01 · After School Program
Wants to read as homework and care, not as martial arts. Both candidates show the WU shirt clearly.
Cleanest read of the three. The WU logo is legible, the desk is set up for homework, and the second child behind gives it a room rather than a portrait.
Shows an adult helping, which sells supervision better. Busier frame and the logo is partly turned away.
02 · Children's Wushu
Both are a full class in proper stances with weapons, coach included, everyone in shoes.
A whole class held in bow stance with staffs, spread across the hall. Reads as a real class rather than a posed shot, and the depth suits a tall card crop.
Tighter and more colourful with the dao and red silk. Fewer students in frame.
03 · Adult Wushu
This is the one place where the set and the label do not quite line up. Read the note under the picks.
The single most striking wushu frame in the whole set. Full competition silks, a kick well above the head, complete extension. It sells skill and ambition, which is what an adult browsing this card is buying.
The only photo in the adult folder. Genuinely adults, but they are in street training clothes and the framing is casual.
An adult holding a clean deep bow stance, leading from the front. He is teaching a children's class, so it reads as instruction rather than as an adult class.
Adult Wushu, the honest problem
There is exactly one photo in wushu/adult, and it is the weakest of the three above. Everything else in the set is children, teenagers or coaches. My pick is a teenage or young-adult athlete in competition silks, so it is authentic wushu but it is not evidence of an adult class. Three ways to go:
- Ship my pick. Strongest image, sells the art, does not literally depict adult students.
- Ship the coach shot. An adult, clean stance, honest, less exciting.
- Shoot or find more adult class photos. Best long-term answer if the adult programme matters commercially.
04 · Sanda / Self Defense
Both are pad work with a coach, which is what the folder actually contains. No adult sparring in the set.
Coach down at the child's level holding the mitt, student squared up to strike. Best light in the folder, and the interaction reads instantly as self defense training.
Shows the class queue and more of the room. Less energy, the striking student is turned away.
05 · Taiji
Nothing to pick from.
There is no taiji material in the set
I went through all 222 files and every folder: afterschool, van, wushu group with basics, daoshu, gunshu, openhand and coaching, plus sanda, conditioning, candid, team, team coaching, demo practice and adult. None of it is taiji. There is no taiji folder and no taiji in any other folder.
I am not going to substitute a slow-looking wushu frame and call it taiji, and I am not going to generate a taiji image from a text description. Taiji is exactly where the earlier generated images went wrong, bare feet and crossover robes that read as a Japanese gi. Without a reference I would be guessing again.
- Send taiji photos and I will treat it like the other four.
- Or tell me the card should show something else, if taiji is taught but rarely photographed.
Reference for the generated versions
Not a card pick. This is the frame I would feed alongside every card as a style anchor, because it shows the school's real competition silks, weapons and stance vocabulary in one image.
Real uniforms, real weapons, real stances, everyone shod. Using this as an image-to-image reference is how the generated versions stop inventing gis and bare feet.
