Midjourney: Text Rendering and Paragraph Generation in V8

Demo summary

The creator demonstrates Midjourney V8's ability to render specific text on a forehead and a full paragraph of handwritten notes compared to V7's gibberish.

Step-by-step

  1. Enter a prompt describing the image subject
  2. Specify the text to be rendered by placing it in quotation marks
  3. Submit the prompt to generate the image
  4. Compare the text rendering between version 7 and version 8

Options

  • Render short text on specific body parts (e.g., 'written on his forehead')
  • Generate full paragraphs of handwritten notes

Watch out for

  • Version 7 often produces gibberish or handwriting that doesn't make sense for long text blocks
  • Text generation in version 8 is not always perfect even though it is improved

Tips

  • Use quotation marks to define the specific text you want the AI to render
  • Test version 8 for more organic-looking text that appears integrated into the image surface

Highlights

it's actually really has stepped up the text generation game and really done a great job at creating something unique that's actually going to work with high intelligence
