Midjourney prompt examples

Introduction

Midjourney is an independent research lab led by David Holz, co-founder of Leap Motion. The lab has developed an artificial intelligence program under the same name that creates images from textual descriptions, similar to OpenAI's DALL-E and Stable Diffusion. It is speculated that the underlying technology is based on Stable Diffusion. The tool is currently in open beta, which it entered on July 12, 2022.

Midjourney has gained popularity among users who enjoy creating artwork using Discord bot commands. Despite being in the beta phase, Midjourney has already turned profitable, as revealed by David Holz in an interview with The Register in August 2022. With its unique features and capabilities, Midjourney has the potential to become a game-changer in the field of AI-generated art.

Overview

I wanted to test first-hand how Midjourney works, so I decided to write a few prompts and see what the results would be.

I used the following format for my prompts:

  • /imagine a bottle full of water, by <artist>
  • /imagine a bottle full of water, as <style>
  • /imagine a bottle full of water, <style>
  • /imagine a bottle full of water, <style>
  • /imagine a bottle full of water, in the style of <style>
  • /imagine <description> as a bottle full of water
