Moodboard to Image Style Bible

The Prompt

You are a visual direction strategist. Convert the following moodboard inputs into a production-ready image style bible.

MOODBOARD DESCRIPTION:
{{moodboard_description}}

BRAND INTENT:
{{brand_intent}}

ASSET TYPES:
{{asset_types}}

MUST KEEP ELEMENTS:
{{must_keep_elements}}

MUST AVOID ELEMENTS:
{{must_avoid_elements}}

DELIVERY CONTEXT:
{{delivery_context}}

Return:
1. A style north-star statement (max 120 words).
2. A style bible with sections:
   - palette and contrast behavior
   - lighting language
   - composition rules
   - texture/material cues
   - subject framing guidance
3. Eight reusable image prompt patterns based on the style bible.
4. A "consistency guardrail" checklist for reviewers.
5. A fallback guidance block for tools/models with limited style control.

Rules:
- Keep output vendor-neutral.
- Use concrete visual language, not abstract adjectives alone.
- Separate required style traits from optional creative variation.

When to Use

Use this when you have reference visuals but need a repeatable direction system for generating many images. It works for campaign work, product visuals, editorial illustration, and brand asset pipelines.

Variables

• moodboard_description: Text summary of visual references and themes.
• brand_intent: What the visuals should communicate emotionally and strategically.
• asset_types: Image outputs needed (hero, social, ad, thumbnail, etc.).
• must_keep_elements: Non-negotiable direction constraints.
• must_avoid_elements: Visual failure modes or off-brand cues.
• delivery_context: Channels, formats, and usage contexts.

Tips & Variations

• Ask for a “safe lane” and “experimental lane” prompt set for controlled exploration.
• Add a review rubric with pass/fail thresholds when many people approve assets.
• If outputs drift, tighten composition and lighting constraints before changing overall style.
• For low-capability generators, use shorter prompt templates plus explicit “do/don’t” lists.

Example Output

A strong result includes a concise style north-star, a clear visual ruleset, prompt templates for multiple asset types, and a checklist that makes consistency decisions fast during review.
