FREE AI tool for photographers, or why MidJourney SUCKS!

okay so what do you think about all these AI tools uh for image generation let me tell you this most of them are for Professionals for example I used to play with M journey and it was fun but there is very little application with real products because you Cann put them inside the mid journey and you know put some stuff around generate some stuff around it it's it doesn't work this way same with do same with all these big corporate AI Tools in this video I'll show you how you can use use a free completely free to use free for commercial use a tool that doesn't require even internet connection you can run it locally with some amazing results and this and explain why this is a choice for professionals like you like me like other product photographers commercial photographers that works with real clients and deliver real images so this image is a real image okay this is a photography it's a great photography from one of my best stud students his name Carol Selsa and like I said he's doing amazing photography it's all real photos and well you can see cool stuff and I was reviewing this image and this particular one during my Q&A you know that I run for photographers every Thursday and during that thing I said hey Carol let's try to run it through stable diffusion and I did run through stable diffusion I got this result it's like wow however if you look at this you see the text is kind of weird I mean it's not nice but you know the all stuff is pretty good so I did modification to my prompt and I got this and then I got this and I was start playing with different images by the way look at the text text is there all is good I got this image and then got this text is not there it was before I updated workflow then this then I start continue playing I shoot this portal no text Lucky perfume just you know with iPhone next to the window and it was a piece of you know paper I hold it behind and it created different styles for me wow then I pull this from internet it was check Daniel's website you know white background and turn it into this and then turn it into that and then turn into that and I'll show you how I did it but first first why why what I call corporate paid solution is not a good choice for us because mostly because of sensorship yes the image quality may be better at some cases however a resolution is not good mid journey is even not even close to stable diffusion that I'm going to talk about in this video stable diffusion it's open source uh stability I you can check what it is you can install on your machine or you can install it on cloud and run it like this so it doesn't have any censorship it's free for commercial use and I don't think there is a way to freely use all this other software like M Journey if there is censorship I mean it's imagine Salvador Del working at his you know Studio doing his beautiful work and has a sensor somewhere sitting and you know telling what is what is okay for Community standards what is not it's a I mean it it just doesn't work this way example this normal query it's it's I was brainstorming for a client I was brainstorming ideas of um line of red wines different and uh beside photography we said hey let's think about uh labels what kind of labels could be and one of the ideas was you know red wine there is relationship between wine and blood you know in religiously like hey I mean wine it's what used to be blood it goes to the you Earths and then it comes through the grape and wine so it's there is Big meaning into this and if you play with controversy it could be interesting ideas you know just ideas so I want to run it I run this query prompt bottle of wine with an illustration of a beautiful lady in lingery yes provocative covered in blood on a label professional product photography I mean nothing wrong with this come on I mean again controversy it's it's a big thing it's good this is what mouran gave me okay but prompt detected it's against Community standards I call it I mean big time it it it will happen it can happen anywhere you don't know when on C GPT on di on any other tool that is under censorship I was working with Chad GPT a lot and I found this stupid problems when it couldn't generate me even answer uh just because some words was against Community standards believe me I didn't talk about porno him with it it it was it was professional stuff and if you run this query in this this is how workflow this is how confi stable diffusion completely free stuff looks like if you run it this is what we got let's run this workflow one more time it will be different label but this is previous generation I Was preparing for this video so if you see this is nice Photography in terms of Photography it's a little bit not correct because it's just straight line I will telling that hey we need to have you know curves on the label because of the you shouldn't should straight bottles you should should it e either slightly from top or slightly from bottom but it generates this for me without any problem and this is why I think it's super super cool this tool okay now it's two bottles not good but you got the idea the previous one and the the this is the resolution okay the resolution and it's it's even far from the maximum I mean I can on this computer I can do like about I think 80 megapixel resolution on this which no other can to tool can provide and in this video I'll tell you in short what is this you know what this comi how to use it and if you interested you can jump on I mean you can check we have I right now I start this project it's called a Mastery tools.com and I do all kind of stuff here in terms of AI but every month we'll be running boot camp real boot camp I mean you will see it on your computers but it will be you know video with me where I'll be teaching you how to work for 4 days I'll be teaching you how to work with all this stable diffusion and confu ey stuff doing animations you know real images animated or in painting when you put a real object inside something or you know architecture when you turn normal homes I mean just regular homes images of regular homes to different style or sketches into style anyway check it out on aasy tools.com you will see if if you want to learn deeply the whole thing the whole thing is not based let's jump on this one it's it's even better on this example all this pieces okay it's a it's a python code okay it's a custom python code that written by other people you can do it yourself using programmer skills or CH GPT and functionality that you can build I created this workflow myself I I combined I learn a lot from you know different workflows that people put out there that's open source Community it's beautiful thing to learn from but not structur it a lot so I need to spend lots of time doing this and I assembled this prompt specifically to inpaint real objects into generated background again each node repres present some functionality okay you can do your custom nodes and uh you can combine them you can combine any I mean it's like number of possible connections between our neur neurons in the brain more than stars in Universe right or even atoms in Universe it's just Endless Possibilities almost like here really I mean here it's almost like you can you can build any type of functionality and it's I mean it's not even close to what you can do with Journey mid Journey it's 1% of all this so here how it works I get an image okay it could be image without white background it's just an image with some subject with any type of background that's one input another input I need to put what it is it's perfume why I need it uh because I want the program I want this uh thing to cut it from the background for me I don't want even mask it I I wanted to do it there is a not for this okay it can it's called segment anything Sam segment anything and you just tell what it is and it will pull it from the background it's crazy I mean then I need second prompt part of the prompt I need to uh tell where what kind of environment so on dark rocks with blue liquid balls around shallow deps of fi f1.8 professional product photography cinematic lighting this is main prompt so object main prompt and then it's cool thing here what it can do it can take an image as a style okay I'll show you in a moment uh yeah so instead of let's let's run it like change it a little bit I'll show you how to change it uh there is thing called IP adapter you can add image that will serve as a style for this prompt for AI so it's not going to do exactly the same but it will take colors some ideas you know for the thing so for the style let's choose some image that you may like I may like for example this cool girl it was by way major generation okay let's put it here at the style okay it just a Styler so colors will be here something and okay perfume on rocks style it this way let's grab it here now let's see NQ so what happens it will be running on the machine that I built it's PC a really well powerful machine but you can do it on on normal PC without big video card you can do it even on Mac uh with some limiting functionality however if you want to do it on full power without spending you know thousand dollars on a new computer you can do it online on using cloud computing you can rent Cloud for example I found the service uh starting from $10 per month oops you can have a lot uh of computing power you can generate lots of images and it's all pre-built for you you don't need to install anything anyway if you're interested in this again check aasy tools.com check this boot camp you may not be able to jump on this month but next month uh we'll have new uh date for you and uh you can you can learn uh with me all this so what it is this is what we got on this prompt it generated for us if you look closely we see that you know it looks nice it's actually it put you know all the reflections and it really Blended stuff however the text is not good you see text is kind of text is not good this is where it's bad you know any AI it it starts distorting text but not a problem here we have things called mask yeah almost like Photoshop let's just select this text as a mask we'll make mask it's very rudimentary there is no in Zoom here but I'll try to select select text as a mask okay and save it and run again so what it will do this prom that I built it will first of all it separates image from the background by the keyword keyword is perfume you see it cut it it cut it the control net and then it made a mask and then it put it into the real object and then I mean real generation what is real generated image and then I apply mask to this so let's see how it's done here with mask you see the text now is untouched almost untouched well I wasn't good here a little bit but mainly right so it's it's the same bottle basically and you see there is reflection there is I mean it really changed it little bit to make sure that it fit in that background for example you can have um different promp uh one second where is my prompt um let's add some smoker Fire Let's do on the dark rocks with blue fire no with blue and red fire and fire it's already already shallow deps are fi f11 blah blah blah okay so blue smoke and fire and orange orange will look cool here let's run this this is without any photoshoop imagine that you will generate this image in in good quality better than here we can do upscale for like I said we can do like 6,000 pixel by 5,000 pixel whatever it's you can do a lot and then use at least little bit Photoshop to blend it better this is something that you can actually use for your clients not just you know brainstorming ideas it's real stuff because what you can do what you can do oh not bad huh imagine the stuff in your portfolio this is real subject it's not like it's it's real stuff I have another examples if you if you go to boot camp you will check you will see it's not here oh it's not here unfortunately so the wine I have actual real client that they should wine and actually we can try to do it if you put the bottle of wine let's try to do wine I want this wine inside so let's say I shooted this fine in studio this is my photo from one of the lessons Okay but my clients want this photo on some lifestyle photo so it should be I need to go to restaurant or to their Winery and you know prop it or prop it in the studio and shoot with stuff around but you can do the real stuff here so if you put instead of perfume you put wine okay and here you can put on served on a table okay table and the upscale restaurant restaurant next okay bright bright window behind you know why you need it because the photo if you look at this it's bright so it should shouldn't be dark background right should be something bright behind to to make it look nice otherwise it will look not correctly rendered bright window window behind okay sh do professional product photography andate lighting of course we need to change this okay we need to change our photo that we Style let's choose something I may have something nicer like like real restaurant you know do I have real restaurant here well something like this for example that's just again just for a style if restaurant has different colors you can you know hey ask client hey send me a photo of your actual you know property or whatever and let's run prompt let's see so it detects the bottle you see it it Clips it it creates the mask okay and then it it's visible here it's already start generating some environment around 20 seconds maybe 10 more seconds and we got something okay so you can see on a table there is actual reflection and refraction from this bottle right it's it's real stuff we have uh something from the window we have Reflection from the glasses and yeah I didn't tell what kind of glasses so we need to do more precise prompt it shouldn't be um red wine and three glasses what's the reason we can tell that's less glasses uh but it's already something for 20 seconds if we add here the mask let's do masking where is our mask so I want to Max this it may work well may not work well depends on many different things but at least we can try again it's better to do in Photoshop of course if you do serious stuff it should be done in Photoshop however if your client want like I don't know 100 images and want to pay you I don't know like $1,000 I mean $10 per image it's no way you can shoot it I mean it's nothing but maybe that need good quality maybe they need it for Instagram you know lots of pictures on different environment this is the answer you can do it for them okay oh computer is kicking okay so we got this it's again it's not perfect but you can see a label become better and better there are things that could be improved of course the bottle itself gets a little bit distorted again it's better to use Photoshop but what's cool when you put it the mask just next second layer with real image in Photoshop everything will be correctly for the bottle you know all the environment it will have bottle refle ction or Shadow or whatever so it makes things way way way better okay so guys this is just one example just one I'll show you a few another examples uh this is my presentation I was a speaker on CH GPT event where the stable diffusion really shines I mean really do cool stuff well this is you already seen this is you already seen this is for example this is was a little bit of Photoshop I did it you know photo not white ground iPhone shot and I put it took me 5 minutes to put this on generated just bottle to look nice you know but look at this this is the real stuff we can do prototyping this is what I draw right inside the application right inside the com UI I said that it's WS ceramic blue ways it created me this how cool is that I mean it's it's just amazing so all kind of things and guys I want to ask you if you if you like this what I'm telling you if it's if you're interesting let me know in comments area what kind of what exactly you you looking to learn if you need it what you know what do you think about all this is it something that you may think you will use in your professional life as a photographer or not I truly believe that this is coming and it will be everywhere this is great tool for any visual artist you may like it may not but it it's really it will be there and we better start using it earlier because it evolves really fast the the the way that you know it it gets Improvement for last year that I was working with it it just an amazing amazing Pace I I can imagine what it will be in uh 6 months from now you better learn it this is it I hope this video uh was interesting for you again uh like it subscribe uh let me know what you think in comments I'm going to answer everything um I need your opinion I want to put more videos like this because I live in this this is my passion I just see huge potential in this I can run like about video generation show you how these things Works to generate video or change existing videos well there are so so many cases use cases business use cases for this uh stuff and I want your opinion okay so let me know and I'll see you on the next video answering any questions and hopefully we'll bring something cool for you [Music]
