Project walkthrough: After HoursOpen reference ↗
AFTER HOURS / Luma Studio / Web editor
An image becomes an invitation.
Build a real exhibition poster: one original still life, two editable text elements, and a controlled shift in tone.
Begin with an image
An original AI-generated still life becomes a 1024 × 1536 portrait document. The source artwork remains its own raster layer.
Give it a voice
AFTER HOURS and OBJECTS / SOUND / IDEAS are separate editable text elements, placed in the open space around the still life.
Develop the atmosphere
A tone layer sets exposure to 0.20, contrast to 12, shadows to 8 and temperature to −8. The before and after views use the same composition.
Keep every decision
The four-layer document was saved in Luma’s native format. Its exported PNG was opened and visually checked at the original 1024 × 1536 size.
Compare the tone
Original toneDeveloped tone
The finished invitation
Actual PNG output from Luma. The source artwork was AI-generated; typography and tone were applied in the editor.
Actual browser session. Native Luma v4 archive integrity and all four layer records were verified. No PSD round-trip or print-production fidelity is implied.
