Consistent Styles for Storytelling in Midjourney

I discovered some really fascinating workflows that I can now implement in a lot of the advisory work that I do for my clients.

But one thing really stood out for me and surprisingly enough, barely anyone has talked about this.

Yes, it's fairly obvious that High Variation Mode (aka "Vary Strong") has given us a tremendous amount of flexibility in creating variations of our scenes.

But I've also come to realize that it's an incredibly powerful tool for maintaining stylistic consistency if you're working on a bigger storyline.

You can now create stylistic image templates that then serve as source material for endless derivatives of pretty much anything you need.

So let's say you're creating multiple shots that all take place at the same point in time and location in a story.

Using High Variation Mode you can create each one of those shots, embed different characters in them, and still keep the visual style consistent.

This is huge for anyone who's working on books, comics, or storyboards, and I'm super excited to be able to share this with you today.
