+  "text": "All right, just to take this idea home, what I want to do is I want to combine a number of different things that we've talked about. So we did some SRF exploration. And what I want to do is I want to combine the idea of using the prefer option set. We'll create a new option that is specific to this SRF. And then we'll explore old prompts using that new option. So let's take a look and see what I mean. So what I want to do is I'm going to create a new option that's specific around the pencil sketch, old yellowed paper, and then the S-Ref here, and then the stylized. So let's go ahead and set all of this up. So I'm going to use this prompt, and we're just going to tweak it here. We're going to get rid of the turkey sandwich, and we're going to get rid of the AR3x4. We'll leave everything else intact. So I'm going to go ahead and copy this entire prompt, and we're going to go over to Discord. And what I'm going to do is I'm going to do a Prefer Option List, because I have a couple of different sketch. So I think this is going to end up being sketch three. Yep, we'll do sketch three. So we're going to create a new command. We'll say prefer option set. I'll call this sketch three hit tab. We'll click on value. And I'm going to paste in what I copied from the website. So here I have pencil sketch, old yellow paper, the new as rough stylized 250 in the version 6.1. So now every time I use sketch three, we're going to basically have this inserted into the prompt. And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to back the website because that command is now available to me. We're going to go back through our old set of images here. We'll go to all images, scroll to the top. And I'm actually just going to start cranking this option into a lot of the images I've already created. So I'm gonna refresh here. I'm gonna scroll down. Start off with the dunes. We'll use this prompt and we'll go ahead and do sketch three. So really what we're gonna do is just grab a lot of these old prompts and rerun them using the new sketch command. We're gonna dump photograph because we don't want a photograph. That gets confusing. Enter. And I got an error on the aspect ratio. Let's go ahead and delete that for just a second. Enter. Let's grab this one here. This is the man shrouded. Oops, use the image by accident. We use the prompt. Sketch three. We'll dump the realism keyword. We'll dump the monochromatic. Yeah, let's grab a couple more here. Let's do the no-ling of bread. We'll dump out studio lighting. We'll dump in our sketch three. Keep doing out. And I love doing this. I love finding a prompt and then back through old photos let these wrap up. All right, we got our results back. Like I said, I've been using Mid Journey for years now and I'm still blown away by how great these results are. So we're using the SRF 819. We tried a number of subjects we've already explored, things like the beach, our ornate octopus ring. And just taking a look through the results, missed on some of the things like the bear badge, but that's okay. Overall, oops, that's one's a really cool demand shrouded. The dunes and the bluffs. So once again, we're just using the S-Ref to really explore a style. And this would definitely be a great go-to for if I just want to create a sketch theme project. And this would also be something I could totally just use as reference for my own sketching. Bright as oddly one of the things I have to draw a lot of. The octopus came out really cool. And that's just once again, I'm gonna go back to what's mind blowing about S-Ref is that's just one theme and we can continue to explore and harvest. So let's go ahead and maybe do this again. We'll take the Octopus ring and let's explore some styles using the Octopus ring. So we're gonna get rid of pencil sketch and old yellowed paper. We'll change out the S-Ref to random and then we're gonna go ahead and hit that with a repeat. And we'll repeat 10. And we'll just check out some new SRFs. Let enter. And speed up the video to take a look at the results. All right, we got our results back. And I feel like right now I'm not even in teaching mode. This is kind of the main loop of how I use mid-journey. So probably slipped into a little bit more of my regular usage loop rather than just teaching. But once again, just want to show you how I'm using mid-journey and just help you understand the power in this. So we got our results back in SREF harvesting for octopus rings and once again some very different results in the initial base version of mid-journey. So kind of like almost like a cool clay style here. I'd actually try something like take this SREF this 7291 and then also just say clay model of an octopus would be a good way to explore this. This is a cool combination of real life and sketching. That's pretty neat. Oh, this is a cool marbled look. Another great illustrated style. Very cool stone style. That one's really neat. And once again, I feel like you could just do this endlessly. And this is exactly what I do is I will just sit on mid-journey and SREF harvest and try ideas and explore and just like pull together entire themes, themes of objects that would work in a world. All right, just one more idea. I'm gonna use one of my favorite SREFs. I'm gonna go and use this prompt and then we're gonna go over to organize and I have folders set up and we'll talk about this a little bit later on in the course. I'm gonna go to this 605. I'm working on an amusement themed project. So we'll just grab one of these and I'm gonna go and click on just the SREF part of this prompt. And what you're going to see here is that it actually took the original SREF, this 040, and then added this 125, this last 601 here. We're going to delete the original SREF. And then the other thing it did too is it did something called the waiting parameter. We haven't done that quite yet, we will. But we're going to delete that off, that colon, colon, one. And this is one of my favorite styles, this 1254430605. So you're welcome to use it. And that's what's great about S-Refs too, is that we can share S-Refs with each other. And so feel free to use the 605 ones. This is one of my favorite ones. So this is just an idea of how we can use S-Refs and we find one that we like. We can use it over and over again, save them, share them. So we'll speed this up and take a look and wrap up this video. All right, we got our results back, not what I expected. And I just realized the mistake I made. And I'm going to reuse this prompt and I actually did this in Neji mode. And so there's S refs for Neji as well too. So we'll say Neji and hit enter. And that's how 605 works the best. All right, got our results back. Yeah, I just love this like sketchy like cartoony style. Okay, that wraps up our exploration of S refs. I'll see you in the next video.",
