Krea 2: what the creativity sliders do

Krea 2's creativity sliders turn one simple prompt into very different visual styles. Two prompts, one seed each, from calm to complex.

  • Create
  • Image Gen

Krea 2 is a very good model for getting images with a strong creative taste from simple prompts. What makes it different are its creativity sliders: from a single prompt, they give you very different visual styles, so you can explore a wide range of looks without making the prompt more complex.

Krea 2 Medium and Medium Turbo are fast and affordable, which makes them a good fit for the exploration phase of a project, when you’re building moodboards and trying out concepts. You don’t need long prompts either: the model does a lot of the work behind the scenes to give even a straightforward prompt an artistic finish.

Same prompt, same seed

There are four sliders: Creativity, Intensity, Complexity and Movement. In Hylope, they appear in the Advanced Controls panel as soon as you select a Krea 2 model. Here is one prompt, with the same seed, as they move:

From simple to complex

What each control changes:

  • Creativity sets how much Krea interprets your prompt before generating. Raw stays closest to what you wrote, High takes the most liberties.
  • Intensity goes from quiet, muted images to strongly stylized ones.
  • Complexity goes from simple, minimal compositions to dense, busy ones.
  • Movement goes from still images to dynamic ones, with stronger camera angles, poses and motion.

A second prompt, again with one seed: a fashion shoot in an overgrown office, with silk around the model. From the calmest setting to the most complex:
