YouTube Image Generation

Inputs

Use script.md, brand style, aspect ratio, visual references, and any restrictions on people, logos, or copyrighted material.

Process

  1. Build a visual style guide for the video.
  2. Convert each scene into one or more image prompts.
  3. Separate final-frame visuals, B-roll, diagrams, icons, and thumbnail candidates.
  4. Include negative prompts and consistency notes.
  5. Generate images when an image tool is available; otherwise output prompts.

Prompt Pattern

Use this pattern:

[subject], [action or composition], [environment], [mood],
[camera/framing], [lighting], [style], [color notes],
16:9 YouTube video frame, high detail
Avoid: [negative prompt]

Output Format

Create image-prompts.md:

# Image Prompts

## Style Guide

## Scene Images
| Scene | Purpose | Prompt | Negative Prompt | File |
|---|---|---|---|---|

## Thumbnail Candidates

## Consistency Notes

## Checks

Quality Check

Every image must support a specific narration moment. Avoid decorative visuals that do not clarify, intensify, or advance the video.
