Character Reference for Video

Define the character before the next scene.

A new setting or action can make a character harder to describe consistently. Start by identifying the facial features, hair, clothing, and other details that make this character recognizable to you.

Use the reference to explain who the scene is about. Describe the action and setting separately so the character's identity has a clear place in your idea.

The Character and the Changing Scene

Compare the character reference with each result. Look at the identity and appearance details you intended to carry across the scenes.
