Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+The art director wants a composite showing a photographed product placed into a brochure spread with believable drop shadows for a [run=50,000] run. The product was shot under studio light and the layout is ambient light; if the composite reads fake the client will pull colours. I'm new to this role and tense about creating a shadow that prints correctly. Tell me the primary thing to match first — shadow direction, shadow softness, or tonal balance — and the conservative approach that won't look phoney on proof or on press.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
