The Build

For the Flora technique challenge, I made a jewelry product shot generator. You give it a rough product image (bad lighting, messy background; doesn't matter) and an optional short theme description. It returns editorial-quality shots.

How It Works

You upload a product image along with a short description of the theme or style you want; that's all the setup needed. From there, the AI selects the most fitting photography concepts from a 110-idea library and builds multiple tailored prompts around your input. The result is a set of distinct visual variations covering different compositions, lighting styles, and scene setups, ready to use directly or refine further.

The Revisit

I came back to it today to see if it still holds up. It does. Tests across different pieces came out consistently strong; not pixel-perfect, and the product can shift slightly, but for the time and credits spent, the quality is hard to beat.

The Ring Worry

I was worried about rings going in. AI usually botches hands and fingers. It didn't happen here. Hand poses came out natural, no weird gestures. READ THE FULL CASE STUDY HERE

The contest is over. Isn't it?

Most AI outputs look impressive. But they still don’t feel like a real ad.

That gap is exactly what I set out to close with AUREL🚀

I didn’t approach this like prompting. I approached it like building a creative pipeline.

Everything starts with structure.

I used the Compositor Node as the core—treating every visual like a layered campaign build: • model as the primary subject • product placed with intent • controlled lighting and shadow passes • grain and texture for depth

Nothing is random. Every layer is composed to feel like it went through an actual art direction process.

That’s where the “ad feel” comes from.

Then I pushed the product beyond flat placement.

Inside the Creative Code Node, I brought in Three.js to generate a 3D version of the product.

This changed everything.

Now the product: • has real depth • reacts to light correctly • sits naturally inside the frame

It’s not pasted in—it’s constructed into the scene.

From there, I designed the system to branch into four distinct campaign directions:

- Luxury Editorial — minimal, high-contrast, fashion-first - Streetwear — gritty, neon-lit, high energy - Futuristic — cinematic, immersive, sci-fi driven - Surreal — abstract, dreamlike, expressive

Each theme has its own composition logic, not just a visual style. Workflow: https://app.fuser.studio/view/fb2d0257-c565-493f-a2a8-099d2b9dd598
