    "Oversized italic condensed sans-serif headline cropped by the page edges",
    "Three-tier hierarchy that alternates between title bands, technical panels, and a dominant racing image",
    "High-contrast palette of near-black, warm off-white, graphite gray, and concentrated signal yellow",
    "Dense but disciplined editorial information blocks built from thin rules, outlined boxes, square markers, and small diagrams",
    "Low front three-quarter action perspective with the vehicle breaking across the graphic grid",
    "Wet-track or high-contrast night lighting with controlled specular reflections",
    "Matte print-paper texture and subtle halftone grain over crisp hard-edged geometry",
    "Repeated diagonal hazard-stripe accents used sparingly as a visual punctuation mark",
    "Large white typographic band placed behind or partly occluded by the subject",
    "Technical dossier mood that feels engineered, organized, and energetic rather than futuristic or decorative"
  ],
  "source_content_to_avoid": [
    "The source BMW race car and any recognizable automotive silhouette from it",
    "All source racing teams, sponsors, brand logos, emblems, and manufacturer marks",
    "The source M-Power wording and any closely related title treatment",
    "The source ROWE, FANATEC, Pirelli, Puma, and other sponsor or partner identifiers",
    "The source number 98, car livery, windshield markings, and specific track image",
    "The source Chicago wording, technical labels, product codes, and exact data-card copy",
    "The source QR codes, barcodes, watermarks, signatures, and archival marks",
    "The source exact grid positions, panel sequence, and subject-to-page composition"
  ],
  "visual_deconstruction": "The visual system treats the poster as a technical race dossier. Macro typography carries the first read, grid-based specification cards create an engineered middle read, and an original automotive action photograph creates the emotional focal point. Graphic density comes from modular blocks rather than dense readable prose.",
  "composition": "Use a bold headline band at the upper edge, a modular technical panel zone, a second cropped title band, and an original fictional race vehicle that crosses the lower or central field. Preserve generous contrast between dense interface-like blocks and open photographic surfaces. For wide formats, extend the title and information system laterally while keeping the vehicle as the dominant focal point.",
  "typography": "Use heavy, condensed, italic grotesk display lettering for major headlines. Render only a few large clear words. Secondary information should be represented by short labels and abstract micro-glyphs, not long copy or brand language. Crop headline letters at page edges for kinetic scale.",

  },
  "photographic_direction": "Original fictional electric GT-racing vehicles photographed at low three-quarter action angles on wet circuits, with night floodlights, road spray, controlled reflections, and no real badges or recognizable production-car identity.",
  "design_rules": [
    "Use original fictional vehicle forms, fictional unit codes, and neutral event language only.",
    "Make one or two headline words visually legible; turn all smaller blocks into non-readable graphic glyph systems.",
    "Treat signal yellow as an accent rather than a full-field background.",
    "Keep information panels modular and rectilinear, with thin black rules and ample off-white substrate.",
    "Let the vehicle intentionally overlap the typography and technical grid.",
    "Keep texture tactile but controlled, with no digital noise or accidental compression artifacts."
  ],
  "do": [
    "Use cinematic wet-track reflections and original racing action.",
    "Use cropped display type, hazard stripes, coordinate marks, and data-card geometry.",
    "Keep the page dense, orderly, and editorially legible at a distance."
  ],
  "avoid": [
    "Do not use real automotive brands, team identities, logos, sponsors, racing series, or recognizable vehicle models.",
    "Do not reuse source vehicle, livery, numbers, wording, codes, QR codes, barcodes, or panel placement.",
    "Do not turn the design into neon cyberpunk, a generic gaming poster, or an unreadable wall of tiny text."

  "negative_prompt": "Real brand logos, sponsor graphics, real racing teams, recognizable vehicle models, source car livery, source wording, QR code, barcode, watermark, signature, copied panel positions, dense readable microtext, illegible gibberish paragraphs, neon cyberpunk, generic video-game UI, muddy noise, oversharpening, or accidental compression artifacts.",
