Panels in order: 1 wide shot of a misty trail at dawn, 2 close-up of the buckle, 3 a hiker lifting the pack, 4 walking through a forest, 5 rain on the fabric, 6 crossing a stream, 7 sunset on a ridge, 8 the pack resting by a tent, 9 hero shot of the pack on a rock. Cinematic colour grading, consistent light, a small shot number in each panel, thin white gutters, no other text.
Prompts stay in English, the language these models follow best. Copy it as it is, or change a few words.
Keep the product exactly the same in every panel: shape, colour, straps and buckles is the line that keeps your photo recognisable. Leave it in, whatever else you change.
Asking for create a 3x3 storyboard gets several panels in one picture. Describe each panel in order.
This is a fill-in template: swap the parts in braces, like {shots}, in the boxes above and keep the rest word for word.
A full commercial pitch board is generated directly from a single reference photograph using Nano Banana 2.1. By mapping out nine sequential panels and locking specific visual attributes, the model keeps the product consistent across multiple lighting setups and storytelling angles. It turns one catalog image into an actionable narrative outline.
This edit requires a clear, well-isolated product photograph so the model can accurately replicate small hardware and fabric textures across nine frames.
Works: Clean studio pack shots
A full-view product photograph on a neutral background gives the AI clear views of shape, straps, and hardware.
Works: Crisp three-quarter angles
Showing both the front and side profile helps the model reconstruct the item correctly across varied perspective shots.
Avoid: Obscured or worn items
If parts of the product are hidden behind props or cropped off, the AI will invent inconsistent replacement details.
Avoid: Busy or chaotic backgrounds
Complex scenes make it harder for the model to isolate the item identity from surrounding clutter.
What each instruction does
task and grid formatUsing the product in image 1, create a 3x3 storyboard for a 15-second commercial.
It establishes the input photo as the core reference and sets up a nine-panel grid layout. Removing this leads to a single image instead of a sequence.
consistency constraintKeep the product exactly the same in every panel: shape, colour, straps and buckles.
This phrase forces the AI to lock key design details across varied perspectives. Without these specific nouns, the product alters between frames.

It provides the concrete narrative progression from panel one through panel nine. Altering this list changes the story arc and pacing.
style and border finishCinematic colour grading, consistent light, a small shot number in each panel, thin white gutters, no other text.
This specifies clean grid borders, numbered panels, uniform grading, and suppresses unwanted advertising typography across the grid.

Model and settings
Keep the 1:1 aspect ratio because a square canvas fits a 3x3 grid with perfectly balanced frames. Set resolution to 1k for rapid iteration, and consider higher output resolution if shot numbers or fine product textures need extra clarity. Feed in exactly one clean input image featuring the complete product so the model has an unambiguous visual reference to track.
Nano Banana ProSwitch to Nano Banana Pro when you need stricter layout planning for dense multi-panel grids and higher-definition storyboard text.
When the edit misses
Product changes color, straps, or silhouette across different panels
Add strict negative enforcement or restate exact materials, such as 'exact navy canvas fabric and matte black buckles in all panels'.
The model generates a single complex scene instead of a grid
Explicitly prepend 'grid of 9 distinct frames arranged in 3 rows and 3 columns' to clarify the required layout structure.
Random advertising slogans and text appear across the images
Ensure the prompt ends with 'no other text, no logos, clean image panels' to suppress AI-generated marketing copy.
Questions about this edit prompt
How do I ensure the product looks identical in every panel?
List the core physical features explicitly, including materials, colors, and hardware elements. Providing an input picture with clear lighting and a neutral background helps the model lock onto those features across all nine frames.
Can I change the aspect ratio for widescreen commercial pitches?
Yes, you can change the ratio to 16:9, but a 3x3 grid will result in widescreen individual panels. If you switch to widescreen, consider changing the prompt structure to a 2x4 or 1x3 layout for better panel proportions.
Why are the shot numbers missing or illegible?
Small digits on multi-panel grids require sufficient pixel density. Ensure your prompt specifies 'clear numeric labels 1 to 9 in panel corners' and use higher resolution settings to keep the text crisp.
