What is Cinematic Cel-Render SREF style

This **style** embodies high-quality, contemporary digital illustration, often resembling cinematic 2D animation or detailed graphic novel artwork. It is characterized by clean, defined outlines, sophisticated block shading (cel-shading), and rich, atmospheric color palettes that give depth to both characters and environments. To successfully generate this aesthetic in **Midjourney**, a specific **prompt** must emphasize sharp rendering quality and dramatic lighting to achieve the polished, immersive look evident in this composition.

Cinematic Cel-Render Prompt Ideas

  • A majestic, ancient floating city rendered in crisp lines and atmospheric perspective, cinematic 2D animation style
  • Close-up portrait of a rogue archaeologist discovering a glowing artifact in a dark ruin, highly detailed illustration, dramatic rim lighting
  • A vibrant still life of exotic fruits and antique brass instruments on a rough wooden table, strong contrast, illustration
  • An epic fantasy scene of knights preparing for battle on a misty cliffside, deep blues and muted earth tones, graphic novel aesthetic

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?
