Course Overview

What this course is designed to develop

This course is a practical, Midjourney-specific workflow for designers. You will write structured prompts, control results with --stylize, --chaos, --ar, --sref, --cref, and multi-prompt weighting, lock consistency across a set, refine with Vary Region and Pan, and assemble the output into client-ready presentations with honest licensing language. You leave able to brief, generate, refine, and present Midjourney work to a professional standard.

Learning Outcomes

What the learner should be able to understand, build, or execute.

Write structured prompts using subject, medium, style, lighting, and composition that produce predictable results

Control output with core parameters including --ar, --stylize, --chaos, --weird, and --no

Direct content and look with image prompts, style references using --sref, and character references using --cref

Hold a consistent style across a multi-image set using locked references, seeds, and prompt templates

Refine and finish images with Vary Region, Pan, Zoom Out, and upscaling, then present them to clients with clear licensing notes
