How to create lovely animated icons using Midjourney
Midjourney can help you quickly create custom icons for your projects. Here’s how to create a lovely animated icon using Midjourney.
Prompt creates basic icons on Midjourney
To successfully create icons on Midjourney, you need to write well-structured commands. Here is an example that can be applied to many situations:
A cute cartoon [subject] icon print [color] color scheme, simple lines with black outline edges, white background. The illustration style should be flat, minimal with vector graphics and a simple design. –no shadows
Roughly translated:
A cute cartoon icon according to [chủ đề] with tones [màu sắc]simple lines with black border, white background. Illustration style should be flat, minimalist with vector graphics and simple design. – no shadow
Let’s analyze each factor in this command together:
Identify the topic
A cute cartoon [subject] icon
This tells Midjourney exactly what you want to create. Being specific about the topic is important because it will give clear instructions to the AI. For example: “octopus”, “bear face” or “mushroom”.
Determine color
in [color] color scheme
Defining a color palette helps Midjourney create a consistent look. You can specify a single color like “purple” or a combination like “orange and yellow” for more complex topics.
Style elements
simple lines with black outline edges, white background
This section defines the technical aspects of the symbol. The black border creates definition, while the white background ensures your icon is easy to use in different contexts.
Design method
The illustration style should be flat, minimal with vector graphics and a simple design
This factor guides Midjourney in creating icons with the clean, modern look characteristic of vector graphics. Flat style works well for icons because it is clear even at small sizes.
Specific exceptions
–no shadows
This parameter tells Midjourney to avoid creating shadows, keeping the design really flat and simple. This is important to maintain the clean, animated icon look.
