EXAMPLE — MADE WITH THIS EXACT PROMPT

POV Caption Card example ad

THE PROMPT — COPY, SWAP THE BRACKETS, RUN

Vertical 4:5 static built to camouflage as an organic post. Top 80 percent of the frame: a candid lifestyle photo of [SCENE WITH PRODUCT — e.g. "a woman lacing up cream Perlo linen sneakers on sunlit apartment stairs"], shot like a friend took it on a phone — 26mm equivalent, natural window light, honest shadows, slightly imperfect framing, true-to-life color with gently lifted blacks and faint grain. No studio polish, no prop styling. Bottom 20 percent: a flat pure-white caption bar with a hard edge and no border. Caption text left-aligned in plain black system-style sans (SF Pro or Helvetica feel), verbatim: "POV: you found the one pair of shoes you never have to think about again." Beneath it, smaller and in mid-gray: "everyone keeps asking where they're from". No logo, no badge, no rounded card, no drop shadow on the bar — it should read like a caption under a reposted photo. Keep the subject's face out of frame or softly out of focus so the product stays the hero. All text crisp and unwarped, correct spelling, no watermark, no UI icons, no emoji rendered in the image.

HOW TO RUN IT

  1. Describe one honest, phone-shot moment with your product — resist studio lighting, the amateur look is the hook.
  2. Rewrite the POV line in your customer's voice; keep it under 15 words.
  3. Run untouched as a 4:5 feed static — no logo overlay, no CTA button baked into the image.
