    For the dash dash video, one thing I like to do is reroll blends stepping up the chaos every time (15, 25, 35, 50, 75 etc) it's great because you get more variety than you get from just rerolling without adding prompt direction

  • @mcasualjacques
    @mcasualjacques 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Based on the transcript you provided, here are some key pieces of advice and concepts related to prompting for image generation:
    Brevity: Keep prompts relatively short due to token limitations (around 77 tokens).
    Medium: Experiment with different mediums such as photo, painting, TV show era, comic book illustration, etc.
    Style and Composition: Explore different styles like Pixar, Tim Burton, etc., and consider how composition affects the overall look.
    Camera Angles and Shots: Use specific camera angles and shots to direct the image generation process.
    Scene: Describe the scene with details like actions, props, and location to influence the generated image.
    Atmospheric Effects: Specify atmospheric effects like lighting, fog, weather, time of day, and seasons to set the mood.
    Chaos Command: Utilize the chaos command to introduce variability and stimulate imagination.
    Experimentation: Encouragement to experiment and have fun with different prompts and styles.
    Some key words and concepts involved include: prompt framework, medium, style, composition, camera angles, shots, scene description, atmospheric effects, chaos command, experimentation.

    I really enjoy seeing these template things. I independently came up with the following for art prompts: [art style][artist][medium] of [subject][descriptor 1,2,3][technical parameters] where descriptors are things which add information such as what he gave, but some other examples would be time of day, sky information (e.g. Golden hour, interesting clouds), weather, texture/pattern, emotion, season, color palette, blur, lighting, etc. For photos it’s very similar, but I keep the descriptors to just two, and add [camera info] as a section, which includes as required the camera, film, and lens, but you could add more optional camera info to this as desired.

    • @TheoreticallyMedia
      @TheoreticallyMedia  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Love that! And it really goes back to what I always say: there is no right or wrong way to prompt.
      The whole “prompt guru” thing that was popular awhile back has thankfully phased out, since I think most people see the snake oil.
      It really all come down to concepts and tokens. The vocabulary to express what you want to see, and to some degree, the order in which you present it to the bot. That’s the fun and art of it!

Like striped dress and floral background. I tried photobashing, ::, --iw, reference link, and all the parameters. What I mean is that I feel theres no way to reeeeeally get the control of it. If you ask for a specific color or pattern, etc MJ just tend to ignore others words of the prompt. Thank you!

    One point I have with using the chaos parameter, I did a bunch of tests with and without it cranked to 0, 50 and then 100 and every time without fail I got significantly better output the lower the chaos was set. I don't use it at all anymore so it was interesting to hear that you use it constantly. Maybe I'll give it some more testing.

And yeah, I wouldn't say I always use Chaos, but I do find it helpful when you're searching for something you can't quite put your finger in. I almost treat it like free association-- And I'll say, it often leads me to some unexpected ideas, or inspires me to take a new approach to an idea that I've been working on. It can be a dice roll though! And just like real life: The dice aren't always in your favor!

      Not...yet. There are some tricks to get a similar output, but MJ has been weirdly steadfast on not being able to repeat the same character. They've been talking about "Storytelling" tools in development, which I think solve the problem. My guess is that it will be a suite of features that will consist of Character, Location, and Emotion...but we'll see.
      In the meantime, I generally will use a combo of --seed and prompts that direct a very simple character: "Woman, mid 20s, blonde hair, black dress" -- That simple "Blonde Hair/Black Dress" will usually get you in the ballpark with a few re-rolls, and then you can face swap from there.

    This channel has become my top preference for MJ. I have a question regarding the creation of a detailed scene or photo featuring multiple characters. For example, I want to create an image with 2 couples. Specifically, I would like to know how to accurately depict the height, physique, hair color, age, and positioning of each person in the image. Lately, despite the last two updates, I have been experiencing issues where the generated images consistently depict anything but 2 couples I adked for. Instead, I get, three men or two women, and one man, rather than the 2 couples I inputted.
    Any tips on how resolve?

    I guess I'm wondering where in the prompt the command starts to trail off into something I didn't ask for? Do you have suggestions that would help keep images more attuned to their time in history?

    Greetings. My question is, If I use a picture of someone's face, how can I force midjourney to stay loyal to the features of the person? Ive used real pictures of people but the result changes the person to the point it's just someone else, sometimes with too much filter. For example Ive used the picture of a man with a beard and the beard looks almost like makeup or airbrush but not real facial hair.

    • @TheoreticallyMedia
      @TheoreticallyMedia  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah. That’s a “feature not a bug”’of MJ. Mostly to avoid abuse with face swapping and creating harmful images. So, I kinda get it. You can use a tool like InsightFace to accomplish it though, you can check out a video I did on it here:

    • @TheoreticallyMedia

      one trick there-- and this is kind of funny, considering in the early MJ days, we were always trying to do the opposite (since characters always stood with their backs to camera and we were trying to get them to face camera!)-- But, let's try something like this (using our pal, the Man in the Blue Business Suit:
      /imagine Rear view, from behind, a man in a blue business suit. The suit has a vent in the back that is slightly open, suggesting movement. The back of the suit jacket is smooth and well-fitted, with a noticeable sharp crease down the sleeves. His posture is upright. The back of his neck is visible.
      By reenforcing "back" and giving details about the back of the suit, we're basically telling MJ, "give me a back shot"-- It might not be the most exciting shot in the world, but it'll work! Color as needed!

Camera angle: Close-up. Atmospheric effect: Misty fog surrounds the astronaut, adding to the sense of wonder and discovery."

      From my experiments, it is. Although things are changing, this still works. The language model is smart enough to know what you’re looking for via this prompt format.
