The Ultimate MidJourney Prompting Guide

The speaker introduces the video as an Ultimate Guide to creating diverse and imaginative images using Mid Journey, a tool that leverages AI to generate art. They showcase examples of various styles such as cool images, video game-inspired art, infographics, watercolors, and posters. The guide promises to cover all these styles and more. The first step is to join the beta version of Mid Journey through the website, which requires a Discord account. The speaker suggests using the Mid Journey bot in Discord for a personalized experience and guides viewers on how to access and use it. They also explain the importance of adjusting settings for optimal image quality, specifically mentioning the use of Mid Journey version 4 and enabling 'remix mode' for enhanced creative possibilities.

The speaker explains how to customize prompts in Mid Journey to generate specific images, such as a wolf wearing a top hat on the beach. They detail the process of typing a prompt followed by additional parameters like aspect ratio (e.g., 3:2 for landscape or 2:3 for portrait). The speaker also discusses the use of negative prompts to exclude certain elements from the images, noting that this feature may not always work as expected in Mid Journey version 4. They demonstrate the process of generating images based on prompts and show how to upscale a preferred image to create a larger version, further exploring variations by tweaking prompts and utilizing remix mode for additional creative control.

The speaker shares a technique for maintaining a consistent style across images by using the same 'seed' number that generated a previously liked image. They describe how to find and use this seed number to create new images with a similar aesthetic. The guide also covers how to upscale and remaster images to improve their quality or correct issues like odd proportions. The speaker emphasizes the iterative process of refining prompts and experimenting with different settings to achieve the desired outcome in Mid Journey.

The guide transitions into advanced techniques by highlighting the work of other artists and creators who have shared their Mid Journey prompts on social media. The speaker recommends following these artists for inspiration and demonstrates how to use their prompts to generate unique images. Examples include a 'synthwave' style portrait, duotone images with a limited color palette, and styles reminiscent of 1990s point-and-click video games. The speaker also introduces prompts from other creators, resulting in images with artistic and retro video game aesthetics, as well as watercolor sketches and diagrammatic drawings.

The speaker delves into more advanced features of Mid Journey, such as uploading personal images and iterating off them to create stylized versions of oneself. They also discuss blending two images together using remix mode to generate hybrid creations. The guide showcases the results of blending a wolf with a dragon and adding artistic prompts to create imaginative and colorful outcomes. The speaker concludes with a favorite technique inspired by 'futureTech pilot,' which involves blending an abstract art prompt with a portrait to produce one-of-a-kind artistic images.

In the conclusion, the speaker provides additional resources for inspiration, such as the Mid Journey subreddit and chat GPT for AI-generated prompts. They also mention Future Tools, a curated collection of AI tools and prompts, as a valuable resource for those interested in exploring Mid Journey further. The guide wraps up with a thank you note and a sign-off, encouraging viewers to explore and experiment with Mid Journey to create their own unique art.
