[@WadeMcMaster]

Thank you! I definitely thought it would be helpful to a lot of people

[@rodrigorodrigues7304]

You're amazing, man. Your channel really should have 1 million subscribers. Congratulations on all your dedication. I just discovered your work here on KZbin and I'm definitely going to study more from your videos. God bless you. 🔰BR🔰

[@mkingscott]

Already know this video is going to be great - quality content as always 👍 EDIT: yup, there's that value - rule of thirds composition shot, I've been looking for that result 👍

[@WadeMcMaster]

I'm so glad you found that useful! It means a lot thank you . I'm happy to see you coming back and interacting and getting something out these videos :)

[@secretarchivesofthevatican]

Useful! Thanks!

[@thewebstylist]

Always SO great your tips and tricks bro and I usually leave our work building in Pasadena around 9pm and idea time your videos posted as a treat to watch before getting home where I can play with all! Luv Symmetry, have never tried that prompt even though I often prefer that visual balance w certain images 🎉

[@WadeMcMaster]

Thank you mate! I panic if I can't get an MJ video out this time every week haha. I'm happy you still get something out them :)

[@thewebstylist]

All ways tons of value WMCM! We’re all grateful 100 for all u bring

[@WadeMcMaster]

Thanks man..I really appreciate the positive feedback! Every time :)

[@OriginalDramagirl]

More great tips - composition is so, so important and I've been struggling to get mine right in MJ. Thanks heaps, Wade.

[@WadeMcMaster]

Glad I could help, thank you!

[@aiartgifts]

All good information to have, and conveyed in an easily understandible format. Thank you!

[@WadeMcMaster]

Thank you!

[@lunazamoraart]

That Alien top view w camera example is a great idea!!!! Thanks

[@WadeMcMaster]

Thank you! I tried to think of something that wouldn't just work everytime so I could actually present a problem to solve haha

[@dirtywatercolor]

actually helpful and to the point, thank you!

Hi Wade. Thanks for your awesome content. I do not have the same options as you when I right click on "open in browser" (as shown in minute 14.09 on your video). When I click here nothing happens. What do I need to do to ensure I am saving the full resolution image? Thanks for your help.

[@WadeMcMaster]

I would instead go to midjourney.com, log in and go to your archive, you can save from there in full resolution:)

[@mattstory2011]

Hello Wade!!

[@WadeMcMaster]

Hello!

[@MortenNormannAlmeland]

First of all!!!!! Thank you! This was great... but one thing that I did not understand. If I like you say at 14:00 - go save this image or go to the browser and save it - the size is the same. So what am I doing wrong or is it a difference between this two?

[@WadeMcMaster]

Oh, maybe try opening it in a new window completely then saving it? If not, I'd log into Midjourney.com and download from there to be certain you are getting the full resolution image.

[@mkingscott]

Hello Wade - I'm trying to create a background image for a clothing mockup where the camera would be focused on the chest and neck of the "model". Some backgrounds are close to the floor, some are too high - is there a phrase that would place the camera correctly? I'll try "shoulder height photo" and see what happens... Thank you 👍

[@WadeMcMaster]

Yeah, maybe that will work. Also, you could pan down (or up) and then crop out what you don't want? Adobe have afree cropper: www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/crop

[@Jumpyfoot]

Do you have any tips for expressive characters and dynamic scenes? I dislike dead-eyed portrait face of AI image generators. It would be great to be able to create scenes with more intentionality.

[@WadeMcMaster]

I would experiement with emtional phrases, and even take it further from say 'expression of happiness' to 'expression of extreme happiness' or even 'a crazy look of happiness' - as that would make more sense for the AI to change the face. Also, you can try it without that phrase, then use vary region to select the face and those in after.

[@Author_SoftwareDesigner]

Also try variations of intensity + visual cues: happy and smirking , joyful and laughing , ecstatic with tears of joy, exuberant with hands and arms raised in triumph . Anger: irritated with furrowed brows, grumpy with furrowed brows and frown, angry with clenched teeth and scowl, furious and yelling , enraged and snarling

[@Jumpyfoot]

@@Author_SoftwareDesigner This is actually helpful. I'm copying it to my prompt list.

[@Author_SoftwareDesigner]

@@Jumpyfoot yes, always try to have them do a “pose” the is a manifestation of the emotion!!

[@federicoverdicchio]

I am trying to make that first image of the man portrait under the rain but as a 3d videogame render, can you please share the prompt you used? if it was your own image. Thanks a lot!

[@WadeMcMaster]

No worries mate, it's just "Extreme Closeup a man outside in the rain" using v6 if it helps, the seed is 3286499727 - so you can add --seed 3286499727 to the end. if you dont have nay game styles, try adding unreal engine, or 3D video game render or something to end :)

[@Riverfox2012]

Sometimes when MJ doesn't understand "overhead" or "top view," depending on the subject, "RPG map" will get somewhere. It's not always the greatest, but sometimes overhead landscapes (like creating campsites) will get somewhere with RPG map.

[@WadeMcMaster]

That's awesome, I'll give it a try :)

[@Riverfox2012]

@@WadeMcMaster For example, I used this recently to get decent results, combining all associated "overhead" terms:

[@Riverfox2012]

Dungeons & Dragons rpg map of a large military campsite with 3 taut olive green tents, cooking equipment, and camp chairs around the central campfire that is ringed with stones, overhead top-down aerial view --ar 3:2 --no isometric, people, sagging tents --v 6.0 --s 250

[@Riverfox2012]

Mind you, it's a hit and miss with camp chairs but the rest gets somewhere. I'll just edit the images later. ;)

[@WadeMcMaster]

I've popped it into a video, either tomorrow or next Friday :) I really like the effect I got from it!

[@Av-uv6xu]

If you have set v6 in the settings, why do you keep it in every prompt? Is this neccesary?

[@WadeMcMaster]

It's definitely not necessary. I actually don't add it in myself, it's added automatically because it's not the default model (5.2 still is)

[@Av-uv6xu]

@@WadeMcMaster thx

[@lunazamoraart]

I always struggle with views for 16:9

Hopefully these help!
