos exactly as photographed (no relabeling)
- Keep the product as the single hero (avoid duplicates)
Text Options (User Chooses)
Option A: Blank Space for Later Typography (Most Reliable)
Generate clean negative space and add copy in your design tool.
Option B: AI-Generated Typography (If Your Tool Handles Text Well)
If you generate text in-image, keep it short, bold, and high-contrast. Avoid tiny fonts. Expect occasional misspellings.
