# BBC Global Experience Language (BBC GEL) — image generation prompt
# IndexStyle No.559 — https://indexstyle.org/styles/bbc-gel
# Style descriptors only. This prompt names no artist, studio, brand or work.

Produce four original images in the visual language of BBC Global Experience Language, a style from Platform Screen Languages, 2010–.

## What to make

Make the kind of thing this style exists for: media sites mixing articles, audio and video, or delivering the same content across devices and assistive technology. Choose one subject and hold it across all four images.

## What has to be visible

- Black header over white content
- Short bold headlines
- News cards with consistent image ratios
- Highly visible focus, captions and playback controls

Someone who knows this style should be able to point at each of these in the finished image.

## How to build it

- Layout and structure: Keep card ratios consistent but let editorial importance change their size and order
- Type and lettering: Write short bold headlines and label content so it works without an image
- Material and surface: Use black and white as the base, with one section or programme color
- Colour: #FFFFFF carries the ground, #B80000 is the colour the style is remembered by, #121212 holds text and outlines. Read off real works, so treat them as a direction rather than a fixed palette.
- What it should feel like: trust, technique, exhilaration

## What goes wrong

An even card grid erases editorial judgment. Express importance through area and sequence.

## Across the four

Keep every cue above present in all four. Vary the framing, the scale and the arrangement so the set shows the range this style covers rather than four versions of one picture.

## Constraints

- Do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work.
- Do not reproduce the composition of an existing work.
- Produce original compositions in the general period language described above.
