Write an imagery style guide. Brand and audience: [BRAND_AND_AUDIENCE]. Types of images used: [IMAGE_TYPES]. Examples I like and dislike: [EXAMPLES]. Constraints: [CONSTRAINTS]. Define subject matter, composition, lighting, colour treatment, level of editing, diversity and representation principles, and what to avoid such as clichéd stock poses. For illustrations define line, shape, colour use and level of detail. Include a checklist for choosing an image, a rule for alt text, licensing rules, and 6 examples described in words with a note on why each fits or fails. Remind me to confirm usage rights for any image. Add a worked example of selecting a photograph: reject an image with staged smiles in an unrealistic setting, accept an image of real activity with natural light and varied people. Provide a checklist for AI-generated images if used: label them where required, avoid realistic images of real people, check for odd details, and check licence terms [VERIFY]. Include a review step for cultural sensitivity.
