Instagram carousel ad prompts: one ad told in 5 slides

Slide 1 of a 5-slide Instagram carousel ad for [BRAND], 4:5 vertical. Use the uploaded product photo as the exact product reference and place the product in the lower third at a slight angle, cropped by the bottom edge so the eye is pulled toward the next slide. Fill the upper two thirds with a flat [BRAND COLOR] field and set the headline "[HOOK LINE]" in a heavy grotesque sans-serif, left-aligned, three lines at most, high contrast against the field. Add one small right-pointing arrow in the bottom-right corner as a swipe cue. Preserve the product's shape, label and logo exactly. Soft studio key light, one realistic contact shadow, no other text, no extra products, no border.

Slide 2 of a 5-slide Instagram carousel ad, 4:5 vertical, same visual system as the cover. Show the problem the product solves, with no product in frame: a close, honest photograph of [PROBLEM SCENE] in [SETTING], shot at eye level with natural window light and a slightly cool, desaturated grade so the moment reads as everyday frustration rather than drama. Keep the top quarter of the frame as a flat [BRAND COLOR] band and set the line "[PROBLEM LINE]" inside it in the same heavy grotesque sans-serif as slide 1, left-aligned, two lines at most. Every container or package in the scene is generic and unbranded, with plain or illegible labels — no real brand names. Realistic textures, no stock-photo smiles, no exaggerated mess, no other text, no logos.

Slide 3 of a 5-slide Instagram carousel ad, 4:5 vertical: the product reveal. Use the uploaded product photo as an immutable reference — exact shape, proportions, cap, label typography, logo placement and colors. Stand the product upright in the center of the frame, filling about 60 percent of the frame height, on [SURFACE] against a seamless [BRAND COLOR] backdrop that matches the earlier slides. Place [HERO PROP] low and slightly behind the product as a single supporting element. Soft directional key light from the left, gentle rim highlight on the right edge, one realistic contact shadow. Leave clean, empty negative space to the left and right of the product for three callout labels that will be added in a design tool. Do not render any text, no extra products, no badges.

Slide 4 of a 5-slide Instagram carousel ad, 4:5 vertical: proof in use. Photograph [PERSONA] using the product from the uploaded product photo in [SETTING], captured mid-action as a candid, phone-quality moment rather than a posed studio shot. The product must stay faithful to the reference in shape, color, label and scale, held or placed naturally with the label partly visible. Show [RESULT DETAIL] as the visible outcome, kept within what the product can really do. Natural daylight, true skin texture, no beauty retouching, shallow depth of field. Bring in [BRAND COLOR] through one object in the scene so the slide still belongs to the set. No rendered text, no logos added, no extra products.

Slide 5 of a 5-slide Instagram carousel ad, 4:5 vertical: the closing slide, mirroring the cover so the set feels finished. Flat [BRAND COLOR] field across the whole frame. Place the product from the uploaded product photo upright and small in the lower-right third, complete and uncropped, faithful in shape, label and logo, with one soft contact shadow. Set the headline "[OFFER LINE]" in the same heavy grotesque sans-serif as slide 1, left-aligned in the upper half, two lines at most. Beneath it draw one pill-shaped button in a contrasting tone containing the words "[CTA TEXT]". Generous margins, nothing else in frame: no price burst, no badges, no fine print, no additional text.
