Nano Banana for ads. 12 use cases.
|
Oh, Nano Banana. The greatest AI image tool. Here are 12 ways I use it to make ads: 01. Change HairstylePrompt: Mess up her hair so it looks like a full-on bad hair day: Uneven volume, frizzy strands, pieces sticking out in random directions and covering her face. 02. Expand FramePrompt: Zoom out to reveal her legs and more of the room she was painted in, while keeping the same original painting style. 03. Change OutfitsPrompt: Replace her dress with pink cozy pajamas covered in cute cat illustrations. 04. Create MockupsPrompt: Show the ad printed on a giant wall mural in Berlin. The mural covers the entire side of a building, with natural city lighting and realistic wall texture. Add a few Berlin street elements like bikes, graffiti, and a tram. 05. Switch AnglesPrompt: The woman is seated in the same chair, but she is turned away from the viewer, facing the landscape. 06. Add ElementsPrompt: Add six more hands to this woman so she has eight in total. Six of the hands should be waving. 07. Change ExpressionPrompt: Make her look like she’s just realized she made a big mistake. 08. Remove ThingsPrompt: Remove the woman from the painting so only the empty chair and background remain. 09. Change AgePrompt: Make her look 90 years old. 10. Change StylePrompt: Turn this painting into an unfinished pencil sketch. 11. Change SettingPrompt: Change the setting so she’s sitting on a plane. 12. Change LightingPrompt: Make the scene dark, like it’s the middle of the night, and light her face with a soft blue glow, similar to the gentle light from a laptop. Bonus: Place ProductsFor this one, I tried a different prompting technique: Instead of a simple text prompt, I added another reference image and annotations on the original image. This helps me get more precise results or edit a few elements at once. You made it! 🕺If you enjoyed this email, I think you'll love my B2B ads course.

Read in your browser↗ Hey! Making ads for tech products is hard because product screenshots are usually boring. Great UX/UI, terrible ad hook. Volkswagen had a similar problem. Their cars had tons of unique features, but explaining them meant showing boring illustrations. Now, showing the actual features is very important – just later in the funnel. An ad should grab attention and deliver one simple message, not cover the entire pitch. So they tried a different creative strategy... Analogy...
