Midjourney: the creative reference for generative AI imagery
Midjourney is one of the world leaders in generative AI imagery. Published by Midjourney, Inc., an independent company based in San Francisco and founded in 2021 by David Holz, the service generates visuals from text prompts, relying on proprietary models trained on massive image corpora. Midjourney is praised by designers, communicators, marketers, illustrators and content creators for the aesthetic quality and visual coherence of its outputs, particularly on V6 (launched end of 2023) and V7 (launched in 2025). The service is accessible via Discord (historical interface), the alpha.midjourney.com web portal and now on the official web application.
In French-speaking Switzerland, communication agencies, private banks, international organisations, scale-ups, creative studios and marketing departments of companies of all sizes integrate Midjourney into their workflows for visual production (editorial illustration, mood boards, social media visuals, commercial materials, stylised packshots). Good Midjourney use requires mastery of image prompt engineering, advanced parameters (–ar, –style, –niji, –sref, –cref, –weight) and integration into a visual production chain (Photoshop retouching, Illustrator vectorisation, InDesign layout). ITTA offers a Midjourney catalogue covering professional uses and integration into a global marketing strategy.
Following a recognised Midjourney training opens access to highly demanded roles: AI designer, AI creative, digital communicator, content marketer, illustrator, art director, creative project manager, agency creative, social media manager, content creator. Midjourney is now an expected skill in many agencies and marketing departments in French-speaking Switzerland, complementing Adobe skills (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign).
Whether you are a marketing or communication professional wanting to integrate Midjourney into your workflows, a designer wishing to accelerate creative drafts, or leadership wanting to understand the stakes of generative AI imagery in the enterprise, our Midjourney training in Geneva and Lausanne covers the full path.

Discover Generative AI with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Midjourney is the transversal introductory training to the main generative AI tools. The programme covers LLM (Large Language Models) and diffusion model fundamentals, onboarding to ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), Gemini (Google) and Midjourney, text and image prompt engineering, differences between models, enterprise use cases, and ethical and legal issues.

Midjourney and the publisher ecosystem at ITTA
Midjourney fits into a broader generative AI and visual creation ecosystem. The root publisher ITTA Artificial Intelligence regroups all ITTA generative AI training. The Anthropic publisher covers Claude for text and reasoning uses. The OpenAI publisher covers ChatGPT and DALL-E, a text and image alternative. The graphic arts and DTP sub-domain covers Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, essential to retouch, vectorise and lay out Midjourney visuals. The digital strategy sub-domain brings the marketing framework into which Midjourney integrates. The video and sound sub-domain covers Premiere Pro and After Effects, complementary for producing video content integrating Midjourney visuals.
Midjourney trends in 2026
Midjourney continues to evolve rapidly in 2026. Version V7 (launched in 2025) significantly improves character consistency, prompt fidelity and photorealistic rendering quality. The Style Reference (–sref) and Character Reference (–cref) functions maintain visual coherence on image series, essential for communication materials (campaign, editorial series). Midjourney extends its capabilities to video (Video V1 mode) and image editing (Vary Region, Pan, Zoom Out). Integration into Adobe creative workflows (Photoshop Generative Fill, Illustrator AI, Express) progresses. Questions of copyright, transparency and commercial use remain at the heart of European legal news, with the AI Act progressively clarifying the obligations of providers and users. Our pedagogical content regularly integrates these evolutions to remain aligned with current practices.
