AI Image Generation Tips - Get Better Results

1. Write Better Prompts

The prompt is the single biggest factor in your output quality. Vague prompts produce generic results. Specific, structured prompts produce images that match your vision. Here is a framework that works consistently:

Notice how each element adds specificity. The subject is not just "a woman" but "a woman reading a book." The setting is not just "indoors" but "a cozy coffee shop." This level of detail gives the AI clear direction and dramatically improves results.

2. Use Style Keywords Effectively

Style keywords tell the AI what aesthetic to target. Here are the most reliable categories:

• Photography styles: cinematic, editorial, street photography, macro, portrait, product photography, fashion editorial
• Art styles: oil painting, watercolor, digital art, concept art, anime, comic book, pencil sketch
• Lighting: golden hour, studio lighting, neon, dramatic shadows, soft diffused light, backlit, rim lighting
• Mood: moody, vibrant, minimalist, ethereal, gritty, dreamy, nostalgic

In AI Photo and Video Generator, you can combine these with the built-in style presets for even more precise control. The app's 100+ styles serve as excellent starting points that you can further customize with prompt keywords.

3. Avoid Common Prompt Mistakes

These mistakes consistently produce worse results:

• Being too vague: "A nice landscape" gives the AI almost nothing to work with. Add specifics about the terrain, time of day, weather, and season.
• Contradictory instructions: "A bright, dark, colorful photo" confuses the model. Pick a consistent mood and lighting direction.
• Overloading with keywords: Cramming 50 descriptors into one prompt usually produces muddy results. Focus on the 5-8 most important elements.
• Negative framing: "No blur, no noise, not dark" is less effective than stating what you want positively: "sharp focus, clean, well-lit."

4. Iterate and Refine

Rarely does the first generation nail exactly what you want. The best results come from iteration:

1. Generate an initial image with your base prompt.
2. Identify what you like and what is off.
3. Adjust your prompt to emphasize what worked and redirect what did not.
4. Generate again. Repeat until satisfied.

This iterative approach is faster and more effective than trying to write the perfect prompt on the first attempt.

5. Post-Generation Enhancement

AI generation is just the first step. Use enhancement tools to polish your results:

• Upscale to increase resolution for printing or large displays.
• Color correct to fine-tune the palette to your exact preference.
• Remove backgrounds to isolate subjects for compositing or product use.
• Face enhance to sharpen portrait details if faces are the focal point.

With AI Photo and Video Generator, all of these post-generation tools are available in the same app, so you can go from prompt to polished final image without switching between tools.
