Image: Premium broadcast graphic for a fictional cricket

Generated from: Premium broadcast graphic for a fictional cricket management game: RELEGATED. FRAMING RULE: render the picture as a widescreen 16:9 photograph occupying the central horizontal band of the canvas. The top strip is plain empty overcast sky, the bottom strip plain dark empty seating; nothing important enters either strip. SCENE: a quiet, almost empty stadium after the last match of the season. A small group of players stands together near the boundary, seen mostly from behind and at a distance, one with a hand on a teammate's shoulder — disappointed but dignified. No single face is singled out for humiliation, no tears in close-up. Ground staff begin clearing up in the background, seats are empty, the light is going. Wide, restrained perspective that keeps its distance. Muted, cool, overcast light — subdued but not hopeless or sensational. Players of varied South Asian, Caribbean, African, Australasian and European appearance, as international cricket actually looks. INTERFACE LAYER, clearly readable as solid plates and given more weight than the emotion: dark smoked-glass panels in navy over anthracite, distinctly darker than whatever lies behind them, opaque enough to read as real plates rather than faint sheets of glass. One slim horizontal bar in the upper middle, one fifteenth of the picture height; one medium card in the middle, about one fifth of the picture height, with a small empty square plate beside it for a club crest; a row of three small tiles beneath. All panels sit well inside the middle of the picture, far from the bottom, and together cover no more than one third of the frame. Soft shadows, rounded corners, hairline outlines, even spacing. COMPLETELY TEXT-FREE: no letters, words, digits, numerals, points totals, league positions, dates, scoreboard readouts, jersey numbers, written signage or pseudo-lettering anywhere, including inside every panel, card, tile and bar. Every panel is a clean empty plate; advertising boards are blank colour blocks; the stadium scoreboard surface is dark and empty. SAFE ZONE: every panel and tile keeps at least one tenth of the picture width and height clear of all four edges. Nothing is cropped. COLOUR: cool desaturated tones, deep navy blue, neutral anthracite, muted white. Panel borders and frames stay strictly neutral brushed graphite and warm grey — never saturated team colours, never gold trim. Everything fictional: original abstract textless crests, invented kit designs, no resemblance to any real league, club, player, broadcaster or sponsor. Photorealistic sports-broadcast illustration, sharp, correct cricket equipment, plausible anatomy, correct hands and fingers, natural skin tones, plausible shadows, no HDR oversaturation, respectful and non-sensational.
