-: Midjourney has a lot of new features
when it comes to changing the settings.
So this lesson is gonna be about
exploring the different setting functionalities
and how to use it for creating better outputs.
So let's hop in.
So for creating a normal prompt on Midjourney,
we always type in slash imagine.
Now for changing our settings,
what we do is we type in slash settings.
So I'm gonna do that now.
So here is our settings panel
with different buttons we can click through
similar to our U1 V1 and remix options.
Now what I wanna focus on first is the remix function.
So I'm gonna turn this off, okay?
I'm gonna dismiss this to let the setting panel go away,
and I'm gonna scroll up to our favorite outputted car.
Okay, I'm gonna click very region,
and what this is gonna allow me to do
is highlight a certain part of the image.
So we're gonna highlight the front grill.
I'm gonna hit submit.
And then Midjourney is gonna go to work,
only remixing that part of the image.
Now I'm gonna open up the settings panel again,
and I'm gonna turn remix mode on.
What this is gonna allow us to do is when we vary our image,
whether it's by clicking the vary by region
or by clicking the remix button,
it's gonna allow for us to put in a new prompt,
which is really interesting.
So we have the same part of our image highlighted,
but I'm gonna put in a new prompt
and I want Midjourney to put a fighter jet engine
at the grill versus basically deciding to do
whatever it wants to do.
So if we look what it outputted
with the very by region without a prompt,
we only have subtle changes just to the grill
and to the headlights.
Different colors, slightly different shape,
different model, nothing crazy.
But if we look at the fighter jet engine,
Midjourney did a pretty interesting job
of incorporating a brand new design
just into this specific part of the image.
This is a relatively new function
that opens up tons of possibility.
Now what I wanna do is use the same remixing function,
but to create something a little bit more realistic
versus this more cartoonish style.
So let's go to our settings panel one more time,
and I'm gonna make sure that remix is checked
because again, when remix mode is turned on,
I can create a brand new prompt
from what was previously created.
So let's go to our initial output
of just using the word car,
and let's put something a lot more specific into this remix.
I'm gonna use the prompt,
a classic 80 sports car, photo realistic,
restaurant diner in the background with the sunset
and let's say highly detailed.
And hit submit and let's see what we get.
So let's scroll down and see what we created.
Wow, and just like that we completely changed
the look and feel of our photo
going to something that an actual photographer
could potentially shoot in a real life situation,
going from that more cartoon fantasy style
to something a lot more usable to use as reference images
or just to really create something from scratch.
In the next lesson, we're gonna dive into
even more of the different settings
and functionality of Midjourney.
