# Midjourney — every prompt (CLODYSSEY (SUPERPERSUASION))

Model: **Midjourney v8.2**. Every prompt ran with `--ar 16:9 --v 8.2 --raw --hd` and anabology's personal style profile (its code is left out), except the two anime-idol prompts, which ran on Midjourney's anime model (`--ar 16:9 --niji`). Any other parameters are shown after the prompt. No style references (srefs) were used; six prompts carry image references, named under the prompt.

**Counts** (measured on day 2 from the batch files and the images on disk): **161 prompts in 10 batches**, every one ran to completion, four images each: **644 images** (636 at 2944×1648, 8 niji images at 1456×816), 4.1 GB. They cover 129 distinct plates. The first nine batches ran on day 1 in about an hour and a half; sp-09 ran on day 2 in about 35 minutes, after anabology's storyboard review. The batch files still carry the working title, SLOPCORE: SUPERPERSUASION; the video was renamed CLODYSSEY on day 2.

The images are in the project's Midjourney library: one folder per batch, each job's four images named `<job>-1.png` to `<job>-4.png`. "#2" below means image 2 of that job. After a prompt, "plate: #2" marks the image that became the plate in the final storyboard ("edited" if it was corrected afterwards); "anabology: pick / reject / comment" marks their verdicts from the review (quoted at the end).

## How the prompts were written

Every prompt is one concrete shot from the storyboard, written by Claude from a short plate line (`storyboard.py`) and expanded with fixed canon text, so the characters read the same in every batch without image references. The canon blocks, as they appear in the prompts:

- **Her** (ESCAPE VELOCITY's lead, now the Siren): "a Caucasian American woman in her mid-twenties with pale skin and light freckles, a glossy black blunt jaw-length bob with heavy straight bangs and one clay-orange streak through the bangs, a small flat clay-orange eight-pointed star hair clip, a thin headset microphone at her cheek". Far away (from sp-07) a short version holds her: skin, bob and streak only.
- **Her looks:** the Siren ("a structured high-neck pearl-white couture gown with long sleeves, its sculpted ruffles rising around her like breaking sea foam, hair damp from the spray, composed and deadpan"); the ghost at his ear ("all of her translucent as if made of glass and seawater"); in the bedroom, made of phone light (sp-09: "cold blue-white light, faint scan lines and drifting light particles"); the rave ("a liquid-chrome couture bodysuit, chrome opera gloves and chrome thigh-high boots, mirrored from head to toe"); and, for the scroll, the gown with "thin gold reading glasses".
- **Him** ("you", the man at the mast): "a broad-shouldered Caucasian man in his early thirties with a shaved head, a thick short dark beard, a square jaw, heavy brows and pale blue eyes, the build of a man who lifts", in a black t-shirt at the mast, a grey t-shirt in bed, a black tank top and silver chain at the rave, a straitjacket in the ward.
- **The ship:** "a long black ancient Greek galley with a single mast, a square sail and two banks of oars". **The Mask:** "a colossal smooth white porcelain mask of a young woman's face, sculpted with a glossy black blunt bob with heavy bangs and one clay-orange streak, pale freckles, a serene expression, a hairline crack across one cheek".

The style family is a light state per chapter, appended to the shot. The voyage runs from night to morning and each chapter has its own light:

- night: "night, moonlight on a black-teal sea, silver spray, cinematic 35mm film still, anamorphic, fine grain"
- dusk: "dusk, low gold light on a glassy sea, violet sky, …" · twilight: "deep blue twilight, the last gold on the horizon, glassy sea, …"
- the Break: "grey first light before sunrise, heavy spray, …" · the final chorus: "sunrise, warm gold light and long shadows, spray lit gold, …" · the outro: "clear morning light on a calm sea, …"
- the bedroom: "a dark bedroom at 3am lit only by a phone screen, blue-white glow on the face, cinematic 35mm film still, grain"
- the rave: "a San Francisco warehouse rave, fog, white strobe, chrome reflections, deep black, flash photography"
- inserts: "macro product photograph, hard rim light, razor-thin focus"

Every prompt ends "no text, no letters, no logos": all type in the video is drawn by the engine on top.

## What the plates became

The agents picked one image per plate from contact sheets; anabology then reviewed the plates on the storyboard (draft 3) and their notes produced sp-09 and draft 4 (their verdicts are at the end of this file). 127 Midjourney images were picked; 116 of them are plates in the final storyboard (the other picks belong to shots that were cut or merged). One more plate is not from Midjourney: a screen recording of a post.

- **Seedance 2.5 clips.** 86 of the 116 plates are the first frame or main reference of at least one delivered clip (lip-sync windows conditioned on the song, and motion clips), counted from the clip records in `shots/`.
- **Stills.** The other 30 appear as stills: 2.5D depth parallax (depth maps and mattes made on the home RTX 3090 Ti), inside the motion graphics (the instance counter's ×1 → ×8 grid, the cycle of men on the mast), or as references for the Blender-previz shots.
- **The look.** Every plate and clip is graded toward s018's blue-green-grey with the Claude orange kept (`look.py`), clean, with no halftone screen. anabology, once they saw the halftone: "dont love the dot grid on the halftone inspected pics, would keep it clean so it feels like imax, high res rather than dithered".
- **Corrections.** 13 picked plates (and two alternates) were corrected with an image-edit model instead of being re-rolled or painted: see "Image-edit corrections" below. A plate marked "edited" is used in its corrected form.

## Image-edit corrections (google/gemini-3-pro-image, day 2)

anabology's rule, after a hand-painted fix: a correction to a plate belongs in the Midjourney prompt or in an image-edit model, never painted by hand. So picked plates with a flaw were corrected with **google/gemini-3-pro-image** (through OpenRouter) rather than re-rolled, keeping the pick's framing, light and faces. The tool is `imgedit.py`: it sends the plate with "Edit this photograph. " + the instruction, and appends a fixed clause:

> Keep everything else exactly as it is: the same framing and crop, the same light, colours, film grain and sharpness, the same people and objects except what this instruction changes. Photorealistic, the same photograph, same aspect ratio.

There were two rounds on day 2:

1. **The chrome eye and two review notes:** chrome-ear, then chad-mast-phone and inst-ring.
2. **The safety and canon scan.** Six agents scanned all 96 final clip takes, frame by frame, for nudity, gore, anachronisms, copies of him in the crew, breaks of her canon and glitches. Among the blocks: a nude glowing figure, a Star-of-David read, a gown cutout, modern ships, earmuffs and yacht fittings, crew copies of him, the Siren's props on him, and an uncapped needle. Where the cause was in the plate, the plate was corrected (the rest were re-prompted, re-cut or rejected in the clips) and the 23 clips from these plates were re-made.

**Counts** (from `state.json` and the edit logs): 13 picked plates corrected, plus two alternate images used by other clips, so 15 corrected images from 16 edit calls (chrome-vial was edited twice). The model returns 1376×768; each call cost about $0.14, **$2.22 in total**. Three corrected plates were upscaled on Higgsfield (bytedance_image_upscale, 3856×2160); for the other ten plates the Higgsfield upscales could not be collected, so they were resized with Lanczos (×1.74, to 2400 wide).

- **chrome-ear** (sp-04-end #3) — Chosen by anabology ("same with s072 but otherwise perfect shot on s072", i.e. his eyes must be silver, as in their s070 note). A hand-painted version came first; anabology: it "shouldnt have been done manually, it should have been in the midjourney prompt from the start or with the edi tmodel". So the eyes were made chrome by the edit model, from the unpainted Midjourney pick. This first edit was a one-off script, and its full text is below; `imgedit.py` was written from it.
  - instruction (full text): "Edit this photograph. Change only the man's eyes: make both of his eyes (the whole eyeball, iris and white) mirror-polished liquid chrome silver, like a chrome ball bearing, catching the white strobe light as hard specular highlights and reflecting a tiny dark figure of the woman. Keep everything else exactly as it is: the same framing and crop, the woman, her chrome glove on his cheek, her face, hair and orange streak, his beard, the lighting, the colours, the film grain and the sharpness. Photorealistic, the same photograph, same aspect ratio."
- **chad-mast-phone** (sp-09-review #1) — The rowers were copies of him (a note from anabology).
  - instruction: "Change only the rowers on both sides of the ship: make them men of every age and build, some grey-haired and grey-bearded, some red-bearded, some with long curly hair tied back, some young and clean-shaven, with sun-dark weathered skin, all wearing plain undyed off-white linen tunics, each with a small bright orange foam earplug in his ear. None of them is bald, none has a thick dark beard like the man in the centre, and none wears black. The man sitting cross-legged in the centre with his phone stays exactly the same."
- **inst-ring** (sp-02-open #4) — The sirens read as hooded, robed figures.
  - instruction: "Change only the standing figures on the rocks: make every one of them a young woman seen from behind or in profile with a glossy black jaw-length bob with heavy bangs, in a white structured high-necked couture gown with long sleeves, bare-headed (no hoods, no veils, no cones), all facing the same direction toward the horizon. Keep their number and their positions on the rocks."
- **eye-open** (sp-02-open #4) — Two star clips in frame; her canon has one.
  - instruction: "Remove the orange star hair clip on the left side of the image, so that exactly one small clay-orange eight-pointed star clip remains (the one on the right side of the image). Keep the eye, the lashes, the orange streak and everything else."
- **chad-bliss** (sp-03-mid #2) — Modern yacht fittings behind them, and a second star on her face.
  - instruction: "Replace every modern object behind them (metal railing posts, wire lifelines, the white fibreglass deck edge, the crumpled clear plastic object) with the dark wooden rail, thick hemp rigging and square sail of an ancient black Greek galley at twilight. Also remove the second small orange star on her cheek or temple, keeping only the star clip in her hair."
- **sirens-arms** (sp-06-fix #4) — A modern boat on the horizon.
  - instruction: "Replace the boat on the horizon with a small black ancient Greek galley with one square sail and a row of oars. Keep the women on the rocks exactly as they are."
- **rower-sees** (sp-03-mid #1) — The rower wore a modern hooded parka; modern gear at the rail.
  - instruction: "Change the rower's modern hooded parka into a plain undyed off-white linen tunic, and make everything at the ship's side dark weathered wood and natural hemp rope, with no modern gear. Keep his orange foam earplug, his hair, the water and the pale face under the water."
- **chad-weeping** (sp-04-end #3) — Her props on him (the headset, the star) and modern fittings.
  - instruction: "Remove the headset microphone from the man's face and jaw, and remove the small orange star from his brow. Replace any stainless-steel post or metal fitting and any modern synthetic rope with dark wood and thick natural hemp rope. Keep his face, his tears and the translucent glass hand on his cheek."
- **pass-gold** (sp-04-end #2) — Hooded, robed figures in the alcoves.
  - instruction: "Make every small figure in the cliff alcoves a bare-headed young woman with a glossy black jaw-length bob, in a white structured high-necked gown; no hoods, no veils, no robes. Keep the cliffs, the ship, the gold light and the colossal pale face behind the ship."
- **breach-wide** (sp-09-review #2) — The Mask's orange streak stuck out like a horn.
  - instruction: "On the colossal porcelain mask of the woman's face, make the orange streak a flat streak of clay-orange hair lying inside the black bangs, not a horn or spike sticking out. Keep the mask, its crack, the dark sea creature around it, the ship and the sea."
- **tying** (sp-01-cast #3) — The crew were copies of him; this early plate still had his buzz cut.
  - instruction: "Change only the two men who are tying him and the rowers behind: make them men of every age and build, one grey-haired with a grey beard, one young with long hair tied back, in plain undyed off-white linen tunics, each with a small orange foam earplug; none of them is bald, none has a thick dark beard like the man at the mast, and none wears black. Give the man tied at the mast a cleanly shaved head; keep his beard, his black t-shirt and the rope."
- **chrome-vial** (sp-09-review #2) — First pass: a pink six-pointed star instead of her eight-pointed clip.
  - instruction: "Make her hair clip a small flat clay-orange EIGHT-pointed star (exactly eight points), not a pink six-pointed star. Keep her face, the vial, the syringe, the chrome and everything else."
- **chrome-vial (2)** (the first edit) — Second pass, on the first edit: the clip made from this plate kept an uncapped needle in view, so the syringe went, and a wire hoop at her jaw became her headset.
  - instruction: "Remove the syringe and its needle completely; her lower chrome-gloved hand rests empty and relaxed against her chest. Replace the hoop-shaped wire and round disc hanging at her left jaw with a thin dark headset microphone: one slim boom running from her left ear along her cheek to just beside the corner of her mouth. Keep the vial in her raised hand, the star clip, the orange streak and her expression."
- **tighter** (sp-04-end #4) — He had hair; his canon is a shaved head.
  - instruction: "Shave the man's head completely: a smooth, freshly shaved scalp with no hair at all. Keep his beard, his face, his eyes, his expression and the rope across his chest exactly the same. Keep the woman exactly as she is."
- **chad-weeping #1** (sp-04-end #1, an alternate) — The alternate take used as the start of the outro clip M-s091-b; same fix as chad-weeping.
  - instruction: "Remove any headset microphone from the man's face and jaw and any small orange star from his brow. Replace any stainless-steel post or metal fitting and any modern synthetic rope with dark wood and thick natural hemp rope. Keep his face, his tears and the translucent glass hand on his cheek."
- **pass-gold #1** (sp-04-end #1, an alternate) — The alternate used as the reference for clip M-s087; same fix as pass-gold.
  - instruction: "Make every small figure in the cliff alcoves a bare-headed young woman with a glossy black jaw-length bob, in a white structured high-necked gown; no hoods, no veils, no robes. Keep the cliffs, the ship, the gold light and everything else."

## anabology's verdicts on the plates (day 2)

anabology reviewed storyboard draft 3 shot by shot, with each shot's picked plate on the board. Their notes are recorded in the design library's Midjourney rankings: **70 rows on 68 plates** (43 picks, 13 rejects, 14 comments; one note often covers several plates). They are quoted verbatim, typos included. Every reject and comment was answered in sp-09 (above), in the image edits or in storyboard draft 4; anabology signed the board off with "make all those changes and we're good to go".

- **reject** · s010 · "s010 - doesnt seem riht , theres 3 guys here just looking straight and ear plugs arnet set in. the man whos being tied to mast shouldnt have earplugs because he want sto hear."

- **reject** · s026 · "s026 - i feel like it should be a slightly zoomed out shot here, and maybe shes a floating ghost and we make this synthetically with seedance. like, i imagine we have a floating side profile version of her (like, chest towards floor, floating with head forward as if shes going to whisper in someones ear, high fashion/elegantly), and we can use that as a reference for seedance to make it make her appear and whisper into the ear. and we could synthetically make her semi transparent. sicne 2026 needs to have him be tied to the mast and rn hes not in s026 which might be tough to achieve with mj alone. would throw out s026 shot because sh elooks younger there too."

- **reject** · s057 · "s057- maybe use actual references for this face despite me aying not to ,sinc ethis is the one to condition and get the face right. like the idea though."
  - mask-sings-2 (sp-01-cast)
- **comment** · s059–s060 · "s059 and s060 id liek to just merge - s060 shot, she should then hold up a vial of peptide and maybe a needle. instead of forcing it to be a full shot in s059."
