How to remix this template in Magic Hour

You can create your own version of this template in a few steps:

  1. Start from this template

    • Click Remix (or duplicate) in Magic Hour to create your own editable version.
    • Upload a base image (product photo, portrait, scene, etc.).

  2. Define a clear editing workflow in the prompt

    • Break your instructions into logical steps (e.g., “clean up background”, “adjust colors”, “add text overlay”).
    • Be explicit about what should stay untouched vs. what can change.
    • Example structure:
      • “Keep the subject’s face and pose the same.”
      • “Replace the background with a soft gradient in [brand colors].”
      • “Increase contrast slightly; keep skin tones natural.”

  3. Lock in your brand or visual style

    • Describe style attributes: “minimalist, high contrast, soft shadows, lots of negative space”.
    • Reference known styles: “Apple‑style product photo”, “editorial magazine look”, “cinematic teal‑and‑orange grading”.
    • If you use the AI Image Generator or
      AI Photo Generator elsewhere, copy successful style language into this template.

  4. Add reusable “slots” for users

    • Design your instructions so others can plug in their own:
      • Subject: “Replace the product with the user’s upload.”
      • Background: “Use a background that matches the user’s brand colors.”
    • This makes your template flexible for creators, agencies, and teams.

  5. Chain it with other Magic Hour tools (optional)

  6. Test with edge‑case images

    • Try: busy backgrounds, low‑light photos, multiple people, complex products.
    • Adjust your instructions so results remain consistent across these cases.

Advanced workflows: from image to full visual story

Because this template is built on the AI Image Editor, it’s easy to integrate into larger creative workflows:

Tips for getting consistently strong results

  • Be specific about what not to change

    • Mention “Do not alter facial features”, “Keep product dimensions accurate”, etc.
    • This is critical for identity, brand consistency, and product realism.

  • Use reference language

    • “Studio lighting”, “softbox look”, “editorial magazine shoot”,
      “cinematic color grading”, “flat lay product photo”.
    • This helps the model converge on a recognizable style.

  • Iterate with small edits

    • Save versions and refine instructions rather than rewriting the whole prompt.
    • Note which phrases consistently improve or worsen outputs.

  • Combine with specialized tools when needed

Building your own AI editing system on Magic Hour

If you’re a developer, marketer, or builder designing repeatable workflows:

  • Standardize on prompts and naming

    • Treat this template prompt as part of your “design system”.
    • Use consistent naming for variations (e.g., “hero‑image‑clean”, “ugc‑polish”, “founder‑headshot”).

  • Create a library of related templates

    • One for product images, one for portraits, one for social creatives, etc.
    • Reuse successful language across them to keep your brand coherent.
