What the director is told
One frame divided into six equal panels, two columns by three rows, telling the whole preparation in order: everything laid out from above, the first real step in close-up with hands working, the middle stages where the parts come together, and the last panel a full hero shot of the finished thing. One consistent world across all six — same surface, same props, same daylight, same palette — so the panels read as one photograph cut into six. Small plain numerals mark the panels; no words anywhere, the studio sets any labels afterwards. Premium food-and-craft photography, shallow depth of field, honest textures, realistic liquid behaviour.
This is the brief every shot is written to. Your product replaces the example's; the world stays.

Questions
FAQ
Good questions
Can I use a creator with a viral format?
Five formats put a creator on camera — editorial cover, selfie vlog, unfiltered selfie, beauty demo and fashion editorial. The rest are product-led, so the creator step disappears.
Do the formats work for ad images too?
Most do. In the wizard the image looks show the formats that make sense as a still, including three that only exist as images: the flagship poster, the step-by-step grid and the 3-view product sheet.
Will my product look like the example?
The world will; the product will be yours. Every recipe keeps the product exactly as photographed, and the first frame is checked for it before filming.
