What is Cinematic CGI SREF style

This style captures the high fidelity, smooth surfaces, and detailed lighting inherent in contemporary computer-generated imagery, resembling polished video game cinematics or CGI short films. Images generated in this style feature impeccable material definition, often exhibiting a slightly uncanny or hyper-realistic quality due to perfect shading and depth of field effects. When crafting a prompt for Midjourney, specifying this aesthetic ensures textures are clean and lighting is meticulously controlled. Mastering the 3D Render look in Midjourney allows for the creation of incredibly detailed subjects, from atmospheric landscapes to perfect character portraits with sharp focus or deliberate soft rendering effects.

Cinematic CGI Prompt Ideas

  • A desolate, misty swamp at twilight, rendered in highly detailed 3D, cinematic lighting, volumetric fog
  • Close-up portrait of an ethereal woman with obsidian hair, hyper-detailed 3D render, shallow depth of field, dramatic studio lighting
  • A still life arrangement of shiny citrus fruits and a matte grey vase on a reflective surface, octane render, high quality 3D model
  • A futuristic chrome cathedral interior, massive scale, clean geometric forms, detailed 3D render, cool ambient light

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?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
