00:00.840 --> 00:03.056
Okay, let's learn how to use negative prompting.

00:03.056 --> 00:05.400
So this is a feature of Midjourney.

00:05.400 --> 00:07.770
Also Stable Fusion has this.

00:07.770 --> 00:11.280
And what you can do is you can take an element

00:11.280 --> 00:12.210
that you don't like

00:12.210 --> 00:14.040
of the image that kinda keeps coming up

00:14.040 --> 00:17.970
and then just adapt it with the negative prompt

00:17.970 --> 00:19.260
so that you can kind

00:19.260 --> 00:21.420
kind of like guide the AI away

00:21.420 --> 00:23.190
from the thing that you don't want.

00:23.190 --> 00:24.570
Here's an example of something

00:24.570 --> 00:25.410
that happens all the time.

00:25.410 --> 00:28.560
So I've put like trendy, modern painting

00:28.560 --> 00:31.170
and it's showing the painting on a wall.

00:31.170 --> 00:32.970
It doesn't do that for all types of painting,

00:32.970 --> 00:35.460
but sometimes it does show up like this

00:35.460 --> 00:37.890
and you maybe want to get rid of that.

00:37.890 --> 00:39.000
You don't want it on a wall.

00:39.000 --> 00:40.680
So I'm gonna show you how to get rid of that.

00:40.680 --> 00:42.930
Also, this one's like fashion shoot.

00:42.930 --> 00:45.409
You can see it's all face on to the camera

00:45.409 --> 00:48.030
because that's how fashion shoots usually look

00:48.030 --> 00:49.393
and that's what the AI has learned.

00:49.393 --> 00:51.930
But we don't want a fashion shoot like this.

00:51.930 --> 00:54.300
We, we don't want the face kind of

00:54.300 --> 00:56.580
being the main feature of the portrait.

00:56.580 --> 00:58.689
And then here's like Peppa Pig, it's a cartoon.

00:58.689 --> 01:01.110
And if we wanted to kind of be a little bit creative

01:01.110 --> 01:03.810
and mess around with that, we can say like,

01:03.810 --> 01:05.760
let's actually get rid of the cartoon element

01:05.760 --> 01:08.790
and see what a realistic Peppa Pig would look like.

01:08.790 --> 01:11.656
Cool. So let me just try

01:11.656 --> 01:13.320
I'll show you this one first.

01:13.320 --> 01:16.320
So I just added dash, dash, no

01:16.320 --> 01:17.907
and then cartoon.

01:17.907 --> 01:19.950
And so anything after the dash dash no

01:19.950 --> 01:21.930
shows up as a negative prompt.

01:21.930 --> 01:23.850
Everything in front is the positive prompt

01:23.850 --> 01:25.440
that we used before.

01:25.440 --> 01:26.850
And you can see here that we

01:26.850 --> 01:28.380
actually have this pretty cool image

01:28.380 --> 01:31.140
over here, like a fluffy Peppa Pig

01:31.140 --> 01:33.720
and it's a bit more a realistic looking

01:33.720 --> 01:35.460
less like a cartoon.

01:35.460 --> 01:37.260
So that's really promising

01:37.260 --> 01:38.730
and you can kind of use that

01:38.730 --> 01:40.758
and then build more variations of

01:40.758 --> 01:42.990
you know, Version Four if you want to

01:42.990 --> 01:45.480
And that can be quite powerful.

01:45.480 --> 01:47.160
A really creative way

01:47.160 --> 01:47.993
you know

01:47.993 --> 01:50.400
take something that is known for a specific aspect

01:50.400 --> 01:52.440
and then negate that aspect.

01:52.440 --> 01:53.273
Cool.

01:53.273 --> 01:54.150
This is the fashion shoot.

01:54.150 --> 01:55.770
This is what's come back.

01:55.770 --> 01:58.320
So here we've added no face

01:58.320 --> 02:00.360
looking at the camera and portrait.

02:00.360 --> 02:01.193
So again

02:01.193 --> 02:03.600
anything after dash dash no

02:03.600 --> 02:04.500
is negative prompt

02:04.500 --> 02:06.510
and you can separate these by commas

02:06.510 --> 02:09.780
just like you can in the positive prompt as well.

02:09.780 --> 02:12.723
And if you look, they're all like, you know,

02:12.723 --> 02:15.900
barely seeing any faces, it's zoomed out, they're not kind

02:15.900 --> 02:18.300
of looking at the camera in these cases.

02:18.300 --> 02:20.760
So we're getting some really visually appealing stuff

02:20.760 --> 02:22.534
compared to, you know, the

02:22.534 --> 02:25.470
the fashion shoot stuff that we had here.

02:25.470 --> 02:27.750
All right. And then, you know, this is what we had

02:27.750 --> 02:29.700
for the trendy painting

02:29.700 --> 02:32.580
and this is what it looks like with negative prompts.

02:32.580 --> 02:35.550
So here we've said no frame,

02:35.550 --> 02:38.070
no walls, no furniture, right?

02:38.070 --> 02:39.510
And again, we don't have to keep adding no

02:39.510 --> 02:42.750
we just put everything after the dash dash no.

02:42.750 --> 02:43.583
And look at this

02:43.583 --> 02:44.416
really cool stuff.

02:44.416 --> 02:46.286
It's actually just showing the painting itself

02:46.286 --> 02:47.250
um you know,

02:47.250 --> 02:48.990
it's not, you know,

02:48.990 --> 02:50.040
it's not showing the walls

02:50.040 --> 02:52.140
or the, you know, the furniture of the office

02:52.140 --> 02:54.570
or whatever, wherever it's supposed to be hanging.

02:54.570 --> 02:57.210
Cool. And you can see there's, you know,

02:57.210 --> 02:58.270
different variations of uh

02:58.270 --> 02:59.760
Peppa Pig here.

02:59.760 --> 03:02.294
Cool. Alright, so that's how you use negative prompting.

03:02.294 --> 03:04.110
You know, it's really flexible.

03:04.110 --> 03:05.610
I would say experiment with this

03:05.610 --> 03:07.602
combined with putting things on the positive side

03:07.602 --> 03:08.730
that you do wanna see

03:08.730 --> 03:09.563
and you know

03:09.563 --> 03:10.740
kind of figure out

03:10.740 --> 03:11.923
where you get to.

03:11.923 --> 03:13.350
You know, it's just kind of

03:13.350 --> 03:15.483
one more tool in your arsenal.
