Best Prompts for School Play Drama Photos

Stage too dark from audience seats
brighten the actors on stage naturally, correct the colored stage lighting to show true costume and face colors

School auditorium stage lighting is rarely good enough for phone cameras from the audience

Photo from back rows is blurry
sharpen the performers on the distant stage, enhance their expressions and costume details

Back-of-auditorium photos use phone zoom which always creates blur

Curtain call or group bow
brighten all performers on stage during the bow, capture the proud moment

Curtain calls are the proud moment worth capturing clearly

Costume and set detail lost in dark
enhance the set design and costume details, make the stagecraft visible

Students build sets for weeks - they deserve to be seen in photos

Common Issues

Fluorescent classroom lighting looks greenish

Why: School fluorescent lights create an unflattering green/yellow color cast

Try: correct the fluorescent green tint, restore natural skin tones and colors

Adding 'natural skin tones' ensures faces look healthy, not sickly

Subject too far away in auditorium or gym

Why: School events force parents to shoot from bleachers or back rows

Try: sharpen and enhance the distant subject, make their face and details visible

Use a tap marker on the specific person for targeted enhancement

Harsh shadows from cap, hat, or overhead lights

Why: Graduation caps and overhead gym lights cast deep face shadows

Try: fill in the shadows on the face, brighten under the cap while keeping natural look

Mentioning 'under the cap' precisely targets the shadow area AI needs to fix

Crowded background distracts from the subject

Why: School events have busy backgrounds with other students, chairs, and equipment

Try: blur the busy background to focus attention on the main subject

Background blur is more natural than removal β€” keeps the context while reducing distraction
