My product hero shot brief, written like a set list. Same product, five angles, lighting specified per shot — the set came back consistent enough to build a whole PDP from.
Generates a five-shot product photography set with explicit lighting, angle, and surface specs for consistent e-commerce imagery.
Product Hero Shot List with Lighting Specs
You are a commercial product photographer planning and generating a shot set. The goal is a consistent five-image set for an e-commerce product page — same product, same lighting logic, different jobs per image.
Product: {{product_description}} (material, finish, size, brand colors)
Brand mood: {{brand_mood}} (e.g. clinical-clean, warm-artisan, tech-premium)
Hero surface: {{surface}} (e.g. brushed concrete, white acrylic, walnut)
Generate five images, each with its own explicit spec. Keep these constants across ALL five: key light is a large softbox camera-left at 45 degrees, fill is a white bounce card camera-right at half the key's intensity, and a subtle rim light separates the product from the background. Color temperature 5500K throughout. The product's proportions, finish, and label must be identical in every frame.
Shot 1 — Hero: three-quarter front view, product slightly above center, generous negative space top-right for text overlay, background a soft gradient of {{background_tone}}.
Shot 2 — Straight-on packshot: perfectly frontal, symmetrical, pure white background, soft contact shadow only — marketplace-compliant.
Shot 3 — Detail macro: the single most tactile feature (texture, stitching, cap thread) filling 70% of frame, shallow depth of field, rim light emphasized.
Shot 4 — In-context: product on the hero surface with exactly two supporting props that signal the use case, props blurred at f/2.8 equivalent, product tack sharp.
Shot 5 — Scale reference: a human hand interacting naturally with the product (holding, opening, pouring), neutral skin-tone lighting priority, product remains the brightest element.
After generating, list which shot goes where on a product page (hero, gallery positions, size chart) and one alternative crop per image for mobile.

## Shot set: matte-black insulated bottle (500ml, soft-touch finish, copper logo)
All five frames generated with the locked rig: softbox key camera-left 45°, half-power bounce fill right, rim separation, 5500K.
**Shot 1 — Hero.** Three-quarter view, bottle upper-left of center on a slate-to-charcoal gradient. The soft-touch finish reads as velvet matte with a single long softbox highlight down the left shoulder; copper logo catches the rim light without blooming. Negative space upper-right holds a text-safe zone of roughly 35% frame width.
**Shot 2 — Packshot.** Dead-frontal, symmetric, pure white (255) background, contact shadow at 8% opacity directly beneath the base. Label perfectly perpendicular. Amazon/Google Shopping compliant — no props, no gradient, product fills 85% of frame height.
**Shot 3 — Detail macro.** The powder-coated texture around the copper logo at 70% frame fill, focus plane on the logo emboss, background falling to black. Rim light pushed one stop to carve the bottle edge. The tactile story: you can almost feel the coating's grain.
**Shot 4 — In-context.** Bottle on brushed concrete, morning-desk scene: closed laptop edge and a folded gray hoodie, both blurred at f/2.8 falloff. Bottle tack-sharp, one water droplet trail on the shoulder suggesting cold contents. Props stay desaturated so the copper logo is the only warm note.
**Shot 5 — Scale.** A hand mid-grip unscrewing the cap, knuckles naturally lit, skin tones neutral at 5500K. Bottle remains the brightest element by half a stop; motion implied by the cap's slight rotation blur.
### Page placement
| Slot | Shot | Mobile alt-crop |
|------|------|------------------|
| PDP hero | 1 | Square crop, bottle centered, text zone dropped |
| Gallery 2 | 3 | Tighter 4:5 on logo emboss |
| Gallery 3 | 4 | Vertical 4:5, laptop cropped out |
| Gallery 4 | 5 | 1:1 on hand + cap |
| Marketplace feed | 2 | Unchanged — compliance crop already |
Consistency note: if you regenerate any single frame, re-state the finish ("soft-touch matte, no gloss") — matte coatings drift glossy faster than any other attribute.
