These 6 Nano Banana Pro prompts are wild with the Gemini 3 upgrade
Google’s Nano Banana has rapidly gained popularity among AI image generation enthusiasts since its launch in early August, thanks to its user-friendly interface and extensive creative capabilities. The tech giant has now introduced Nano Banana Pro, a more advanced version built on the Gemini 3 model, which promises to elevate the quality and precision of image creation and editing. Unlike the original Nano Banana, which operates on the Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model, Nano Banana Pro is designed to produce “studio-quality levels of precision and control.” This enhancement is expected to yield more realistic images and improve the AI’s reasoning capabilities, making it a powerful tool for both casual users and professionals alike.
One of the standout features of Nano Banana Pro is its ability to generate infographics and storyboards with remarkable ease. For instance, users can input a simple image, such as a photo of a plant, and request an infographic that includes detailed information about the plant’s care and growth habits. This functionality is particularly beneficial for students or anyone needing quick visual content, as it eliminates the need for complex instructions—Nano Banana Pro can autonomously identify the subject and create relevant content. Similarly, the AI can generate storyboards for visual storytelling by analyzing a scene and producing various shot types, making it an invaluable resource for budding filmmakers or small production teams who may not have the budget for professional storyboard artists.
Moreover, Nano Banana Pro excels in creating photorealistic scenes and translating text within images. Users can craft detailed prompts that specify lighting, camera angles, and other elements to achieve stunningly realistic results. Additionally, the AI can translate text from images into different languages, which is particularly advantageous for businesses looking to localize their marketing materials. With these capabilities, Nano Banana Pro not only refines the functions of its predecessor but also expands the creative possibilities for users, making it a compelling choice for anyone interested in AI-driven image generation. Whether you’re looking to create whimsical designs or professional-grade visuals, Nano Banana Pro offers a robust platform that caters to a wide array of artistic needs.
Google’s Nano Banana has been a hit with AI image generation fans since its
release in early August
. Even the free version comes with tons of ways to create images, and it’s
also pretty easy to use
. Google is keeping the hype train rolling with its release of Nano Banana Pro, which is built on Gemini 3.
The purpose of Nano Banana Pro is the Pro part. Google says that Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro are capable of making or editing images with “studio-quality levels of precision and control.” In layman’s terms, it’s basically going to do what Nano Banana already does, but better since it’s powered by Gemini 3 instead of Google’s Gemini 2.5 Flash Image model like the regular Nano Banana.
In theory, that should result in more realistic images with better, more accurate reasoning. Google has also wasted no time getting Nano Banana Pro integrated into other services,
like Adobe’s Firefly
, which gives users more avenues to try out the latest update.
If you’re curious what it is capable of, here are some fun prompts you can try that will make full use of Nano Banana Pro.

Infographics
Both Google and Adobe’s blog posts for Nano Banana Pro leaned heavily on the fact that the new AI can make infographics with cleaner text. It’s also one of the easiest ones to make. You pop an image into Nano Banana Pro and ask it to make one for you. In the example above, the input image was a basic photo of the String of Turtles houseplant. For the prompt, Google says it used “create an infographic about this plant focusing on interesting information.”
Nano Banana Pro then correctly identifies the plant as a String of Turtles house plant, and creates an infographic about its growth habits, care, origin, and leaf pattern. This is actually really cool because if Nano Banana Pro can identify the image on its own, you don’t need to give it complicated instructions. It’ll go out and find the thing and make an infographic for it.
This is useful for a variety of purposes, but the one that most quickly came to mind was for a school project. Students using it for this purpose should double check to make sure the information is accurate, of course, but the image Nano Banana Pro spit out is better than anything I could’ve drawn in middle school.

Storyboards
To be honest, I would have never thought of storyboards on my own, but it’s a really neat concept. Like the infographics, you feed Nano Banana Pro an image and ask it to create a storyboard. Per Google, the prompt for the above image was “create a storyboard for this scene.” The AI’s image included an establishing shot, a medium shot, a close-up, and a POV shot.
Storyboarding is a job, and some people spend their whole careers doing it. The thing is, for a very small film crew, a beginner, or, again, a college student, hiring a storyboarder may not be in the cards, and doing it manually is kind of a pain. So, for low-end professional use cases, having AI help you with a storyboard isn’t a bad idea. You can also change up the prompt to have it make storyboards with different shots or ideas.

Combining loads of things into a single image
A fun thing you
can already do with image generators
is combine multiple objects into a single image. I’ve done it, and it’s pretty easy to do, but there are some limitations. I once inserted myself into a picture with my dog and had to try a few times to get things right. One of the things Google says that Nano Banana Pro does well is adding a bunch of elements into a single image while maintaining consistency.
In the above example, Google fed Nano Banana Pro 14 unique fluffy characters and asked Nano Banana to sit them all on a couch, facing a TV. Nano Banana Pro not only did that, but made the fuzzy characters consistent as it stuffed them all into the same scene. The prompt for this is kind of ridiculous, so we’ll post it in its entirety below before moving on.
“A medium shot of the 14 fluffy characters sitting squeezed together side-by-side on a worn beige fabric sofa and on the floor. They are all facing forwards, watching a vintage, wooden-boxed television set placed on a low wooden table in front of the sofa. The room is dimly lit, with warm light from a window on the left and a glow from the TV illuminating the creatures’ faces and fluffy textures. The background is a cozy, slightly cluttered living room with a braided rug, a bookshelf with old books, and rustic kitchen elements in the background. The overall atmosphere is warm, cozy, and amused.”

Photorealistic scenes
I’ve always admired AI’s ability to make realistic stuff, some of which is so good that it’s nearly indistinguishable from real life. It turns out that Nano Banana Pro is one of the best AI image generators for this. Google
has a guide
for making realistic images with some prompt ideas that you can try. They can get around medium length, so it’s a good intermediate prompt to try yourself.
Per Google, the key here is detail. When generating a prompt, you want to mention everything you can, like lighting, camera angle, and even camera lens type if you’re knowledgeable about that kind of thing. Describing the subject as best as you can also increase the odds of getting something that you want. Don’t forget the background as well. As you can see with the example above, the background really helps bring the whole thing together.

Translate words on an image to another language
Considering that half the words I’ve ever tried to have AI include in an image have been total gibberish, the idea that Nano Banana Pro can take words off of an input image, translate them, and put them back to be rather impressive. This can be useful for a variety of things, but I imagine businesses would get the best use by having their products translated into another language for a social media post aimed at a different region.
The prompt for this one is pretty simple too. Per Google, the above image was put in and for the prompt, it’s simple, “translate all the English text on the three yellow and blue cans into Korean, while keeping everything else the same.” You can swap out that noun for basically any other noun and it looks like it’ll work the same way. Very cool.

Change any doodle into a product
Many of us have been in a position where we draw or create something cool and then wondered what it’d be like if it were on a t-shirt or a coffee mug. Nano Banana Pro lets you do this pretty easily. The input image is your cool little design. You can get by just having Nano Banana Pro slap it onto a t-shirt, and call it a day.
However, you can also add in tons of details to get a very specific product. In the above example, Google’s prompt (which is very long) includes telling the AI to use 1960s and 1970s aesthetics with a color palette that “reinforces the vintage feel” and has an effect of “whimsical nostalgia and clever graphic design.” Like many of the others, the images will get better the more detail you add, so the world is your oyster if you want to see your design on a piece of clothing.
AI for days
On top of the above prompts, all of the
usual Nano Banana stuff
works. Viral prompts like turning yourself into a claymation character a la Robot Chicken or combining two elements in two photographs together still work as intended. Really, what you’re getting with Nano Banana Pro is refinement, with more power and overhead to fix many common problems (like words) that users may have struggled with while using regular Nano Banana. In short, it’s not a new product, just a better product.
