-: In this lesson, we're gonna be looking
at this amazing resource for DALL-E 2 from pitch.com
so let's jump right into it.
Here we can see the DALL-E 2 prompt book,
and this is pretty extensive.
We're not gonna go through the whole thing together,
but I'm gonna show you
what kind of information you are going to see here.
So really what this is good for
is finding the right modifiers
and terms to input in your prompts
so that you can get exactly what you're looking for
or maybe find some inspiration for something
that you didn't know that you wanted.
So here are some amazing works
that have been created by DALL-E,
and this has a lot of charm in this pitch book
and we're gonna just be going through
some of the solid examples
which really I suggest reading
everything that I'm skipping over here.
Talks about prompt design, prompt engineering,
but I'm trying to get to some prompt modifiers specifically.
So here you can see the positive mood, low energy,
negative mood, low energy.
You can see the different modifiers it's using
and the outputs that it will give.
You can see big and free, big and structured,
small and structured, small and free.
Here, it goes into some specific styles.
You can see at the bottom here,
this is what gothic slash fantasy looks like.
This is steampunk, this is biopunk,
and these are just names of different styles.
Now we're gonna jump into photography
and it has a little overview of photography,
but you can see this is what an extreme closeup looks like.
We got a closeup, medium shot, long shot, extreme long shot.
And this is helpful
because maybe in your mind's eye you see a picture
and you're like, I want an extreme closeup
of somebody's mouth.
Well, now you know
that extreme closeup is what that's called.
Low angle and overhead view.
And it's important when you're looking at these,
remember how they make you feel
because at the end of the day, it's still about emotion.
So this overhead view or this low angle,
like they have a different vibe
and just start, you know, don't lose sleep over it,
but start remembering if any of these in particular
give you some kind of emotional response.
Fast shutter speed, slow shutter speed.
They have different vibes.
Motion blur is pretty cool.
Natural and outdoor lighting, blue hour.
This is, you know, right before sunrise
or right after sunset, midday,
golden hour with this pig.
Flash photography, what is this?
Ooh, backlighting backlit.
I mean, this is cool.
This is a really cool photo.
An elf man studio lighting.
Disposable camera, that has a certain nostalgia to it.
Camera obscura, black and white, red scale, bleach bypass.
It's really good to spend some, color splash is cool.
You know, it's really good to spend some time
and try to remember these phrases
because when you're in the heat of the moment,
it's important to know what do you wanna pull from?
Do you want something to be
in the style of the TV show "Starsky and Hutch", 1975?
Maybe you can't remember all the up lighting,
down lighting, whatever.
Maybe you can't remember that,
but you do know that you love how "Blade Runner" looked
and you're like, I want that "Blade Runner" vibe.
That's a perfectly good way to communicate to DALL-E.
Or you want something to have a "Stranger Things" look.
That works great.
So here we have photo genres and usage context,
and here we have portrait photography.
And here we have some famous portrait photographers
if you like any of their styles.
I suggest Googling their work
to see if you like how they look.
Here we're gonna go into different illustration styles
from pencil drawings to ballpoint pen, etching.
Dive into watercolor, pastels, airbrush,
low poly as an illustration style,
layered paper, storybook, digital painting,
blueprint, scientific diagram, isometric 3D.
And this resource just goes on and on
showing you how you can pull from different,
you can pull the Pixar style, the 90's Disney look,
the "Spirited Away" look, vintage Disney, comic book,
"South Park", "Family Guy".
Really, this is here to show you and unlock your creativity
because all of these little inputs
will dramatically change your output.
Here we have Dr. Seuss, art history.
You can go into ancient Egyptian murals,
even Roman mosaics, go into Renaissance,
the Baroque period, impressionist, post-impressionist,
art deco, color field painting, cubism,
futurism, neo-expressionism,
Edward Hopper, Salvador Dali.
If you like a specific painter or artist,
you can have DALL-E create in that style
and you can get even more specific.
We can get into 3D art, a jade sculpture,
ice carving, sand sculpture, and articles of clothing,
or as they say things for the human body.
This backpack, these shoes,
some nail art, places and spaces.
You got everything you can do outdoors, indoors,
stage sets, domestic interiors.
So I suggest you going through
the rest of this prompt book on your own time.
Now I'm going to take some of the prompts
that we've looked at and make something cool
and I suggest that you do the same.
So I'm gonna create a image
with some of the prompts that we just saw.
So we'll try a painting of a flying avocado,
paper craft origami in the style of Salvador Dali.
Okay, so we'll do a flying avocado paper craft origami,
and you can see our flying avocado paper craft origami.
It's pretty silly,
but what I asked for was pretty silly as well.
So now we'll try a marble statue of a cat
in the style of "Stranger Things".
As you can see here,
this has some of the "Stranger Things" colors.
This could maybe be a "Stranger Things",
but I think this one really shows more of the vibe
of what I think of when I think of "Stranger Things".
So that's just to showcase this resource.
It's really full of so many amazing words and modifiers
and phrases to use to help your prompts.
