๐Ÿงช Constraint Layer

The constraint layer is a dedicated suffix to be added to the above prompts for more creative models.

The goal is to force them to hold back on the creative aesthetic, storytelling and scene interpreting and focus on the subject.

Methodology

Constraint

๐Ÿ”น 1. STRICT (for simple prompts)

For Styles and Light prompts

single subject focus, no additional objects, minimal environment, clean composition, subject centered, fully visible, no obstruction, controlled framing, simple background

๐Ÿ”น 2. RELATIVE (for complexity prompts)

For Scene Complexity prompts

subject remains dominant, clear focal point, readable composition, controlled layout, balanced elements, no subject obstruction, structured scene

This constraint layer was not used and the โ€“style raw flag was used instead in MidJourney
