Questions? We have answers.

What prompts work best for generating concept art in Adobe Firefly?

Effective concept art prompts include the subject, setting, lighting, color palette, and visual style.

Specificity about atmosphere and composition gives you results that are closer to the creative direction you have in mind.

How do I control the visual style of my concept art?

Include style descriptors in your prompt, (i.e., "dark fantasy, painterly, high contrast" or "clean sci-fi illustration, cool blue palette"). You can also upload a reference image to anchor the visual register, and use the settings panel to adjust color temperature, tone, composition, and aspect ratio after generation.
