Midjourney Prompt to Create an Advertising Script
Midjourney is an artificial intelligence image generation tool that is revolutionizing advertising creation. While Midjourney does not generate text per se, it becomes a formidable ally for designing the visual elements of an advertising script: storyboards, keyframes, atmospheres, and shot compositions. By visualizing every sequence of your commercial before filming even begins, you significantly accelerate the creative process and align your entire team around a shared vision. Art directors, filmmakers, and advertisers now use Midjourney to pre-visualize their advertising concepts, test different artistic directions, and present convincing moodboards to their clients. Whether you are working on a TV commercial, a social media ad, or a display campaign, Midjourney's ability to produce high-quality cinematic visuals transforms the way advertising scripts are conceived and validated. This guide offers optimized prompts to generate the key visuals for each shot of your advertising script, from the opening shot to the final packshot, including the emotional sequences that capture your target audience's attention.

Why this prompt works
This prompt leverages Midjourney's advanced syntax by combining technical advertising cinematography terms (anamorphic, rim lighting, shallow depth of field) that the model associates with high-end outputs. The 16:9 ratio and the --s 750 --q 2 parameters force high stylization and maximum quality, replicating the aesthetic of professional commercials. The modular structure with brackets allows each storyboard frame to be adapted while maintaining visual consistency throughout the script.
Use Cases

Expected Output
You will obtain a photorealistic image in a 16:9 cinematic format, resembling a screenshot from a premium commercial. The visual will feature professional lighting, controlled depth of field, and a natural integration of the product into the scene. Each generated image will serve as a keyframe for your storyboard, enabling you to visualize and validate each shot of your script before production.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I maintain visual consistency across all frames in my ad script using Midjourney?
To ensure consistency between the different frames of your storyboard, use several techniques together. First, create a shared base prompt containing the constant elements (color palette, lighting style, --s and --style parameters) and only change the scene description for each shot. Second, use the --sref (style reference) feature in Midjourney v6 by providing the first approved image as a reference, which will force subsequent images to adopt the same visual treatment. Third, keep the same values for --s (stylize) and --q (quality) across all your generations. Finally, describe recurring characters using the exact same terms each time they appear to maximize resemblance.
Can Midjourney truly replace a professional storyboard artist for an ad script?
Midjourney doesn't replace a storyboard artist but radically transforms the pre-production workflow. It excels at quickly exploring artistic directions, generating convincing mood boards, and creating visually rich animatics in a fraction of the traditional time. However, it has limitations: difficulty reproducing the exact same character from one shot to the next, imprecise control over specific poses, and the impossibility of adding technical camera notes directly onto the image. The best approach is to use Midjourney for the creative exploration phase and client presentation, then refine with a storyboard artist for technical shooting instructions if necessary.
Which Midjourney parameters are most important for achieving a professional advertising look?
Three parameters are essential for an advertising look. The --ar 16:9 ratio is indispensable because it reproduces the standard format for video spots and immediately gives a cinematic feel. The --s (stylize) parameter, set between 500 and 850, pushes Midjourney toward more artistic compositions and more dramatic lighting, characteristic of high-end advertising. The --q 2 parameter maximizes the level of detail and rendering quality. In addition, --style raw in Midjourney v6 reduces automatic beautification and produces more realistic and controllable images. For film-like textures and grain, add terms like '35mm film grain' or 'shot on ARRI Alexa' to your prompt to steer the rendering toward an authentic cinematic aesthetic.
