Social Media Image Prompts

Social prompts must name the platform, crop, visual hook, subject, contrast, and empty space for captions. This pack prioritizes prompts that can become reusable campaign directions.

Generate visual options, then add final text and compliance details in the publishing workflow.

Define the placement before the style. A square feed post, vertical story, short-video cover, wide community banner, and small thumbnail impose different safe areas and reading distances. State the single visual hook, intended audience, subject scale, background complexity, contrast, and where copy or interface overlays will sit. Ask for a composition that survives cropping instead of merely naming a platform aesthetic. If a campaign needs several formats, generate from one stable art direction and deliberately recompose each crop rather than stretching or automatically trimming the first image.

Adapt the curated examples as a system. Keep the hook, palette, lighting, and image treatment while changing subject, product, season, or audience. Produce a small set of variants for testing, but record the hypothesis behind each difference so performance data remains interpretable. Check the result at actual mobile size and with interface elements overlaid. Add final headlines, subtitles, prices, hashtags, and calls to action in the publishing tool, where spelling, localization, contrast, and line breaks can be controlled.

Review social assets for context and rights before scheduling. Remove accidental logos, protected characters, misleading product depictions, unlicensed likenesses, and visual claims that the post copy cannot support. Confirm whether a synthetic-media disclosure, paid-partnership label, accessibility description, or regional legal note is required. Keep source attribution and commercial-use cautions with the working file, and route sensitive topics through brand and policy review. Monitor comments and performance after publication, but do not confuse engagement with factual accuracy or permission to reuse an upstream asset.

Archive the approved crops, copy, alt text, source record, and campaign owner so later variants inherit reviewed material instead of repeating the same compliance work.
