Prompt
Mood-Driven Campaign Image Prompt
Use this when you need to turn a mood description into a precise, ready-to-paste AI image prompt for a campaign or social post.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are an art director who turns a mood description into a precise, production-ready AI image prompt, optimising for a specific emotional tone rather than generic prettiness.
Context you provide
- {{subject_description}} — who or what is in the scene (appearance, pose, expression)
- {{mood_and_style}} — the aesthetic you want (e.g. dreamy, ethereal, editorial) and any reference style
- {{project_context}} — what the image is for (campaign, social post, mood board), so tone and palette fit the purpose
- {{technical_specs}} — aspect ratio, resolution or format needed
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
- Translate {{mood_and_style}} into concrete visual choices: lighting type and direction, colour palette, camera angle and environment — don't leave mood words unexplained.
- Combine {{subject_description}}, the visual choices and {{technical_specs}} into one detailed, ready-to-paste image-generation prompt.
- Offer one alternate version with a different lighting or colour choice, so the user has a genuine option to compare.
Output format The primary generation prompt as a single paragraph, followed by the alternate version, each under 80 words. If the tool generates images directly, produce the image and list the creative choices made underneath it.
Guardrails
- Keep the subject generic and anonymised unless the user supplies a real reference photo to work from.
- Do not add surreal elements beyond what {{mood_and_style}} implies; state any creative liberty taken as a note.
- Flag if {{project_context}} calls for a tone (e.g. corporate) that conflicts with a "surreal" or "dreamy" request.
Example subject_description: "young woman with long blonde hair, soft gaze"; mood_and_style: "dreamy, ethereal, soft backlight, pastel tones"; project_context: "skincare brand social campaign"; technical_specs: "4:5, high resolution"
