How to Use Gemini Nano Banana Prompts: Step-By-Step Guide for Beginners

What is the Gemini Nano Banana Prompt?

The Banana Prompt is a structured template used to create fun, detailed, and high-quality AI outputs. It uses an object like a banana as the main subject and adds descriptive layers so beginners can learn prompt engineering quickly.

Example: "A cute yellow banana wearing sunglasses, standing on a beach during sunset, ultra-realistic lighting, cinematic frame."

Step-By-Step Guide to Use Gemini Nano Banana Prompt

  1. Open Google Gemini (App or Feature)

    Install Gemini on your device or open Gemini inside Google Messages (if supported). Ensure Gemini Nano is enabled and pick your input type (text or image prompt).

  2. Choose Your Output Style

    Decide what you want Gemini to create: image, emoji art, short story, character, caption, product concept, cartoon/3D/realistic style. This guides how you build the prompt.

  3. Start with the Main Object — "Banana"

    Begin with a simple subject: "A banana". Expand it step by step with attributes and context.

  4. Add Details (Shape, Color, Style)

    Describe the banana's look: shiny, matte, cartoonish, realistic; fresh, ripe, golden yellow; wearing sunglasses, hat, shoes, etc.

    Example: "A cute shiny banana wearing sunglasses."

  5. Add the Environment & Background

    Tell Gemini where the object exists: beach, forest, space, neon city, school desk, sci-fi lab — this sets the scene.

    Example: "standing on a sunny beach during golden hour."

  6. Add Lighting & Mood

    Lighting changes tone: cinematic, vibrant, soft, dramatic, neon glow. Include mood keywords: warm, eerie, playful, mysterious.

    Example: "cinematic lighting and soft golden glow."

  7. Add Camera Style (Optional for Images)

    If generating images, specify camera style: ultra-wide, portrait lens, 4K, high detail, macro shot, shallow depth of field.

    Example: "4K photo, shallow depth of field."

  8. Combine All Parts Into One Prompt

    Merge the pieces into a single prompt you can paste into Gemini Nano.

    A cute shiny banana wearing black sunglasses, standing on a sunny beach during golden hour, cinematic lighting, soft warm glow, 4K ultra-realistic shot.

Banana Prompt Variations to Try

  • Cartoon Banana Hero: "A superhero banana flying above skyscrapers, cartoon style, bold colors."
  • Sci‑Fi Banana: "A futuristic banana robot with metal armor, glowing blue eyes, neon city background."
  • Funny Banana: "A banana riding a bicycle while smiling, Pixar-style animation."

Tips for Best Results

  • Use clear, specific descriptions.
  • Add style keywords (e.g., "photorealistic", "cartoon", "cinematic").
  • Mention lighting and mood to control the atmosphere.
  • Avoid adding too many unrelated instructions in one prompt.
  • Keep the main idea focused and iterate with small tweaks.

Conclusion

The Gemini Nano Banana prompt is a playful, practical way to learn prompt engineering. Follow these steps to get consistent, high-quality outputs — then iterate and make it your own.
