  • Describe the subject, visual treatment and intended placement in a concise brief.

Optional input

Use a reference when it adds direction

A reference is optional for this workflow. Add one when it helps guide the subject, composition, or treatment.

  • Upload the earlier result for visual guidance and state the atmosphere to change; each edit is a new generation.
  • A written brief is enough to create a new scene from scratch.

Settings

Choose a practical output format

Select a model and choose the available output settings for the intended placement. Use a portrait crop for a cover or a wide crop for a banner.

  • A prior image guides a new edit only when supplied as a reference; structure and small details may still change.
  • Review the available settings and credit estimate before submitting.
