Master lighting and time of day in Midjourney prompts to shape mood, color palette, and genre with keywords like golden hour, blue hour, and dramatic lighting.

Learn to control camera angle and perspective in Midjourney prompts to add drama, emotion, and clarity with front view, medium shot, cinematic lighting, and shallow depth of field.

Master Midjourney parameters to control how prompts are generated, adjusting aspect ratio, quality, style, and version with double dash commands.

Explore creation actions in Midjourney, including vary, upscale, return, edit, and use image, style, or prompt to refine, reuse, or recreate images with new prompts and styles.

Explore Moodboard, a new Midjourney feature that lets you assemble reference images to define mood, style, and atmosphere. Combine uploads, links, and gallery images to blend visuals into consistent designs.

Learn to use your moodboard as a prompt, adding a unique --P code that applies color, texture, and atmosphere to new images and keeps results aligned.

Learn how to combine moodboards with time-based prompts to guide Midjourney toward a modern two-story villa with textures from your moodboard and photographic realism.

Integrate your mood board with an uploaded reference image to guide Midjourney toward photo-real villa visuals, emphasizing rear garden view and outdoor living with preserved materials.

Learn to edit prompts in Midjourney, apply moodboards with seed and chaos parameters, and refine prompts across time of day and image prompts for consistent, creative architectural visuals.

Learn how to create animated videos in Midjourney with camera pan, lighting shifts, and cinematic, photorealistic renders in 16:9, five-second clips, and credit costs.

Generate longer videos by creating clips with varying angles and lighting, then stitch clips from 10°, 20°, and 30° angles with morning, afternoon, and sunset light.

Save animations by choosing from three download options: social media optimized for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts; download raw video for high quality editing; or download as GIF for quick previews.

Edit your Midjourney clips into a longer animation by lining them up, adding transitions, text, and music with CapCut, a free editor for mobile or desktop.

Explore CapCut's four-section workspace—the media panel for importing and organizing video, images, and audio; the player for preview; the detail panel for adjustments; and the timeline for editing.

Import your animations into CapCut, drag clips onto the timeline, add transitions, adjust durations, slow down a clip, export, and publish directly to TikTok or YouTube.
