Want to make better AI art with Midjourney? It's easier than you think! These simple tips will help you create amazing images. Let's dive in!
Tip #1: Focus on the Positive
Instead of saying what you *don't* want, say what you *do* want. For example, instead of "a farm with no dogs," try "a farm with cows, pigs, and various animals." Midjourney focuses on the words it sees. So, tell it exactly what to include. But what if focusing on the positive doesn't work? Then you can try negative prompts! Just type "no [insert negative word here]" at the end of the prompt.
Tip #2: Prioritize Your Words
Put the most important words at the start of your prompt. Midjourney pays more attention to what comes first. So, if you want a bull to be the main focus, start with "a massive evil bull on a nice farm." If you want to focus on the farm, switch it around to "a nice farm with a massive evil bull."
This also works for styles. Want a minimalist logo? Put "minimalist logo" at the beginning: "A minimalist logo of a massive evil bull on a nice farm."
Tip #3: Define Colors and Lighting
Take control of your image by specifying colors and lighting. Want pastel colors? Add "pastel colors" to your prompt. Prefer neon? Use "neon colors." You can also be specific: "blue and green color palette" or "sepia colors."
For lighting, try "low contrast," "high contrast," "dark low lighting," "very sunny lighting," or "golden hour lighting." Experiment to see what looks best!
Tip #4: Use Word Weight and Multi-Prompts
Midjourney lets you fine-tune your prompts with word weight. Add two colons after a word, then a number to give it more importance. One is the default. Higher numbers give a word more priority. For example: "massive evil bull::3 in a nice farm::1".
Multi-prompts let you separate ideas. Use two colons to divide your prompt: "outside hot :: dog". This tells Midjourney to create two separate parts: "outside hot" and "dog", instead of a "hot dog" food image.

Tip #5: Learn About Art and Photography
The more you know about art and photography, the better you can describe what you want. Study different styles, artists, and techniques. This will expand your vocabulary and help you communicate more effectively with Midjourney.
Tip #6: Keep Prompts Short and Sweet
Long prompts can be distracting. Focus on the most important aspects of your image. Cut out unnecessary words and details. A shorter, denser prompt is easier to adjust and gives you more control.
For example, instead of "create an artwork of a small monkey in the stall of modern video game built on Unreal Engine, the monkey is standing in a forest environment with trees beautiful nature and bright blue Sunny sky in the background," try "Unreal Engine 3D render of a monkey, Forest, Sunny Sky, High Contrast, earthy tones."
Use the /Shorten Command
In Discord, type `/shorten` followed by your prompt. Midjourney will suggest shorter versions, highlighting the most important words. This is a great way to remove distractions and focus on the key elements of your image.
Tip #7: Define Distinct Styles
Mentioning a style can greatly influence the image. Try "watercolor painting," "ink dripping drawing," "DSLR photo," "Sci-Fi Blockbuster movie screen cap," or "anime 1990 film screen cap." You can also experiment with materials like "ice sculpture."
Tip #8: Use Artist Names
Referencing artists can help you achieve specific looks. Try "in the style of H.R. Giger," "Picasso," "Salvador Dali," or "Leonardo da Vinci." You can even combine styles: "the combined style of Hans Bellmer and Picasso."

Tip #9: Get Inspired by Others
Look at other people's prompts to get ideas. Check out the Midjourney explore page or social media. See how others are wording their prompts and what phrases they're using. This can spark new ideas and help you improve your own prompts.
Tip #10: Split Prompts with Permutations
Take an existing prompt and break it into shorter phrases using permutations. Use curly brackets and commas to separate the phrases: `{antique Photography in a gotic city, in the 1900s, Dark Fantasy}`. This lets you see the impact of each phrase on the image.
Tip #11: Describe Angle and Framing
Control the perspective of your images by describing the angle and framing. Try "high angle," "low angle," "landscape shot," "closeup," "far away landscape shot," or "side angle."
Tip #12: Reroll and Remix
Don't settle for the first image. Always reroll and remix to fine-tune your results. Use the rerun button on the website or the roll button in Discord. Turn on remix mode in settings to alter the prompt each time you reroll.

Tip #13: Describe the Mood
Describing the mood can greatly affect the look and feel of your image. Try "depressing mood," "excited," "gloomy and spooky," "quiet," "loud," "powerful energy," "Serene Stillness," or "vibrant party energy."
Tip #14: Use Prompt Formulas
Use prompt formulas to speed up your process. A simple formula is: `art style of a subject in a locational scene, mood`. For example: "3D render of a gray star alien in a spaceship, gloomy and spooky." Switch out the elements to create different images.
