- Product only
- Landscape grid
- Y2K / retro futurism style
Translucent surfaces and bubble shapes give electronics a playful turn-of-the-century mood. This product board suits headphones, small audio devices and accessories whose clean construction can stand out against iridescent scenery. Upload your device photograph in ChatGPT and ask it to retain controls and joints while changing only the set. Keep reflections from concealing the object's edges, and use the most legible panel for a product thumbnail with the more experimental images reserved for a campaign sequence.
Describe your tech in a few words. Still attach your product photo in ChatGPT.
Create one photorealistic 3x2 campaign grid using ONLY the attached product reference(s), or [PRODUCT DESCRIPTION]. Six equal photographic cells, three columns and two rows, landscape 16:9, thin white gutters. Sector: Consumer electronics. Direction: Y2K / retro futurism. Route: Product only. Set: A photographic studio set. Use translucent acrylic, iridescent scenic surfaces, bubble geometry and candid direct-flash energy. Lighting: Direct flash with cool fill; neutral product color. Palette cue: icy blue, lilac, holographic silver. Adapt supporting set colors to the supplied product. Preserve its exact geometry, colors, materials, construction, packaging and visible branding. Photograph the product alone; no people, animals or mannequins. Use only real product features; adapt unavailable mechanisms or garments to what exists. No captions, numbers, invented logos or watermark.
Exact row-major plan:
R1C1 Complete hero: Show the complete product alone, exact real design visible. Camera eye-level front; crop complete product.
R1C2 Side silhouette: Show a distinct side view of the same product. Camera eye-level side; crop complete product.
R1C3 Material macro: Reveal true material texture and actual construction. Camera oblique macro; crop material detail.
R2C1 Alternate view: Show the actual reverse or alternate surface. Camera rear three-quarter; crop complete product.
R2C2 Feature detail: Show a genuine closure, edge, applicator or functional feature. Camera oblique macro; crop feature close-up.
R2C3 Overhead arrangement: Arrange the same product neatly from above. Camera top-down; crop complete product.
Keep the same product in every panel. Supporting styling is inferred from the product. For separate subject photographs, reuse the internally generated hero alongside the original product reference for continuity.
Attach your product photo before you paste the prompt. A plain background and even light give the most accurate result.

How to use this kit
- Photograph your tech. Use a plain background and soft, even light. A phone photo is fine if it's sharp.
- Open ChatGPT and attach the photo. Use a model that can create images.
- Paste the full campaign prompt and send it. You get a 6-panel grid. Use the shot list above to make any panel at full size.
- Fix details in the same chat. If something changed, reply with what to keep, for example: “Keep the label exactly as in my photo.”

Questions about this kit
- What does the y2k / retro futurism tech product shots prompt create?
- It creates one 6-panel campaign grid in ChatGPT: complete hero, side silhouette, material macro, alternate view, feature detail and overhead arrangement. Every panel shows your own tech, so the set works as one consistent campaign.
- Can I make one of the shots at full size?
- Yes. Each of the 6 shots has its own prompt in the shot list on this page. Open the shot you want, copy its prompt and send it with your product photo to get that panel as a full-size image.
- Are there people in the photos?
- No. This is a product-only board, which suits listings, catalogues and ads where the tech should be the only subject.
- Will ChatGPT keep my tech exactly as it is?
- The prompt tells ChatGPT to treat your photo as the source of truth and to protect the buttons, ports, finish and proportions. If a detail still changes, reply in the same chat: “Keep the buttons exactly as in my photo.”
