CDecide — “help me choose”I've been asked to composite our studio product into a golden-hour beach lifestyle background…+
I've been asked to composite our studio product into a golden-hour beach lifestyle background for the agency brief due today. The product is flat-lit studio, the background has directional warm light and low contrast. I don't know if this can look believable or whether I should ask for a new shoot. Tell me honestly if this composite can be made real within an afternoon, what element must match first — light direction, color temperature, or shadow anchor — and one clear line I should give the agency if it's beyond salvage.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed.

The real tasks
