Midjourney Prompts, Formulas & Tips (for STUNNING Ai Art)
TLDRThe video script discusses various prompt formulas for creating unique images using AI, such as blending prompts, style stacking, chain prompting, and detailed prompts. It emphasizes experimenting with different styles and objects, and adjusting parameters for more control over the AI-generated images. The presenter shares their experiences and tips, encouraging viewers to explore the creative potential of AI in image generation.
Takeaways
- 🎨 Using 'blunt prompts' can generate interesting images based on the AI's interpretation of simple words or concepts.
- 🦄 Combining a 'simple object and style' prompt, like a mythical beast with a distinctive style like 'DMT style', can produce unique visual outcomes.
- 🌟 Exploring 'contrasted styles' by merging two conflicting styles or 'contrasted subjects' by placing an object in an unusual setting can lead to captivating images.
- 🖌️ 'Style stacking' involves layering multiple styles and elements onto a base prompt, such as 'Pikachu as the Terminator DMT style 3D render', to create complex and detailed images.
- 🔄 'Chain prompting' is a technique where an image is used as a starting point, and then iteratively built upon by adding new elements and styles, leading to a continuous creative process.
- 🤖 AI's interpretation process still introduces an element of unpredictability, making the final image not always match the exact vision but often resulting in something equally intriguing.
- 🎭 A 'very detailed prompt' allows for greater control over the final image by specifying the main subject, details, background, art style, lighting, colors, and parameters.
- 📝 When using detailed prompts, highlighting parts for changes can help refine the image to better match the desired outcome.
- 🌈 The use of 'aspect ratio', 'stylize' parameters, and other settings can further customize the image to the creator's preference.
- 💡 Encouraging creativity by allowing some unpredictability in the AI's output can lead to unexpected and exciting results.
- 🔗 Sharing an image created by AI with others allows them to use it as a starting point for their own 'chain prompting', expanding the collaborative creative possibilities.
Q & A
What is the term used in the script to describe a simple one or two-word prompt that can create an interesting image?
-The term used in the script for a simple one or two-word prompt that can create an interesting image is 'blunt prompt'.
How does the script suggest enhancing a simple object prompt?
-The script suggests enhancing a simple object prompt by adding a strong style to it, such as 'DMT style', to create a unique and interesting image.
What is the concept of 'contrasted styles' in prompt formulas?
-The concept of 'contrasted styles' involves combining two conflicting styles, such as traditional and modern, to create a unique blend, like 'Yukio a with 3D render', giving a modern twist to a traditional art style.
How does the script define 'style stacking'?
-Style stacking is defined in the script as a method where you take a simple prompt and continuously add more styles and elements to it, building upon the initial image to create a complex and detailed result.
What is 'chain prompting' and how does it work?
-Chain prompting is a technique where you take an image you like, upscale it, and then use it as a reference in a new image prompt, continuously building and remixing images to explore different creative outcomes.
What is the purpose of the 'very detailed prompt' formula mentioned in the script?
-The 'very detailed prompt' formula is used to describe and take full control over the desired image, specifying the main subject, details of subjects, background, art image style, lighting, colors, and parameters to achieve a more predictable and customized result.
How can the 'remix mode' be utilized in image prompting?
-The 'remix mode' can be utilized by typing in '/settings turn on remix', which allows users to add more elements and tweaks to the image, enhancing creativity and exploration in the image generation process.
What advice does the script give regarding the expectations from AI-generated images?
-The script advises users not to expect the exact images they envisioned but to embrace the creativity and uniqueness that AI brings to the image generation process, comparing it to hiring your own artist.
What is the benefit of using Mid Journey for image creation as described in the script?
-The benefit of using Mid Journey for image creation, as described in the script, is that it allows users to explore their creativity by providing a platform to generate unique images based on their prompts, even if the final result is not exactly what they envisioned.
How can users access the cheat sheet mentioned in the script for parameters?
-Users can access the cheat sheet for parameters by signing up for the email newsletter, and the link to it will be provided in the description below the video.
What is the significance of the aspect ratio and stylize parameters in the detailed prompt formula?
-The aspect ratio and stylize parameters in the detailed prompt formula are important as they provide more control over the final image's appearance, such as the image's shape and stylization, contributing to the desired aesthetic and composition.
Outlines
🎨 Exploring Prompt Formulas in Art Creation
This paragraph delves into the various methods of crafting prompts for generating art. It begins with the concept of 'blunt prompts', which involve simple words or phrases that lead to interesting interpretations. The speaker then introduces more complex formulas, starting with combining a simple object with a distinct style, such as a mythical beast in a DMT style. The paragraph also touches on contrasting styles, where two different styles are merged, and contrasting objects, which involve placing an item in an unexpected setting or combining it with a contrasting style. The speaker emphasizes the creativity and uniqueness that can be achieved through these methods.
🔨 Style Stacking and Chain Prompting Techniques
This section discusses advanced techniques for art generation, namely 'style stacking' and 'chain prompting'. Style stacking involves building upon a base prompt by adding multiple styles, as demonstrated with the example of Pikachu as the Terminator in various styles and renderings. Chain prompting, on the other hand, is a process where an initial image is upscaled and used as a reference for subsequent prompts, allowing for a continuous evolution of the artwork. The speaker highlights the creative potential of these methods, as they enable the exploration of endless possibilities and the sharing of creative paths with others.
🎭 Crafting Detailed and Controlled Art Prompts
The final paragraph focuses on creating detailed and controlled art prompts. The speaker explains the process of meticulously describing the main subject, its details, the background, art style, lighting, colors, and other parameters. By inputting this comprehensive information into the art generation tool, one can exert greater control over the final image, although there is still an element of unpredictability. The speaker encourages embracing the creative process and the unique results it yields, rather than striving for exact preconceived visions.
