How to use Wan 2.5 Image (Text‑to‑Image)

  1. Step 1

    Describe the subject and composition

    State who/what the subject is, the framing (close‑up, medium, wide), and the environment. Keep sentences concise to reduce ambiguity.

  2. Step 2

    Anchor lighting and palette

    Use short anchors like ‘golden hour rim‑light’, ‘soft studio key’, or ‘neon magenta/cyan’ to lock mood and color.

  3. Step 3

    Pick a style

    Photorealistic, anime, painterly, sketch, or illustrative. Add lens/grade notes for a filmic look (e.g., 85mm portrait, soft teal‑orange).

  4. Step 4

    Set size and aspect

    Select square (1:1), portrait (3:4 or 9:16), or landscape (4:3 or 16:9). Adjust width/height for your target placement.

  5. Step 5

    Refine with negatives (optional)

    Add negatives such as ‘low quality, over‑sharpening, extra limbs, text artifacts’ to improve consistency.

  6. Step 6

    Iterate one change at a time

    Small, focused edits reveal what works. Save strong versions to build a repeatable style for your brand.
