MidJourney Prompts For Ultra-Realistic Images

In this video, we explore how MidJourney can create ultra-realistic images. Inspired by a Reddit thread, I go down the rabbit-hole of trying to figure out how to make the most realistic images possible.

*Here is the prompt from the video if anyone wants to try it or a variation of it:*
portrait of an Indian village woman in forest in Himachal Pradesh, clear facial features, cinematic, 35mm lens, f/1.8, accent lighting, global illumination, (add uplight and v4 or v5 yourself because here it turns into an emdash -- )

Please do more people realism stuff like this. I was never a fan on the RGB fantasy land graphics but this really piques my interest!

Matt- I really respect your crediting the sources.

Hi Matt! Glad i could give a bit of inspiration with adding the polaroid! Big fan! Next time try out some 'fujifilm fujicolor' instead of polaroid to really get some old school film images!

Sometimes something is so incredible you can only shake your head and/or curse in response. Like how can a tool like this that can generate these types of results actually exist? This was one of those times. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing tutorial. Matt really adds value to the AI world. This is the end of the crazy MidJourney prompting industry as we just need to be smart in using photography terminology (aperture, shutter speed, depth of field, exposure, ISO, white balance, focal length, bokeh, filters, histogram, RAW, composition, exposure compensation, focus, megapixels, bracketing, flash, lens, metering, image stabilization). So, human intelligence comes from understanding these terms. AI will do the rest. This list was generated with ChatGPT and reviewed by an experienced photographer.

You’re still in the top 5 AI and AI image generation gurus on Planet YouTube. Keep ‘em coming, Matty.👏🌟👍

Great video brother! I'm trying to upgrade my Midjourney game and this was really helpful ❤

Hi Matt, I just subscribed to your channel and website after watching your last video. Please keep up the excellent work.

Thank you for your examples! I loved the explanations of those prompts, they are great!

[vrsantafe]

Thank you for the great videos. I've watched allot of videos from people covering AI stuff but you are the only one I subscribe to. Great job!

Matt, it would be interesting to see how these prompts work with stable-diffusion-webui with v1-14 and v1-5. Hoping to see a comparison soon!

I have noted giving the film type has yielded some amazing results. I love the Kodak Tri-X, and Agfa films. I’m going to start delving into the technicolor and other cinematic films.

These prompts have taken my "creations" to the next level, outstanding, and thank you Matt! <3

Good find Matt. I only used MJ for fantasy collage, landscapes and portraits. This is a good find.

Fantastic, Sir. More super prompts expected ahead. From India. Thanks for very nice and interesting. Video.

Far out, this is insane. Thanks for sharing!

This video is exactly like i was looking for! I'm glad I didn't search few days ago :D

Thanks for interesting tips. I have been also playing with midjourney lately. You definitely can find some edges where it still struggles to provide that mindblowing result. Like "from above" where it surely doesn't have enough resources because people usually don't shoot from above right :) ... Also when recreating portrait from uploaded picture is still not there yet. But i am excited to see what progress the future brings.
