For any/all story tellers.
Storyboarding became easier (overnight)
Characters stay consistent in...
+ Multiple Settings
+ Multiple Poses
+ Multiple Actions
So if you have a story to tell…
You can now do it with MJ.
That being said…
Prompting correctly is essential.
Prompt Tips:
+ Be extremely specific
+ Focus on very small details
+ Like eye direction/body part position/etc
+ Reinforce ***, hair, etc
+ Build a story with your words
+ [See prompt example 1 below]
***Disclaimer:
This is a very simple storyboard.
You don’t just push one button...
And get a finished. (Needs to be said)
Here’s how to do it:
01. Create a base character in MJ
02. Copy image url
03. Create new prompt
04. Add [--cref] parameter
05. Paste image URL
06. Generate images.
07. Iterate prompts.
Base Prompt structure:
Photo type: street photography, [shot type], subject:[character description], [action],[character details], wearing:[*** specifics] subject focus: sharp focus, mid-ground, environment: [setting], [lighting], texture: [texture description], image type: 35mm --ar 2:1
Prompt Example 1:
Photo type: street photography lifestyle, closeup side profile, subject: 30 year old man, sitting on front porch steps, sipping coffee from a small white mug, mug lifted to his mouth, mouth on mug, subtle steam from the mug, tan skin, dirty blonde hair, wearing: lime green beanie, oversized acid wash grey hoodie, black jeans, subject focus: sharp focus, mid ground, environment: mountain environment, bright morning light creating rim effect, texture: minimalist clean architecture, image type: 35mm --ar 2:1 --cref {image link}
Prompt Example 2:
Photo type: street photography lifestyle, closeup diagonal shot, subject: 30 year old man, putting on a lime green beanie, hands up, pulling sides of beanie onto his head, tan skin, wet dirty blonde hair, beard stubble, subject focus: sharp focus, mid ground, environment: modern bedroom, diffused lighting, texture: minimalist clean architecture, image type: 35mm --ar 2:1 --cref {image link} --cw 90
Thoughts:
+ This is not perfect
+ Tattoos will never be consistent
+ This story is super basic
+ But you can see how this could apply broadly.
