Mastering Prompts for ImagenCraft

Prompting is crucial in all modes, but the focus shifts depending on whether you are creating, editing, or customizing. Imagen models are known for strong prompt interpretation and respond well to descriptive, clear language.

​
Prompt Writing Basics: Subject, Context, and Style

A good starting point for any prompt is to define the core elements:

Subject

The main object, person, animal, or scenery.

Context/Background

The environment or setting for the subject.

Style

The artistic style (e.g., painting, photograph, sketch, or more specific styles).

After establishing these basics, refine your prompt by adding more details through iteration until the generated image aligns with your vision.
