Art Style Type

This SREF style blends cinematic noir aesthetics with surrealist elements. It presents a film-quality visual texture with strong dramatic contrasts and mysterious atmosphere, resembling scenes from a suspense or science fiction film. It adopts a film-like grain texture while incorporating surrealist elements, creating a visual experience that feels both familiar and strange.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics of these images include strong light-dark contrasts and dramatic lighting. The light treatment is extremely sophisticated, creating a profound sense of atmosphere. The color palette leans toward cool tones, primarily blues and blacks, occasionally punctuated with warm light sources as focal points. The images have rich texture with cinematic level of detail and diverse surface qualities. Compositions are tight and powerful, guiding the viewer's eye to key elements. This style is impressive because it evokes strong emotional responses and a sense of mystery, as if telling a story yet to unfold.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Cinematic lighting: Enhances the dramatic contrast and atmosphere of the image, creating more professional visual layers
  • Surrealism: Strengthens the dreamlike and mysterious qualities, creating more imaginative visual element combinations
  • Film grain: Adds subtle granularity and unique color processing, elevating the overall vintage atmosphere and artistic expression

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for suspense movie posters, science fiction book covers, mystery-themed game art, music album cover designs, visual marketing materials for immersive experiences, and any creative context requiring mysterious, profound or surreal atmospheres. It's also well-suited for visual content with strong storytelling elements, such as narrative photography collections or concept art works.

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2
