  1. I did not get the same results using the exact same prompts, even after re-rolls (6:15). Even with "Unreal Engine" it shows mostly 2D characters. I'll add other 3D renderers to increase the probability. But the results are not clean and consistent. It's important people know that.

  2. While I do not agree that placing the art style at the front achieves the best results, I do fully agree that the sequence of placement of words and phrases does matter.

  3. The Midjourney Image Database site is very helpful for users to double check if midjourney understands the words and phrases we are using correctly. A spacing can change the entire meaning of the prompt.

    E.g.

    Liu Yi Fei = Old man Photograph
    Liu yifei = Chinese Celebrity

  4. Thank you so much for these mid Journey tutorials. I'm a person that learns visually so this is really helpful, but I don't always have the time or want to make the time to go back and rewatch videos for instructions again. Do you think you could create a PDF visual guide that you update as you go along?

  5. Yes. AI prompting is definitely a discipline in its own right. Maybe usefull for standalone pictures. As a storyteller needing a consistent series of closely and precisely related images it is becoming increasingly more clear to me that the time I would have to put in acquiring this skill with such a vague results and quasi impossible continuity in detailing is not efficient at all. Commissioning the work to a real human skill is still far far more effective and quicker in the end. Hence even cheaper if your time is valuable. Neverning being more rewarding.

  6. Earlier words being weighted more heavily in the prompt is just not true. They are all weighted equally unless specified with different weight values. (according to their documentattion)

  7. Regarding your question, why the guy looks so much like Miyazaki himself: I'm just guessing here, but – doesn't AI image generation work with connections (from words in the prompt, and their context, to images), at least roughly speaking? And now really, what person does have a stronger connection to Studio Ghibli than him? Wouldn't be too surprised if he showed up in the training data quite often, in that context πŸ˜„…

  8. Love the succinct way you teach. Short and right to the point. I have learnt lots. I was using different prompts to create a celestial fantasy angel and didn’t get much success. Will try your prompts tomorrow and see what Midjourney comes up with. I feel I will get better results as I was getting a bit frustrated so I gave up. Thank you. πŸŒ»πŸ¦‹πŸ™πŸ’“

  9. I think it's probably better to leave out the style of at the beginning, instead after the "main idea" type "by (artist)". This works much better than describing the style such as "akira style" or "gihbli style", as you can target the exact style you want by the artist name. You can also mix artists, like "by (artist 1) and (artist 2).

  10. I wish people that were doing these types of videos around AI would include the prompts, seeds, and settings that create these images (at least the base one) so that we can attempt to recreate them and have a starting point to then learn and grow from. But, they rarely do.

  11. It’s really hard to see the prompts you are typing in your video. If this is a tutorial you should either show them larger on the screen or include the prompts in the description
