# IMAGE_PROMPT: Outsourcing

**Scene Type:** SILHOUETTES. Distinct from personalmanagement (NIGHT), human-resources (DESK), zeitarbeit (DESK), arbeitnehmerueberlassung (ABSTRACT/single silhouette at threshold). Outsourcing = Auslagerung von Prozessen an externe Dienstleister – delegation, handover of tasks/processes. Two silhouettes convey company and external partner; handover moment = process delegation.

## Core Concept / Metaphor

Outsourcing = Auslagerung von Aufgaben oder Prozessen an externe Dienstleister. Delegation metaphor: two professional silhouettes – one (company) passing responsibility to another (external partner). Conveys process transfer, not workforce transfer (that’s Zeitarbeit/Arbeitnehmerüberlassung).

## Key Elements (On-Theme, Concrete)

Two professional silhouettes in soft-lit office or neutral space – one handing over folder, document stack, or passing a task to the other. Conveys delegation, process handover, external partnership. Muted blues, greens, warm accents. No text, no readable content. Wide shot, shallow depth of field.

## Why Not (Anti-Patterns)

- Single silhouette at threshold (arbeitnehmerueberlassung)
- Desk with laptop, workstations (zeitarbeit, human-resources)
- Night office with lamp (personalmanagement)
- Abstract nodes, flowing lines – too generic
- Generic handshakes – overused for HR
- Blue sphere, sundial, clock

## Composition / Camera

Wide shot with shallow depth of field. Two silhouettes as focal point – handover moment slightly off-center. Soft background blur. Editorial photography, natural texture.

## Mood / Atmosphere

Professional, collaborative, strategic – delegation and partnership without being cold or corporate.

## Prompt

CRITICAL: No text, letters, typography, signs, or readable content in the image.
