Surgery. Then discharge.
Same machine that arrived destroyed walks out spotless. Nobody bought a new one.
His phone hasn't stopped since. He can't keep up with the requests.
Give me a product nobody looks at twice and I'll build it a world.

Can the same prompt start feeling like you? 🥸
I'm not a fan of long, super-specific prompts, and much more interested in building systems where my vision lives naturally in every single image. So I'm pretty picky about creating personal styles for each of my projects
Sometimes one sref is enough, sometimes it takes a combination of a few, and sometimes I need a whole moodboard
Personalization used to feel like the most inconvenient option because I had to go through hundreds of image pairs, which took me daaaays. But apparently the whole thing has been redesigned in 8.2 and now all the images are shown in one even grid, and you need to choose waaaay fewer to get a really good result!
So in case you've been avoiding Midjourney personalization too, you can probably stop now 🎉

In the video: my style for aftrglo compared to the default generations
Love it sooo much, my current favorite❤️🔥
Drop a prompt in the comments (even one word hehe) and I'll send you the image it creates🙌
The 8.2 grid change sounds like a genuine quality of life fix, hundreds of pairs down to one grid. Curious what tips you off that a single sref isn't going to cut it and you need the whole moodboard instead, is that decided project by project or do certain aesthetics just always need more scaffolding?
Making a video is like making a song.
Nobody hears the 40 takes. They hear the one.
Same with a film and video. You cut and cut and cut, and what's left has to do two things: be a version you'd defend, and be a version that's theirs. Landing both at once is the job.
I've got folders of ideas that never shipped. Openings, transitions, a color that was wrong for this one. They become vocabulary for the next brief.
Some behind the scenes on what didn't make the cut, but will shape another one someday.
Hey! We're GOAT Studios 🐐
Every creative studio needs a first introduction—this is ours.
For our first post on Contra, we wanted to keep things simple: a clean photography studio, a goat walking into frame, one confident "mee," and a subtle reveal of the GOAT Studios logo.
This short film reflects how we approach creative work: simple ideas, strong execution, and meticulous attention to detail.
At GOAT Studios, we combine creative direction with cutting-edge AI technologies to create cinematic visuals, branded content, and digital experiences that help businesses stand out.
This piece was produced entirely through an AI-powered creative pipeline, including concept development, prompt engineering, image generation, animation, sound design, editing, and final compositing.
We're excited to be part of the Contra community and look forward to collaborating with brands, agencies, and fellow creatives.
Feel at home! Contra is the PLACE to be for designers.
