Midjourney en ik zijn weer samen 🥰
In deze nieuwsbrief neem ik je mee in mijn laatste experiment.
Toen Nano Banana uitkwam, heb ik Midjourney eigenlijk vrij snel aan de kant geschoven. Logisch ook. Nano Banana is gewoon heel goed in consistentie. Eén beeld neerzetten en daar strak op doorbouwen. Zeker voor productbeelden, portretten en architectuur werkt het erg goed.
Maar na een tijdje begon ik iets te missen.
Alles klopte, maar het werd ook een beetje… saai. Minder ruimte om te spelen, om iets geks te proberen, om te kijken wat er gebeurt als je net de verkeerde afslag neemt. En dat is meestal precies waar bij mij de interessante ideeën ontstaan.
Dus ben ik toch weer bij Midjourney uitgekomen. Je kunt er nog steeds eindeloos klooien met licht, schaduw, materiaal en compositie. Gewoon dingen proberen en kijken wat blijft hangen.
Wat me trouwens verraste, is dat Midjourney inmiddels ook prima met consistente karakters kan omgaan, zolang je het slim aanpakt. Vooral als je meerdere varianten tegelijk maakt, krijg je ineens veel meer grip.
Zo heb ik vandaag een split screen karakter gemaakt. Links een close up, rechts dezelfde persoon maar dan full body. In één beeld. Dat geeft meteen houvast. Je hebt direct meerdere versies waar je verder op kunt bouwen, ook in andere tools.
Ik moet zeggen dat ik hier echt van kan genieten. Gewoon spelen met al deze elementen, zonder vast te zitten aan een vaste of standaard workflow.
De basisprompt:
Dit is de prompt die ik gebruik voor een splitscreen. In combinatie met --ar 3:2 (aspectratio) heb je meteen een fijne basis om verder te experimenteren.
