Image Weights & Multi-Prompts

Weight text and yes! You can weight images!
Today's video is all about your creative prompts, ones plucked right from the comments section of my videos. There's a mix of the random, the artistic, and the downright imaginative. I guarantee there's a prompt here that kick your creativity into high gear. In the ever-evolving world of AI, we're all learners. These are the prompts that got me excited! I’m using Midjourney, but the spirit of these prompts is universal, sparking creativity across platforms. Smash some words together, don't worry about them making sense and toss your word salad at the AI. You'll probably make something amazing!
Today's video is all about multi-prompts in Midjourney - what they are, when to use them, and how to weight them properly for the best results. Today, I’ll be working in MJ version 5.2. Stick around until the end and I’ll show you how to use MP with images!
Multi-prompts allow you to combine multiple ideas into a single image. But they can go off the rails if you don't understand how Midjourney prioritizes and blends your prompts. I'll explain prompt weighting so you can have more control when mixing concepts. We’ll cover:
- What are multi-prompts and how do they work?
- When should you use multi- vs single prompts?
-Prompt weighting - how MJ combines your ideas
⏱️ Tips for better multi-prompt results
⏱️ Using multi-prompts with init images
Multi-prompts are powerful but tricky. Learn how Midjourney handles multiple prompts, weight them intentionally, and unlock more creativity and precision!

I am very experienced with multi prompts, but this is probably the best and simplest tutorial I have seen on them. Good job.

[@MakingPhoto]

Wow, thanks! Questions on MP come up a lot on MJ.

[@ericuk9481]

Love your videos ... and your voice. It is nice to follow you.

[@MakingPhoto]

Thank you so much!

[@richardglady3009]

Thank you for a very good explanation of a very difficult concept. New subscriber.

[@MakingPhoto]

No problem! This question comes up a lot on the Discord feed.

[@rdrim]

Very informative. :: 😊

[@MakingPhoto]

No :: Problem!

[@StijnHommes]

I just saw a video that showed that images can now be waited like text prompts and each image can now be weighted separately.

[@MakingPhoto]

Yes! I think I do this in the video URL::2 URL::1.5

[@StijnHommes]

@@MakingPhoto Sorry. I think I jumped the gun to respond and let you know when I first saw you use --iw image weights.

[@johnhawkinshawkins1284]

When will MJ become professional and have its own web version?

[@MakingPhoto]

The team is working on it. But it's taking a while! There's an old alpha version that I've played on , but they've scrapped it. Building something new.

[@presenters24-de]

Your conclusion is very helpful! I think that (professional) natural language will deliver best results, too. It is not the intention of Midjourney's developer to create a specific programming language. The future will not be in "prompt engineering".

[@MakingPhoto]

I see a lot of questions on the Discord about multi-prompts, but I don't use them often. I approached the topic with an open mind. But I still don't think I'll use them often.

[@presenters24-de]

In your very informative video you demonstrate the possibilities of multi-prompts in an unbiased way. Thank you very much for that, as it will help to save a lot of time.

[@ewanstevenson]

Thanks. I never knew you could do that. Really should RTFM!

[@MakingPhoto]

:) Who wants to read?

[@gamingmuscle6715]

I was trying to figure out how to add negative prompts (Leonardian here). Now I know how :)

[@LouisGedo]

5:11 Wow......that group of 4 images looks so much like a theme I was working on a few months ago and to which I found multi-prompting to be quite helpful.....fascinating that I see it with one of my favorite YT AI content creator's channel. Great minds think alike?

[@MakingPhoto]

Interior design gone mad!

[@LouisGedo]

@@MakingPhoto I 💜 it!!!

[@JesusSunrisePrayers]

The best

[@hansimeier6587]

Amazing video! But how to get around this multiprompting challenge on other platforms like stable diffusion, Bing or Firefly?

[@MakingPhoto]

You can emphasize elements of SD by using ((content)) which weights the content in parentheses.

[@hansimeier6587]

@@MakingPhoto Thank you for the quick response. I aimed more on multiprompting. I understand multiprompting as a technique in Midjourney and (probably) Blue Willow where I can use ":" to agglutinate different small prompt into one big prompt. To my knowledge that doesn't work on other platforms. But maybe you know a clever work around. Thank you for your great content anyway. One of the places where I learn most about AI image generation.

[@jcehlert]

Nice video. I didn't know about these commands because I refuse to read.

[@MakingPhoto]

I've got you covered.

[@LouisGedo]

Hi, I have found multi-prompts to be sometimes extremely useful......not always, but sometimes it can work magic where a regular prompt just doesn't get as good results

[@MakingPhoto]

Multi-prompts can do amazing things. But you have to wrap your head around them. They can also mess up your image completely.

[@LouisGedo]

@@MakingPhoto That is true. Maybe it's like a seasoning; it can do amazingly good things to recipes........but if used recklessly, it can destroy a dish!

[@MakingPhoto]

@@LouisGedo This is a really good analogy. Spice it up!

[@tomkent4656]

Promts?

[@MakingPhoto]

oops

[@jah6216]
