The prompt
Prompt
A close photograph of an old cathode-ray tube television glowing in a dark room, the curved glass front filling most of the frame, on screen a softly abstract sunset landscape rendered in broadcast-era colour, visible horizontal scanlines and a faint RGB phosphor dot pattern across the picture, gentle barrel distortion bending the image toward the corners, a soft bloom of light spilling off the glass onto the dusty plastic bezel, static fuzz creeping in at the outer edges, warm dust motes in the projected glow, the darkened room behind lit only by the screen, shallow depth of field on the bezel, no text, no letters, no channel numbers, no watermark --ar 4:3 --stylize 200How to use this prompt
- 1
Open the generator that matches the model and version above, and start a new image rather than editing an existing one.
- 2
Set the output to 4:3 and apply the settings shown in the parameters panel — together those produced the 768 × 576 image on this page.
- 3
Paste the prompt exactly as written. Changing the wording changes the image, so copy it before you edit.
- 4
Generate, then change one thing at a time. The result will not be pixel-identical to the image on this page, because no seed is recorded for it.
Midjourney takes the aspect ratio as a parameter appended to the prompt rather than as a separate control, written as --ar 4:3, and --stylize followed by a number controls how far the model pushes its own aesthetic. Append both to the end of the prompt text instead of looking for fields for them.
