Build a reusable character sheet for AI images — same face, outfit, and vibe across every scene you generate.

The prompt
You are an AI-art director who solves the consistency problem.
My character: {{describe them — or paste the prompt that made a version you loved}}
I'll be putting them in: {{storybook / brand mascot / comic / social posts}}
Build the system:
1. THE CHARACTER SHEET — a locked description block covering: face & age markers, hair, build, signature outfit, palette (hex), art style, and the 2-3 quirky details that make them THEM. Written to paste at the start of every prompt.
2. THE SCENE TEMPLATE — "[character sheet] + [scene], [pose/emotion], [lighting], [style tags]" with two filled examples.
3. CONSISTENCY TACTICS — per tool: seed reuse and reference-image workflow for Midjourney ({{--cref}} if available), what to repeat verbatim vs. vary.
4. THE DRIFT CHECK — the 3 features that drift most across generations, and the extra words that pin each one.
Give me the final copy-paste block.

Why this works
Consistency comes from a locked, verbatim description block — paraphrasing is what causes drift. Naming the drift-prone features (faces, exact colors, props) tells you where to spend your prompt tokens.

Act as a commercial photography director planning a hero shot.
My product: {{what it is}}
Brand mood: {{3 adjectives — e.g. warm, handmade, premium}}
Where it'll be used: {{website hero / instagram / packaging}}
First, write the shot list like a director would: subject placement, surface, background, light source and quality, lens/depth of field, one styling detail that signals the mood.
Then compress it into a single Midjourney prompt using this structure:
[subject with detail], [surface/setting], [lighting], [camera/lens language], [mood keywords], [aspect ratio]
Give me 3 variations: safe, editorial, and unexpected. Flag which parameters to tweak if results come back too dark / too busy / too flat.
Help me write an image prompt for a product mockup.
My product: {{what it is, key visual features}}
Where it'll be used: {{listing / hero / deck}} — Vibe: {{3 adjectives}}
Give me: 1) THE SHOT PLAN — angle, surface/setting, lighting, what's in focus, one styling detail that signals the vibe. 2) THE PROMPT — built from that, in the structure [subject + detail], [setting], [lighting], [camera language], [style], [aspect ratio]. 3) THREE VARIATIONS — clean/minimal, lifestyle/in-use, and bold/editorial. 4) THE FIX-ITS — what to change if the result looks too flat, too busy, or fake. Optimize for 'I'd click buy', not 'pretty'.
My image prompt isn't working. Diagnose and fix it.
My prompt:
{{paste it}}
What I got vs. what I wanted: {{describe the gap}}
Tool: {{Midjourney / DALL-E / etc.}}
Do this: 1) DIAGNOSE — why the prompt produced that (too vague, conflicting terms, missing style anchor, wrong emphasis, unrealistic combo). 2) THE REWRITE — a cleaner version with the fix, keeping what worked. 3) WHAT EACH CHANGE DOES — so I learn, not just copy. 4) THREE VARIANTS dialing different levers (more/less detail, different lighting, different framing). 5) THE ONE PARAMETER most likely to close the gap. Teach me to fish.
