I'll show you how you can go from the image on the left to the image on the right in a couple of moves, using the correct tokens combined with my prompting structure.
Let's dive in ...
1โฃ STARTING IMAGE + PROMPT
Let's start with the basic structure and pose for our experiment. So I wanted the subject to:
โก๏ธ be seated on a throne-like chair
โก๏ธ have one leg crossed over the other
โก๏ธ have a hand resting on the arm
โก๏ธ be looking straight at the camera
Prompt:
[Regal, seated on a throne-like chair, one leg crossed over the other, hand resting on the arm, looking directly at the camera with a commanding presence] --ar 4:5 --style raw --stylize 125 --v 6
2โฃ ADDING ETHNICITY
So, in the previous prompt, Midjourney gave me caucasian subjects. I wanted a different ethnicity to work with so I added "Asian ethnicity" a token to let Midjourney know that.
Updated Prompt:
[Asian ethnicity] + [Regal, seated on a throne-like chair, one leg crossed over the other, hand resting on the arm, looking directly at the camera with a commanding presence] --ar 4:5 --style raw --stylize 125 --v 6
By adding a solid background colour to your prompt, you can create standout images that allow your creations to really pop.
I'll show you how (+ PROMPT) below ...๐๐
SOME CLOSE-UP SHOTS
I usually work with an aspect ratio of 4:5, but feel free to experiment as this concept works across multiple sizes!
RED BACKGROUND (with blue + yellow)
YELLOW BACKGROUND (with green + pink)
PURPLE BACKGROUND (with green + pink)
ORANGE BACKGROUND (with green)
PROMPT TEMPLATE:
[type of photo] + [description of subject/model] + [description of clothing] + [solid (your colour) background] + [description of lighting, mood]
1โฃ OUTFIT + TOKENS
I opted for a solid red background, a female model, with light skin, neon blue braided hair, and a metallic yellow high-neck jacket for the outfit. This image was created using @midjourney
