Contact Sheet Prompting

Summary

Contact Sheet prompting is a hot topic, and after trying it out this weekend I can see why everyone is so gassed up. The idea behind the prompt is to get Nano Banana Pro to output a full contact sheet, with 6-9 key frames telling a cohesive story to a spec. It leans into NBP's reasoning capabilities—NBP is the only model where this can work right now. The Original Technique Here is the original post from TechHalla. Don't just copy+paste his prompt. The real juice here is that you can get detailed camera control across many key frames in a single pass. NBP can generate all of these images individually with good prompting; generating nine images in one pass with character and narrative consistency is the breakthrough here. Firat Bilal on X is doing great work adapting the technique to better use the reasoning capabilities in NBP. Check out his work. Adapting it I wanted to adapt this technique for a fashion-style shoot, where the emphasis is on a single character from many angles in different poses. It's also a good opportunity to use the node editor for Nano Banana I've been working on. It's still in progress, but if you want to try Node Banana, it's here. In the /examples directory you can find the full workflow for this project, drag it into the node graph and it will set it up exactly as I had it. The workflow: take a photo of a model, apply a wardrobe change, use an adapted contact sheet prompt to set up the model and camera, extract the images, run I2V in Kling 2.6, and apply ease animations in easypeasyease.

The Prompts Initial model prompt: Show me a high fashion photoshoot image of the model wearing the oversized jacket and glasses, the image should show the a full body shot of the subject. The model is looking past the camera slightly bored expression and eyebrows raised. They have one hand raised with two fingers tapping ...
