Tips for Better Illusion Prompts
Add composition cues — camera angle, framing, and background — to keep Illusion results consistent across a shoot or series.
Iterate in small steps — generate a base Illusion image first, then refine lighting and styling in follow-up prompts.
Layer in lighting details like "soft diffused light" or "dramatic side light" to give Illusion prompts more depth and realism.
Include color palette or texture words to make Illusion generations feel more intentional and less generic.
