Challenge

Solution

Developed a Midjourney character reference system with detailed seed prompts, consistent lighting descriptors, and a 12-image reference sheet. Created production templates for 8 recurring image categories.

Results

500-image library delivered in 3 days. Brand character consistency rated 9.2/10 by the creative director (vs 7.1/10 for previous human-produced content). Social engagement increased 34% with the new imagery.
