Vertical story (9:16) · GPT Image 2.5 SunburstPotrero Skate JamRead the exact prompt
Create a finished vertical social media story graphic announcing an event, in a 9:16 aspect ratio. Produce the graphic itself, without a phone frame, app interface, or mockup. Keep all text inside the middle 80% of the height so app controls do not cover it. POST TEXT Use the following event information exactly as written. The labels before each colon are for you, not for the graphic; print only the text after them. Do not invent extra event details. Title: Potrero Skate Jam When: Sunday, August 9, 2026 · 1pm Where: Potrero del Sol Skatepark Highlights: Open sessions, best-trick contest, and a barbecue Admission: Free · Helmets under 16 ART DIRECTION Interpret the supplied brief in Grunge Typography style. Visual vocabulary: damaged or distorted typefaces; text overprinting images or running off the edge; torn paper, scratched film, or photocopied textures; no clear typographic hierarchy; image and text compete for the same space. Lettering direction: fonts used wrongly — backwards, upside down, corrupted; extreme tracking extremes — either very tight or very loose; body text set in display faces or vice versa. Suggested colors: black, white, and photographic tones; occasional crude colour. Composition: anti-hierarchical; elements crash into each other. Atmosphere: raw, emotional, anti-establishment, surf-and-skate literate. Keep out of the design: Swiss-style order, clean digital polish, craft-fair aesthetics, artificial yellowing or ageing. Apply the visual language to the supplied brief; do not invent historical affiliations, endorsements, or extra copy. ILLUSTRATION NOTES A scraped skateboard deck from above, photocopy texture, torn film strips overlaying. These notes guide the imagery; do not print them as text. This will be viewed on a phone: keep the event name very large, use few words at a large size, and leave generous margins. Keep supporting details readable with clear contrast. Check spelling and retain the supplied wording. Do not include these instructions, labels, watermarks, or extra slogans in the artwork.
