Plan the image around its destination

Nano Banana 2.1 offers text-to-image and image editing with output choices up to 4K in this workflow. Think about the destination before generating: a vertical character composition needs different breathing room from a wide website banner. Set the frame, then describe the subject’s position within it.

Keep the most important instruction near the beginning. State what must remain visible at the edges, especially for tall portraits or wide scenes. This page uses your prompt and optional image; web-search grounding is not part of this creator.

Character · 9:16

A character with a clear silhouette

A desert traveler with a turquoise scarf. Original anime character illustration, confident clean linework, expressive face, carefully layered clothing, restrained colors, clear silhouette, cinematic rim light. One character, no text.

Compose the figure with breathing room above the head and around the hands. Use one clear pose, a readable outline and a quieter background. Keep the face expressive without exaggerating the anatomy.

Let the clothing show a small amount of fabric texture. Use soft environmental light and a restrained highlight along the silhouette. The result should feel like a thoughtfully composed character study, not a collage of unrelated styles.

Product · 1:1

A considered product composition

A polished copper coffee pot on dark linen. Premium product still life, precise material detail, soft studio key light, subtle contact shadow, generous negative space, realistic photography, no lettering or logos.

Place the object slightly below the center with ample empty space above it. Keep the material and geometry consistent. Add a soft contact shadow to ground the object, with no distracting props.

Use one broad key light and a subtle fill. Preserve believable reflections and fine surface texture. The composition should read clearly at thumbnail size while retaining detail when viewed larger.

How to get started with Nano Banana 2.1

Define the composition

Choose the frame for your Nano Banana 2.1 image before filling in the details. Name the main subject and its position. A product centered on a table needs a different brief from a character standing near the edge of a landscape.

Add a visual treatment

Describe the medium, palette and direction of light. Keep those choices compatible: a soft watercolor study and a glossy studio photograph are different assignments.

Review one result at a time

Check anatomy, object edges, lettering and the crop at full size. Change the instruction that caused the problem instead of appending a long list of unrelated adjectives.
