Elements
Set up characters, locations, props, and their reference images.
The Elements tab holds the people, places, and objects used in your film. A reference image gives the generation model a visual example to follow.
Choose an element type
| Type | What to include |
|---|---|
| Cast | A character's appearance, role, and voice. |
| Locations | The setting, layout, and lighting of a place. |
| Assets | Props or products that need a recognizable appearance. |
Describe what the camera can see. For a character, “sea-bleached hair and a patched wool coat” is more useful as a visual reference than “misses his wife.” For a location, describe the space; put the action in the script.
Create and approve a reference
- Write the element's description.
- Upload a reference image or generate one from the description.
- Review the image and choose the version you want to use.
- Approve or lock the reference when you're happy with it.
If you need to change an approved reference, unlock it first. Changes affect future generations; existing frames and clips keep their original appearance.
Use references in scenes
Link each element to the scenes where it appears on the Board. Check those links before generating a scene so the model receives the intended references.
References improve consistency, but they don't guarantee an exact match. Review faces, clothing, room layouts, and product details in each result.
