General Prompting with Virtiq

1. Start with Clear Descriptions
When working with Virtiq, begin with simple, clear descriptions. Adding adjectives helps Virtiq understand the mood or style you want. Instead of “a city,” try “a bustling, neon-lit cityscape at dusk.” This added detail helps Virtiq interpret your vision accurately.

2. Keep it Focused and Essential
Virtiq responds best to concise prompts that focus on main elements: subject, style, and setting. For example, “An elderly man in plain white dishdasha , in soft lighting against a sunset” is more effective than a long, detailed sentence. A balanced prompt helps Virtiq achieve clarity in each part of the scene.

3. Organize with Commas
Using comma-separated keywords, like “mountain landscape, sunrise, fog, calm atmosphere,” guides Virtiq to combine elements clearly. This keeps your prompt easy for the model to understand and interpret.

4. Experiment with Prompt Length
Virtiq works well with both short and detailed prompts. Start with basic details and add specifics as needed. For instance, “A rainy street at night” can be refined to “A dimly lit rainy street with neon signs and people carrying umbrellas.” Gradually building detail often results in more precise images.

5. Blend Styles and Themes
Virtiq can mix various themes and styles effectively. For a unique image, try combining different themes, such as “A medieval castle in a futuristic Arabian city.” Mixing ideas allows for creative outputs that still look cohesive.

6. Add Technical Details
Including specific technical elements like “soft, natural lighting” or “close-up angle” can help Virtiq produce high-quality, realistic images. These elements influence the lighting, perspective, and overall quality, guiding the model to follow your visual intent more closely.

7. Adding Text to Your Image

Suppose you want to add text to an image, like a woman wearing a red hoodie with a slogan promoting your burger business. To get the best results, describe the font style and place the text in quotation marks. Your prompt might look like this:

"A 25-year-old tanned woman wearing a red hoodie with bold white text saying 'BEST BURGERS IN TOWN,' standing on the street at night with city lights in the background."

Human Prompting Techniques with Virtiq

1. Use Cultural and Contextual Details
For culturally specific images (like Middle Eastern or localised models), include relevant details. This can mean specifying attire, setting, or even environmental cues, such as “A Middle Eastern marketplace at sunset with local vendors.” Such context helps Virtiq create culturally accurate images. Another example is “A man wearing a dishdasha” vs a more detailed approach “A man wearing a plain white dishdasha” the latter would usually return more accurate results.

2. Iterate and Adjust
Virtiq is highly flexible, so start with general prompts and refine based on results. If a prompt is too vague, adding small adjustments, like a color or lighting change, can significantly affect the output.

3. Layer Prompts for Complex Scenes
For scenes with multiple elements, try layering prompts for each part: background, midground, and foreground. Example: “A busy Middle Eastern market (background), a street vendor selling spices (foreground), and a clear blue sky.” This layering helps Virtiq to structure scenes more effectively.

4. Use Emotional and Mood Words
Virtiq can incorporate emotions in visual outputs, so use words like “nostalgic,” “peaceful,” or “dramatic” to convey mood. For instance, “A cozy living room with warm, soft lighting on a rainy evening” gives Virtiq cues for creating the desired atmosphere.

5. Simplify When Needed
Avoid overloading Virtiq with too much detail in one prompt. When results are inconsistent, try splitting prompts into smaller parts. Virtiq often fills in subtle details naturally, allowing for simpler, more efficient prompts, especially for human realisim, you would want to keep the focus on the character.
