What is Film Legacy SREF style

This style captures the distinct aesthetic of analog film from the mid-to-late 20th century, characterized by noticeable film grain, soft focus areas, and slightly desaturated yet warm color palettes, often emphasizing earthy tones or sepia hues. It merges photorealism with nostalgic imperfection. To replicate this look effectively in **Midjourney**, a user should focus the **prompt** on specific film stocks (like Kodak Portra 400 or expired film effects) to achieve this authentic, evocative texture and mood, making it a highly sought-after **style** for character and landscape generation.

Film Legacy Prompt Ideas

  • Close-up portrait of an astronaut exploring a desert planet, 1978 film still, heavy grain, muted color grading
  • Vast panoramic landscape of rolling hills under an overcast sky, captured on expired slide film, subtle lens flare, vintage photography
  • Rustic still life composition of old brass instruments on a wooden table, dramatic sidelight, high contrast, 1960s documentary photography style
  • A lone figure walking down a rainy neon-lit street in Tokyo, shot on 35mm film, deep shadows, cinematic realism, vintage photography

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.
