Categories & Use Cases

A Solid Creative Image and Video Generator.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Midjourney for both image generation and video generation. A lot of background images and background videos for web pages. Midjourney helps us create unique solutions for imaging needs. Our use is primarily for digital marketing and websites, but we occasionally use Midjourney assets in print materials and advertisements.

Pros

  • Image generation - Real Estate Photography.
  • Video Generation - Areal Video / Drone Style Video.
  • Image generation - background patterns, non specific.

Cons

  • It's easy to get in a loop with Midjourney and waste credits trying to get a different result. Having a partial refund system would be great.
  • Video generation still takes up too much of your credits.

Return on Investment

  • It's positively sped up deliverable time frames.
  • It's helped us reduce costs on purchasing stock images/videos.

Midjourney - endless creativity but zero free tier

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I do use Midjourney for content creation for internal presentations and documentation. In the wider company, Midjourney is also mainly used for content and picture generation, but due to CICD / licensing restrictions it is limited to internal use only. There are questions around a wider use but that is currently not clear.

Pros

  • Image generation
  • improving the generated results
  • providing multiple variants/options

Cons

  • The customer interface via Discord
  • Provide App or browser based access to the tool
  • Sovereign solutions with trained model / CICD compliant input

Return on Investment

  • No free version was definitely a negative argument compared to other tools
  • Standard Plan is a great fit as it provides unlimited Relax Mode image generation
