Stage 1

Prompt structure and format

Midjourney reads prompts from left to right with decreasing weight. Subject comes first, then style and mood, then technical parameters. These prompts help you build that structure correctly.

Build a prompt from scratch

Use ChatGPT to build a Midjourney prompt for me. I want to create: [DESCRIBE YOUR IMAGE IDEA IN PLAIN LANGUAGE]. Ask me three questions about style, mood, and technical requirements. Then write a structured Midjourney prompt using this format: [subject] [setting and context] [lighting] [style reference] [camera and lens] [mood descriptors] [parameters].

Prompt structure and format

Expand a short idea into a full prompt

Expand this short image idea into a complete, detailed Midjourney prompt: [YOUR SHORT IDEA]. Add specific lighting, camera settings, artist or style reference, mood descriptors, and end with parameters --ar [RATIO] --v 6. Make the prompt dense with specific visual information but keep it under 60 words before the parameters.

Prompt structure and format

Convert a reference image description

I want to recreate the visual feeling of this image: [DESCRIBE AN IMAGE YOU LIKE IN DETAIL]. Write a Midjourney prompt that would produce something with the same mood, lighting, color palette, and composition style. Do not copy the subject, just the visual language.

Prompt structure and format

Write a prompt for a specific platform format

Write a Midjourney prompt for an image that will be used as: [USE CASE, e.g. Instagram post / website hero image / YouTube thumbnail / LinkedIn banner]. Include the correct aspect ratio for the platform, the visual style that performs well on that platform, and the type of subject and composition that reads clearly at the display size.

Prompt structure and format

Deconstruct a prompt that worked

Here is a Midjourney prompt that produced a great result: [PASTE THE PROMPT]. Analyze why each part of the prompt contributed to the result. Identify: which descriptors had the most impact, what could be removed without changing the result, and what I should change to shift the output in [DIRECTION].

Prompt structure and format

Stage 2

Style and aesthetic modifiers

Style descriptors are the most powerful part of a prompt. These cover how to specify photographic, painterly, illustrative, and cinematic styles effectively.

Photography style modifiers

I want my Midjourney image to look like professional photography. Write a set of photographic modifiers I can add to any prompt to achieve: (1) editorial magazine photography, (2) commercial advertising photography, (3) documentary street photography, (4) fine art photography. For each style, give me the exact phrase to add and the parameters to use.

Style and aesthetic modifiers

Painterly and illustration styles

I want my Midjourney image to have a painterly or illustrated look. Give me the exact prompt modifiers to achieve each of these styles: oil painting, watercolor, gouache, digital painting, ink illustration, linocut, etching. For each, describe what visual qualities it produces and whether to use --style raw or not.

Style and aesthetic modifiers

Artist reference modifiers

I want to reference a specific artist's visual style in Midjourney. For each of these artists or studios, write the exact modifier phrase and describe what visual characteristics it tends to add to a prompt: [LIST 3-5 ARTISTS OR STUDIOS YOU ARE INTERESTED IN]. Note any that are inconsistently interpreted by Midjourney.

Style and aesthetic modifiers

Cinematic film references

I want to add a cinematic quality to my Midjourney images. Give me modifier phrases for these specific visual qualities: (1) Wes Anderson symmetrical pastel aesthetic, (2) Christopher Nolan IMAX dramatic realism, (3) Roger Deakins warm cinematic photography, (4) Blade Runner neon cyberpunk, (5) Studio Ghibli animated film quality.

Style and aesthetic modifiers

Period and decade aesthetics

Give me Midjourney prompt modifiers for these specific era aesthetics: (1) 1920s art deco, (2) 1950s Americana, (3) 1970s film photography, (4) 1980s neon synthwave, (5) 1990s lo-fi grunge. For each, describe the color palette, texture, and visual qualities the modifier tends to produce.

Style and aesthetic modifiers

Stage 3

Technical parameters

Parameters like --ar, --v, --style, --chaos, and --no control the technical output of Midjourney. These prompts explain what each parameter does and when to use it.

Understand the core parameters

Explain what each of these Midjourney parameters does and when to use it: --v 6, --style raw, --ar, --chaos, --weird, --stylize, --no, --seed, --tile, --quality, --iref, --cref. For each parameter, give me a practical example of a situation where changing it would significantly improve results.

Technical parameters

Use --style raw effectively

Explain when to use --style raw versus the default style in Midjourney v6. What types of images benefit from --style raw? What types are better without it? Write three versions of the same prompt: one without any style flag, one with --style raw, and one with --stylize 250. Describe what difference to expect in each output.

Technical parameters

Use negative prompts with --no

Explain how the --no parameter works in Midjourney and when it is most useful. Give me a list of the most commonly excluded elements for these categories: portraits (things like ugly, blurry), product photography, concept art, and architecture. Write an example prompt for each that demonstrates effective --no usage.

Technical parameters

Seed and consistency across images

Explain how --seed works in Midjourney and how to use it to maintain visual consistency across a series of images. Write a workflow for: (1) finding a good seed from a generated image, (2) using that seed to generate variations, (3) combining seed with other parameters for a consistent series. What are the limitations?

Technical parameters

Use image references with --iref and --cref

Explain the difference between --iref (image reference) and --cref (character reference) in Midjourney v6. When should I use each one? Write example use cases for: product photography with a real product, portrait series with a consistent character, and environment design with a consistent style. What weight values should I start with?

Technical parameters

Stage 4

Advanced techniques

Beyond basic prompt structure, these techniques cover multi-prompting, remix mode, inpainting, and iterative refinement workflows.

Multi-prompt and prompt weighting

Explain how multi-prompting works in Midjourney using the :: separator. Give me three examples where separating concepts with :: produces better results than writing them as a single phrase. Explain how the weight values (::2, ::0.5, ::-1) affect the output. When does multi-prompting help and when does it hurt?

Advanced techniques

Build a style reference library

Help me build a personal style reference library in Midjourney. Explain how to: (1) use --sref with style reference images, (2) combine multiple style references with weight values, (3) save and organize effective style references, (4) test a new style reference to understand its visual properties. Write three test prompts I can use to explore any new style reference.

Advanced techniques

Iterative refinement workflow

Write a step-by-step workflow for iterating toward a specific image target in Midjourney. Starting from a rough idea: [DESCRIBE YOUR TARGET IMAGE], walk me through: the first broad exploratory prompt, how to evaluate the results, how to isolate what worked and what did not, the refined second prompt, and how to use Vary Region to fix specific problem areas.

Advanced techniques

Prompt for texture and pattern generation

I want to generate seamless textures and repeating patterns in Midjourney using the --tile parameter. Write five prompts for different texture categories I need: [LIST YOUR NEEDED TEXTURES, e.g. wood grain, fabric, concrete, botanical pattern, geometric]. Include the correct parameters and explain how to test for seamless tiling in Photoshop or CSS.

Advanced techniques

Combine Midjourney with other tools

Describe the best workflow for combining Midjourney with other creative tools. Specifically: (1) using Midjourney output in Adobe Firefly or Photoshop for inpainting and editing, (2) upscaling with Topaz Gigapixel, (3) using Midjourney concepts as a base for Illustrator vector work, (4) integrating Midjourney images into a Figma design system.

Advanced techniques

Frequently asked questions

How long should a Midjourney prompt be?+

Between 20 and 60 words for the descriptive portion before parameters. Short prompts give Midjourney too much creative freedom. Very long prompts dilute the weight of important descriptors. The sweet spot is a dense, specific prompt that covers subject, setting, lighting, and style without padding.

Does word order matter in Midjourney prompts?+

Yes. Midjourney weights words at the beginning of the prompt more heavily than words at the end. Put your most important subject and style descriptors first. Technical parameters like camera lens and film stock can come later without losing much weight.

What are the most impactful things to add to any prompt?+

In order of impact: (1) a specific lighting description, (2) a named artist or photographer reference, (3) a specific camera and lens, (4) a film stock or color grade, (5) a mood or atmosphere descriptor. Adding these five elements to any basic prompt dramatically improves output quality.

How do I fix a specific part of a Midjourney image?+

Use Vary Region (available after upscaling) to repaint a specific area of the image while keeping the rest intact. Describe only the element you want to change in your edit prompt. For major structural changes, it is usually faster to refine your original prompt than to try to fix the output after generation.

What is the difference between --stylize and --chaos?+

--stylize controls how strongly Midjourney applies its own aesthetic sensibility (higher values mean more Midjourney-like, lower values mean closer to your prompt). --chaos controls the variety between the four grid images (higher values produce more varied results). For consistent, prompt-accurate outputs, use low stylize (50-100) and low chaos (0-20).
