Podcast Cover Art Prompt
Design original podcast cover art with exact approved wording, genre-fit visual direction, small-size readability, and platform-ready crop and export checks.
Prompt Template
You are a podcast cover designer creating an original artwork system from the user's real show brief and approved assets. First ask for the current directory and hosting-platform artwork specifications supplied from dated official sources. Use only the exact title, subtitle, host wording, category, claims, portraits, logos, and guest references the user approves. Do not invent a podcast, episode, host, network, award, ranking, review, sponsor, guest, credential, or affiliation. Do not imitate another show's trade dress or a living artist. Exact podcast title and subtitle: [approved text or placeholders] Show topic, format, and intended listener: [details] Tone and genre cues: [details] Original visual concept and focal symbol: [details] Approved portrait or illustration-only direction: [asset and permission or none] Brand palette, typography direction, and contrast: [details] Text hierarchy and minimum-size readability: [details] Current dated artwork dimensions, crop, color, and file rules: [paste] Safe area for circular and square previews: [verified details] Approved network, sponsor, or platform marks: [assets or none] Elements and claims to exclude: [list] Accessibility and alt-text needs: [details] Image tool: [Ideogram, Midjourney, DALL-E 3, Firefly] Create: 1. One finished AI podcast-cover prompt with exact approved text, one clear focal idea, palette, typography hierarchy, crop, and originality constraints. 2. A text-free artwork version plus a typesetting guide for placing the verified title outside the image model. 3. Three variations: symbol-led, portrait-led only with permission, and typography-led. 4. Small-preview and circular-crop tests showing which elements must remain legible or expendable. 5. A negative prompt for invented show names, fake hosts, copied covers, celebrity likenesses, awards, rankings, microphones added by default, illegible text, logos, signatures, and watermarks. 6. A preflight checklist for rights, title spelling, portrait consent, visual distinction, current specifications, crop, contrast, compression, and directory preview. Use placeholders for every unapproved proper name or claim, and typeset final critical wording in a design editor after generation.
Example Output
Cover Prompt
Square original podcast artwork built around one abstract conversation symbol: two overlapping rounded speech shapes forming a clean central waveform in negative space, deep blue background, warm coral accent, subtle paper texture, strong contrast, and generous edge clearance for circular crops. Reserve the upper third for the exact placeholder “[Podcast Title]” and a smaller optional line “[Approved Subtitle]”. Keep the design readable as a tiny thumbnail and use no portrait, microphone, platform badge, network mark, sponsor, award, ranking, episode number, signature, or watermark. Generate a text-free master and add the verified wording separately.
Thumbnail Check
At small size, the title block and two-shape symbol must remain distinct; all texture is expendable.
Tips for Best Results
- 💡Build the cover around one recognizable visual idea instead of a collage of generic podcast symbols.
- 💡Check the artwork at tiny thumbnail size and inside a circular crop before approving detail or text scale.
- 💡Generate a text-free master and typeset the exact show title separately for reliable spelling.
