Course Outline

1. Generative AI Art

In this section, we will be introduced to the exciting world of AI-generated art. The section begins with an introduction to the course objectives and an overview of AI theory, including NLP, ML, and supervised learning. You will then learn how to construct a good text prompt for their AI art and explore how framing influences the visible field. The section also covers a tour of AI art software, including Craiyon, Midjourney, and DALL-E 2. You will learn how to use image URLs as visual inspiration, perform image masking, and use parameters to generate unique prompts.

1. Introduction

In this video, we will cover the course learning objective and give you a brief overview of the exciting world of AI-generated art.

2. AI Theory 101

In this video, we will dive into the theory behind AI, including Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning (ML), and supervised learning. We will also give you a quick introduction to GPT-3, the powerful AI language model that we will be using throughout the course.

3. Welcome to the World of AI Text Prompts

In this video, you will learn how to construct a good text prompt for your AI art. We will cover important aspects such as modifiers, character limit, ideal length, emojis, containers, and context. We will also show you some examples and tips on how to know your subject matter and create a vaguely defined prompt.

4. Framing

In this video, we will explore how framing influences the angle of the visible field and controls how content appears in terms of perspective. We will look at some samples for Point-of-view (POV), over-the-shoulder, long shot (view of a city), and isometric view.

5. Tour of AI Art Software

In this video, we will take you on a tour of different AI art software such as DALL-E 2, Midjourney, StarryAI, NightCafe, stable diffusion, and Craiyon. We will give you an overview of each software's unique features and benefits.

6. Getting Started with Craiyon

In this video, we will have a deeper look at Craiyon, which was formerly known as DALL-E mini. We will cover the advantages and drawbacks of using Craiyon for creating AI-generated art.

7. Getting Started with Midjourney

In this video, we will take a deeper look at Midjourney and learn how to use it effectively. We will explore various features and have a look at some examples to help you get started.

8. Midjourney Image Licensing + Terms of Service

In this video, we will go over Midjourney's terms of service and other important information you should know before using the software. We will cover age requirements, blocked content, rights of use, and privacy policy to ensure that you have a clear understanding of Midjourney's policies.

9. Using Images as Part of Your Prompt

In this video, we will show you how to add one or more image URLs to your prompt in Midjourney. These images will serve as visual inspiration for your prompt and help you generate more creative ideas. We will also provide an example to demonstrate this process.

10. Image Masking with DALL-E 2

In this video, we will demonstrate how to perform image masking and change the background of an image using DALL-E 2. We will walk you through the steps and provide an example to show you how to achieve this effect.

11. Midjourney Parameters

In this video, we will introduce you to Midjourney's parameters, also known as "switches" or "flags", that should be added at the end of your prompt. We will cover negative prompts, dimensions and size, seed numbers, seeds, randomization, video, quality values, private and public mode, and show. We will also provide some examples to help you better understand how to use these parameters.
