A good prompt is descriptive, detailed, and specific. Try to avoid common mistakes, such as not writing enough or using commanding language.
For a clear prompt, structure the instruction in the following way:
| Subject | Details | Atmosphere | Camera | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Purpose and context | Materials and finishes | Lighting and surface response | Surroundings and location | Scene elements and furniture | People | Weather and season | Focal point and depth | Photographic effects |
| → Mandatory | → Optional |
Example:
Stadium with inox metal columns and white mesh cladding, topped with a white/beige fabric roof. See-through lighting from inside. Large, asymmetrical circular opening in the roof fabric. Calm waterfront in the foreground, still water reflecting the stadium. Ethereal atmosphere with mist and fog in the forest.

Did you know?
You can prompt in Visoid in any language. We recommend English for traceability, but feel free to use your mother tongue if you prefer.

Descriptive doesn’t have to mean exhaustive. Visoid responds just as well to concise prompts that include all the essential details as it does to lengthy descriptions.

Shorter prompts also make iteration easier: you can quickly identify what needs to be adjusted and maintain better control over each change. Overly long prompts can become too restrictive, making it harder for Visoid to prioritize new instructions and produce noticeable changes when re-rendering.

If a material is described as “inox metal columns” in one image, reuse that phrase in the next. Changing between similar terms—such as stainless, metal—can lead to a visibly different material direction.
Not sure which term best describes your intent? Use the Design prompting glossary to choose precise, reusable language for materials, lighting, atmosphere, composition and camera direction.
