Architecture Prompt Parameters for Midjourney AI 📝
TLDRIn this video, we explore the intricacies of using Midjourney AI for generating architecture images. The video distinguishes between basic and advanced prompts, with the latter offering more customization through parameters. The 'aspect' parameter allows for different image ratios, while 'chaos' introduces variability to the output. The 'no' parameter removes specific elements, and 'quality' determines rendering time and detail level. Advanced features include 'uplight' and 'upbeta' for softer images and 'stylized' for artistic influence. Remix mode and seed parameters allow for iterative adjustments, while image URLs can influence composition and style. The 'blend' command merges multiple images into one, and 'image weight' in Midjourney 5 prioritizes certain visual elements. The video also discusses version preferences, with version 4 leaning towards an artistic style and version 5 providing photorealism. Overall, the video serves as a comprehensive guide to harnessing the creative potential of Midjourney AI for architectural visualizations.
Takeaways
- 📝 Basic prompts are simple text strings or emojis, while advanced prompts consist of image URLs, prompt text, and parameters.
- 🖼️ Image URLs are placed at the beginning of an advanced prompt, followed by the prompt text, and then parameters.
- 📏 The aspect ratio parameter can be adjusted in Midjourney versions 4 and 5, offering different ratios for square, portrait, and landscape images.
- 🔄 The chaos parameter controls the variability of the generated images, with a range from 0 to 100, defaulting to zero.
- ❌ The 'no' parameter attempts to remove a specific element from the generated image.
- 🎨 The quality parameter determines the rendering time and detail level of the image, with higher values suitable for architectural images or drawings.
- 🌟 Uplight and up beta parameters affect the detail level of upscaled images, with uplight producing softer images and up beta creating less detailed grids.
- 🎭 The stylized parameter adjusts the artistic style of the image, with higher values resulting in more artistic outputs.
- 📹 Midjourney can create short videos of image creation, available in specific model versions.
- 🏢 Version 4 of Midjourney is preferred for an artistic style, while version 5 is more photorealistic.
- 🔄 Remix mode allows for modifications to the initial image by changing prompts, parameters, and model versions.
- 🌱 The seed parameter uses a visual noise field to create the initial image grid, and the same seed number will produce the same image with the same prompt.
Q & A
What are the two types of prompts that can be used with Midjourney AI?
-The two types of prompts are basic and advanced. A basic prompt is a simple text string or an emoji, while an advanced prompt consists of an image, URLs, the prompt text, and parameters.
How does the aspect ratio parameter work in Midjourney AI?
-The aspect parameter allows you to change the aspect ratio of the generated image. In version 4, you can choose between 1:1 (square), 1:2 (portrait), and 2:1 (landscape). In version 5, you can select higher ratios like 3:1 and 1:4.
What is the purpose of the chaos parameter in Midjourney AI?
-The chaos parameter adjusts the variability and randomness of the generated results. You can set it to any number between 0 and 100, with 0 being the default for a more predictable outcome.
How does the 'no' parameter function in Midjourney AI?
-The 'no' parameter is used to attempt the omission or removal of a specific element from the generated image.
What is the role of the quality parameter in determining the render quality of an image?
-The quality parameter determines the level of detail and the time spent rendering the image. It does not affect the resolution but influences the rendering quality, with higher values being better for detailed images like architectural drawings.
What are the differences between the 'uplight' and 'upbeta' parameters in Midjourney AI?
-Both 'uplight' and 'upbeta' are parameters used after an image has been upscaled. 'Uplight' creates images that are slightly softer with fewer details, while 'upbeta' generates an image grid with significantly less detail.
How does the 'stylized' parameter affect the artistic nature of the generated images?
-The 'stylized' parameter controls the level of artistic influence in the generated images. A lower value results in less artistic output, while a higher value increases the artistic qualities such as color, composition, and form.
What is the 'remix mode' in Midjourney AI used for?
-Remix mode is used to modify prompts, parameters, model versions, and aspect ratios between different iterations, creating a new image that resembles the initial image but with the specified changes.
Can you explain the concept of a 'seed' in Midjourney AI?
-A seed is a unique identifier for each generated image based on a field of visual noise. It ensures that if the same prompt and seed number are used, the output image will be identical. Seeds can be used to make adjustments or variations on a previously created image.
How can image URLs be used in prompts with Midjourney AI?
-Image URLs can be included in a prompt to influence the composition, style, and color of the generated image. They can be used standalone or combined with text prompts and other parameters. Multiple image URLs can also be used in the same prompt.
What is the 'blend' command in Midjourney AI, and how does it work?
-The 'blend' command is a feature that allows you to blend two to five images together. Midjourney AI takes the concepts and aesthetics of each selected image and merges them into a single new image.
How does the 'image weight' parameter in Midjourney AI affect the rendering process?
-The 'image weight' parameter determines how much influence an image URL has on the rendering of the final image. A higher image weight makes the image URL's influence more significant, while a lower value makes it less impactful.

📝 Understanding Basic and Advanced Prompts
This paragraph introduces the concept of basic and advanced prompts. Basic prompts are simple text strings or emojis, while advanced prompts consist of three parts: an image, URLs, prompt text, and parameters. Parameters are settings that alter how the AI generates images and are added at the end of a prompt with two hyphens. The paragraph also discusses specific parameters suitable for architecture images, such as aspect ratio, chaos, no, quality, uplight, up beta, stylized, and version-specific parameters. It emphasizes the preference for Mid-Journey version 4 for its artistic style and version 5 for photorealism. Additionally, it covers advanced parameters and settings like Remix mode, seed, blend, and image weight, explaining how they influence the rendering process.
🎨 Remix Mode and Seed Parameter in Image Creation
The second paragraph delves into the use of Remix mode and the seed parameter in Mid-Journey. Remix mode allows users to modify prompts, parameters, model versions, and aspect ratios to create variations of an initial image. The seed parameter is a unique identifier for each image generated, which can be set manually or assigned by default. The paragraph explains how to find a seed number for an existing image and how using the same seed number with different prompts can result in adjusted images. It also highlights the difference between remix and seed adjustments and how image URLs can be integrated into prompts to influence the AI's rendering.
🌐 Image URL Integration and Blend Command
The final paragraph focuses on the integration of image URLs into prompts to guide the AI's image generation process. It demonstrates how to upload an image to Discord, copy its link, and use it in a prompt to create an image inspired by that specific image. The paragraph also introduces the image weight parameter, which allows users to determine the influence of the image URL on the final render, and is available in Mid-Journey version 5. Lastly, it discusses the blend command, which merges concepts and aesthetics from two to five images into a single new image, and provides a step-by-step guide on how to use this feature.
