    I have watched a several kid-journey illustrations videos over the last week AFTER discovering Mid journey Sunday and your videos are the most comprehensive. At first I just going to put my images on products and sell them BUT you have shown me how to hack the system to make consistent images to create a children’s book. Thank you. -Renina

    Killin’ it, Swanson-very helpful. Is the midjourney bot a 1 time fee or annual?

    • @ScottSwanson314
      @ScottSwanson314  Рік тому +1

      Thanks! Midjourney is actually a monthly fee. I plan to pay it when I'm going to work on a project intensely as it saves a lot of time. It allows 15 hours of fast processing per month vs the slow processing. There are annual plans as well.

      Yes you can upload images and generate new images based off of those. You can also use it to blend images.

    Hello, I have a question. If you have a photo of a character in real life, can you upload the photo and have the AI put it in a comic form, or will it generate an illustration from the real phoo??? Thank you 😊

    • @ScottSwanson314
      @ScottSwanson314  6 місяців тому +1

      Yes, you can upload images of anything, including real life photos. You can then have midjourney use those to modify them however you want.

      Yes you can. This is also part of the process in my video I'm working on. I used amazon KDP to actually make the book and copyright it.

    Can we make youtube videos using Our own Voice and using midjourney illustrations to tell a story? is it allowed on UA-cam? will it be monetized? if we use our own voice over, Thank you!

    • @ScottSwanson314
      @ScottSwanson314  Рік тому +1

      That's a great question. I definitely think you could make a video with midjourney illustrations and your voice to tell a story on UA-cam. There are also several text too speech AIs that you could use, rather than your own voice

    could you please tell me where can I find the right size for a children’s book?

    • @ScottSwanson314
      @ScottSwanson314  Рік тому

      I can help with what I've learned. There isn't any "right"size for a kids book. Many of them are 6" x 9".
      Here is a link on Amazon to get an idea of different trim sizes.

      @ScottSwanson314  6 місяців тому

      Sorry to hear that. You can try downloading Google Chrome or a browser similar to that that supports discord. I also read the other day that midjourney is going to move off of discord and to its own designated website. That is probably a few months away still.

    Does Midjourney own copyright on the images you create?

    • @ScottSwanson314
      @ScottSwanson314  Рік тому

      From what I have read, the text in the books I have made are copyrighted but the images generated by the journey are not protected by copyright.

      If you are skilled enough, and modify the images, the more you modify the better, then you could/should own the new image you made based on Midjourney. At the very least, no one else will have a digital version of your modified image to use in their own book etc.

    You don't have to pay 30 for a private. Just invite the both to your server

    • @ScottSwanson314

      Correct. The $30 is for additional fast processing time. Helps speed up the process drastically.

      I think even if you invite to the private, they are still available to the public. For stealth mode, you definitely need to pay additional $30.
