============================================ 2026 Multimodal AI Prompts: 50+ Free Templates For Images, Videos & More (DALL-E, Claude, Midjourney, etc.) ============================================ **What is Multimodal AI?** It refers to AI models that can understand and generate content across multiple "modes" like text, images, audio, and video. For creators, this primarily means: • TEXT-TO-IMAGE: Generating images from descriptive text. • TEXT-TO-VIDEO: Creating short video clips from text. • IMAGE-TO-TEXT: Analyzing or captioning an image. • CHAINING: Using the output of one AI tool (e.g., an image) as input for another (e.g., a video script). --- PART 1: UNDERSTANDING PARAMETERS & SETTINGS --- Key parameters to control your output: **For Midjourney, Stable Diffusion etc.:** • `--ar 16:9` : Aspect Ratio (for widescreen, phone wallpaper, square). • `--v 6.5` : Version of the model (newer versions have better understanding). • `--s 250` : Stylize value (lower = more literal, higher = more artistic). • `--style raw`: For Midjourney, reduces default styling for more control. **For Video Generation (Runway, Pika):** • `--motion 5` : Controls intensity of movement (1-10). • `--fps 24` : Frames per second. • `--seed 1234`: Use a consistent seed for reproducible results. **Universal Tips:** • **Be Specific:** Use descriptive adjectives, name art styles, mention lighting. • **Use References:** Many tools allow you to upload an image + text for style. • **Iterate:** Generate, then refine based on what you like/dislike. --- PART 2: CATEGORIZED PROMPT TEMPLATES (50+) --- === A.
