Do not use photorealism, fake news-photo style, realistic public figures, real logos, readable text, screenshots, disaster scenes, crime scenes, injuries, or anything that could look like evidence of a real event. Use symbols, objects, contrast, and mood to express the idea. Make it clear, sharp, social-media-ready, and not like generic AI stock art.
