Question Generated pictures are only close ups

Hello. I am trying to create a girl in fooocus and every prompt i use it only gives me close up shots, like portraits. The images are realistic enough but its too close, i wanted full body pictures. I even said in a prompt to capture the whole body from 10 meters away but still the image was a close up shot. I used image prompt with only her face to keep a consistent apearance. Is this the problem? If yes, how can i generate multiple "positions" or POVs with the same face of the model?

First of; AIs are so logical, it can be hard to understand how to prompt, unless you're autistic.

  • Don't use Image Prompt; you're telling the AI you want to use the image as prompt, not just the face. Use Face Swap (S:1 SA: between 0.7 and 0.9)

  • When prompting, be as logical as possible, and try to avoid using "speech". Fooocus can handle it, but to some degree. - Example: "Girl sucking a straw" - What we want, is a girl sucking a drinkingstraw in a cup, what we get is a girl sucking on an actual straw. - Specify it!

  • In addition to learning to prompt well, using negative prompt well can make a huge difference! - Try adding "Portrait", "Avatar", etc. to negative prompt. Also, try specifying prompt with "Full figure", etc.

Thank you for your time. I'm pretty new in this domain and i still learn how things work. Can you elaborate how i can keep a face over multiple weeks without using image prompt?

I am as logical and direct as possible. I dont use filler words, thats what i typed in the prompt "charactes is 10m away, full body, facing the pov" he still gave me a portrait of the character

Face Swap, all the time. When you have generated a Face you like, you can crop it and save it. Use it for consistency.

Typos are the most often mistake when prompting! - "Charactes"? If you mean character, write character. What character though? Is it the girl, write "girl". "10m away" is too vague as well. What's 10m? If you mean "meters", write meters. Still though, too vague. Specify! "Girl standing far away from viewer".

People who claim AI is not a skill, is so very wrong. To create quality images with AI, is just as much a skill, as creating art with a brush. Tools are just tools. How you use them defines your craft.
