Adapted prompt template

Copyable derivative prompt

This page turns the source case "Reference Frame Scene Direction" into a reusable comparison & community pattern that can be adapted without copying the original prompt verbatim.

Best for

A/B testing, reference-frame direction, model bake-offs, prompt refinement studies, and showcase boards built for evaluation rather than one-off art.

Why it works

Comparison prompts create value when they hold all variables steady except the one being tested, preserve labels and layout, and explain the evaluation axes directly inside the brief.

Source lineage

Reference Frame Scene Direction by @HuliJason

Use a reference-led image brief to direct reference-image scene direction where edits stay anchored to the frame.

Reference asset: {{reference_image_or_frame}}
Elements that must stay fixed: {{composition_subject_wardrobe_geometry}}
Directed changes: {{camera_move_action_pose_expression_or_prop_changes}}
Annotation style: {{arrows_notes_boxes_or_overlays}}
Output ratio: {{aspect_ratio}}

Quality rules:
- state exactly what must remain unchanged
- avoid broad style changes that rewrite the whole frame
- keep edit instructions concrete enough to verify

What to change first

  • evaluation target
  • fixed variables
  • comparison layout
  • labels or captions
  • reference image handling
  • success criteria

Common failure modes

  • changing multiple variables between comparison panels
  • forgetting labels, legends, or captions
  • showcase boards with no evaluation axis
  • reference edits that do not specify what must stay fixed

Attribution and reuse boundary

This page is an original derivative pattern built from a public community case collected by EvoLinkAI's awesome-gpt-image-2-prompts repository and the linked creator post. It keeps attribution intact while avoiding verbatim prompt reuse.
