# Find the words for a visual idea.

Turn “make it better” into useful creative direction.

## Why try this?

Naming layout, lighting, and composition helps you give more precise feedback.

## What to bring

A description or reference image you can use, the audience, and the intended feeling.

## Your starting request

Help me describe a visual direction for [project]. I want it to feel [description] for [audience]. Suggest three distinct approaches, explaining the composition, type, colours, and one useful design term in plain English. Avoid copying a specific artist or brand. Give me a short brief for the direction I choose.

## Illustrative result

This is an authored teaching example, not a live model response.

Distinct approaches with concrete differences, such as a tightly cropped photograph versus a spacious diagram-led layout.

## Then make it fit

I prefer [direction]. Remove anything decorative that does not help the audience understand the subject.

## Before you use it

Check legibility, contrast, licensing, and whether the design communicates the intended message.

## What you are learning

Learn the name of the thing you want to change, then ask for that change.
