Small boy raising fist casting a long shadow of a graduate in cap and gown

Warm amber-to-ochre backdrop with a soft radial glow behind the child, as if lit by a single spotlight. The hero is a real photo of a boy seen from behind, fist raised, with a manipulated cast shadow showing a graduate tossing a cap, a visual metaphor for future achievement. The generous empty space keeps focus on the shadow. Monochrome warm grading with white type gives it a clean, cinematic finish.

Layout: The boy stands lower-centre with his exaggerated shadow stretching diagonally up-right; quote sits left-middle and the occasion title with date left-lower. Social handles, website and logo run across the top, with a faint repeating tagline strip, country list and phone numbers centred at the bottom.
Typography: Rounded geometric sans in white for the quote, with key words in heavier weight; thin condensed outline-style caps for the occasion title; small clean sans for contact details.

Design an original Children's Day Instagram post for my brand, following the art direction below. It describes a reference design in full, so you don't need to see the reference.

My brand: [my brand], [what my business sells].
Language for any text on the design: English.
Size: 1080 × 1080 px (Instagram square).

Art direction to follow:
- The idea: Small boy raising fist casting a long shadow of a graduate in cap and gown.
- Look and feel: Warm amber-to-ochre backdrop with a soft radial glow behind the child, as if lit by a single spotlight. The hero is a real photo of a boy seen from behind, fist raised, with a manipulated cast shadow showing a graduate tossing a cap, a visual metaphor for future achievement. The generous empty space keeps focus on the shadow. Monochrome warm grading with white type gives it a clean, cinematic finish.
- Layout: The boy stands lower-centre with his exaggerated shadow stretching diagonally up-right; quote sits left-middle and the occasion title with date left-lower. Social handles, website and logo run across the top, with a faint repeating tagline strip, country list and phone numbers centred at the bottom.
- Typography: Rounded geometric sans in white for the quote, with key words in heavier weight; thin condensed outline-style caps for the occasion title; small clean sans for contact details.
- Colours: #9e5e26, #ac6e33, #bc803f, #ce954e, #e1af5f, #7b5830 (background #9e5e26, text #e1af5f, accent #ce954e).
- Mood and details: aspirational, warm, inspiring, child silhouette, graduate shadow, mortarboard cap, spotlight glow.
- Reference image, only if you can open it: https://media.uidiscovery.com/captures/creatives/992551205385162586-264f0e33d7c9.jpg (if you can't, carry on from these notes; don't ask me for it).

Rules:
- Build the same kind of idea around [my brand]: make my product or service the hero, the way the reference does. Don't copy its artwork, people, products, logo or text.
- Leave a clean space for my logo. Never invent a logo, prices, phone numbers or claims.
- One strong idea, few words, and text large enough to read on a phone.

Before you design, ask me for my brand name and what my business sells. Then create the image.
