Exactly. Think of a portrait orientation image: top 25% sky, next 25% head, bottom 50% torso. Will come out way different than top 60% head, bottom 40% chest. Using keywords like “closeup, medium shot, cowboy shot” are less effective for me, but that’s what you see in lots of tutorial posts for controlling composition through prompting alone.
You can even go crazy with the positioning. Portrait photo split vertically, with head in the left column, body in the right column, will make them lean over or arched back, etc.
tonight i’ve noticed that varying a subject’s age, and nothing else, using “xx year old” format, can reliably change a lot of other interesting things. Try it out in a prompt matrix some time. i found 18-24 were more likely to be nude, and when “reading” would have a small pamphlet. 25-29 would get sexy lingerie and paperback book. 30-36 would get underwear and books that appeared to be science books. Obviously this was all situationally dependant, but i found it interesting anyway.
Very cool idea! Maybe that’s better than loras even. I’m already having fun using different dynamic prompts with wildcards to get surreal scenery. Thanks for the info!
Wow, this seems like a cheat code. Thanks! I’m curious. How are you scaling a specific region? Is that just messing with the ratio?
