Tips
- 1Maintain character consistency by including character descriptions and visual cues (e.g., 'protagonist with red scarf, disheveled hair') in every relevant prompt. Consider using 'character sheet' or 'concept art' as part of your initial character design prompts to establish a baseline.
- 2Use sequential numbering or clear scene descriptors (e.g., 'SCENE 1A: Establishing Shot', 'SCENE 1B: Close-up on expression') in your prompts to help organize and mentally link your storyboard panels.
- 3Experiment with different 'VISUAL STYLE' values like 'graphic novel,' 'animation cel,' 'film noir still,' or 'hyperrealistic concept art' to match the intended aesthetic of your final project.
- 4To achieve a consistent 'camera' feel, specify the 'CAMERA' and 'LENS' parameters in each prompt. For instance, always include 'CAMERA: Arri Alexa, LENS: 35mm Prime' for a unified cinematic look.
- 5Focus on conveying emotion and action. Use descriptive adjectives for expressions ('determined gaze,' 'fearful gasp') and movement ('dynamic leap,' 'slow turn') to guide Midjourney in generating impactful visuals for your narrative.
