What is Cinematic Duo-tone SREF style

This visual aesthetic is defined by its striking, highly saturated complementary color palette, primarily contrasting deep teal/cyan shadows against vivid orange/red highlights, reminiscent of dramatic film grading. It creates an intense, often tropical or mysterious mood, emphasizing strong graphic forms and sharp contrasts in both portraits and still life scenes. When crafting a **Midjourney** **prompt**, specifying this strict color harmony is key to achieving this distinctive look. Mastering this visual **style** allows for highly impactful and cohesive visual narratives, moving beyond simple color palettes into sophisticated mood creation.

  • Close-up portrait of a woman with elaborate 1980s hair, defined by harsh rim lighting in warm orange against a deep cyan background, photorealistic render
  • Intricate still life featuring exotic fruit and polished brass objects bathed in teal and orange volumetric lighting, illustrative quality

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.
