Technique
Prompt tips
- Think like a designerComposition, negative space and palette. It responds to layout language, not only to subject description.
- Name the mediumPhotograph, illustration, render, print. It shifts substantially on that one word.
- Batch cheaplyAt this price, generate eight and choose rather than refining blind.
- Use references for paletteUp to 4 stills is an effective way to pull a set into one colour world.
- Draft at the lower tierResolution is a small price step here, but composition reads fine at the cheaper one.
Mechanism
How Flux 2 Pro works
Flux generates stills from a prompt and up to 4 references with a pipeline that favours deliberate composition over photographic realism. The practical consequence is that it is the model to reach for when an image needs to look designed, and the wrong one when it needs to look like it was taken with a camera.
