Image Generation
The difference between a mediocre AI image and a stunning one is entirely in the prompt. Learn to craft prompts that produce gallery-worthy results.
Techniques
Specify Style Precisely
Don't just say 'realistic.' Say 'photorealistic 35mm film photography with shallow depth of field, warm golden-hour lighting, slight grain.' Precision unlocks quality.
Layer Your Composition
Describe foreground, midground, and background separately. Include lighting direction, camera angle, and atmospheric conditions for cinematic results.
Use Negative Prompts
Tell the AI what to avoid: 'no text, no watermarks, no distorted hands.' Negative prompts are as powerful as positive ones for image quality.
Iterate and Refine
Generate a first pass, then refine: 'Keep the composition but make the sky more dramatic' or 'Same scene but in a Studio Ghibli watercolor style.'
Before & After
"A cat sitting on a chair."
"A dignified tabby cat perched on a worn leather wingback chair in a dimly-lit Victorian study. Warm candlelight from the left casts long shadows. Shot on medium format film, shallow depth of field, rich earth tones. Style: Dutch Golden Age still life painting meets modern photography. No text, no watermarks."
