# BEBECHIC — Image generation

Visual language: `https://cdn.bebechic.vn/docs/README.md` (Imagery + Visual Foundations). This skill turns it into promptable recipes for image models (Midjourney, DAL·E, Firefly, Ideogram, SD, etc.).

> **HARD RULE — mascots are not generated.** The croc (Cá sấu Bebechic) and girl (Cô gái Bebechic) are fixed brand characters. Never prompt a model to create or redraw them — an AI version will be off-model and dilute the brand. Composite the official PNGs from `https://cdn.bebechic.vn/images/mascots/` instead. Models may generate *scenes, products, and generic doodle motifs* (clouds, sparkles, flowers) — never the branded characters.

## Brand look in words

Warm, light, airy, low-saturation. Pastel mint + cream, deep-teal accents. Soft daylight, cream cyclorama. Editorial but friendly. Rounded, gentle, hand-made feel. Never neon, never dark, never glossy/3D.

## Recipe A — Product / lifestyle photography

**Prompt skeleton:**
```
[product] on a soft cream (#FFFCF5) cyclorama background, warm natural daylight,
editorial fashion photography, low saturation pastel palette, mint and cream tones,
gentle soft shadows, minimal calm styling, airy negative space, shot on 50mm,
soft focus background, cohesive Gen-Z Vietnamese fashion brand aesthetic
```
- Model-on-cream is the house style; if a model is in frame, keep styling minimal and light.
- Product should sit calm and centered with breathing room, matching the "sits inside a rounded frame" layout logic.

## Recipe B — Doodle / spot illustration (non-mascot)

```
simple hand-drawn doodle illustration, thin deep-teal (#176676) line stroke,
soft pastel mint fill, flat, rounded friendly shapes, [subject: cloud / sparkle /
tiny flower / shopping bag], minimal, cute not childish, on cream background,
no gradient, no shadow
```
Use for section dividers, empty-state decorations, background motifs. Keep the deep-teal line treatment consistent with the brand.

## Recipe C — Background / texture wash

```
very soft mint-to-cream gradient wash, barely-there, airy, low contrast,
subtle scattered tiny doodle motifs (clouds, sparkles) at low opacity, calm, pastel
```
Never a bluish-purple gradient, never neon glow.

## Negative prompt (always include)

```
hot pink, pink-dominant palette, magenta, kawaii, chibi, anime, cartoon mascot,
peach/orange/brown cast, neon, high saturation, oversaturated, dark background,
black shadows, harsh contrast, 3D render, glossy, metallic, plastic, HDR,
dramatic lighting, grunge, cluttered, stock-photo look, heavy filter, watermark,
text artifacts, deformed hands
```

> **Color-dominance lock (the #1 failure mode).** Models default "Bebe/chic → cute → pink → kawaii/chibi". Prevent it: state the dominance explicitly in every prompt — *"dominant warm cream/off-white, mint and teal accents, minimal blush, NO hot-pink-dominant palette, NO chibi/anime mascot"*. Cream 55–70% · mint+teal 15–30% · blush ≤8%.

## Color anchors (feed as hex where the model accepts it)

mint `#8FD8C3` · deep teal `#176676` · mint wash `#E7FEF7` · cream `#FFFCF5` · blush `#F5A6B3`. Avoid pure white `#FFFFFF` and pure black `#000000`.

## Aspect ratios per channel

| Use | Ratio |
|---|---|
| Instagram square / marketplace thumbnail | 1:1 |
| Instagram portrait feed | 4:5 |
| Story / reel / TikTok | 9:16 |
| Website hero / banner | 16:9 |
| PDP gallery | 1:1 or 4:5 |

## After generation

- Composite official mascots/logos from the CDN on top rather than generating them.
- Check: is the background cream (not white)? saturation low? no neon/3D/glossy? shadows soft, not black? If not, regenerate — don't ship off-look imagery.
- For placing images into layouts, hand off to **bebechic-canva** (graphics) or **bebechic-design** (web/app).
