1. Save the person as an element
Sign in, open Elements, add a character with a name and a few clear photos. Leave the reference sheet on: it is drawn once the photos are saved, and is charged as one still.
Consistent Character Video
01 · Once
A character is saved as an element.
Give it a name and a few photos. The studio draws a reference sheet from them: the same person from the front, three-quarter, in profile, from behind and close up. The photos and the sheet are what every later scene is shown.
- The person can be real, with their consent, or a still you drew and kept.
- The sheet is drawn from the photos you gave. It adds views; it does not replace them.
02 · Every scene
The first frame of each shot is drawn from them.
Name the element in a scene and its pictures are attached. Each shot's still is drawn from those pictures and from the still of the shot before, so the face, the clothes and the room carry across a cut. The clip then starts on that still.
- Attach a second element for the place or the product, and say what each is for.
03 · Checked before it costs
You see the face in a still before a clip is rendered.
A drifted face shows up in the keyframe, and a still costs a fraction of a clip. Change the line of the shot that is off, draw its still again, then approve the render with the price on the card.
How a Character Is Held
- 01
One element, many scenes
The character is saved once and picked again in any scene, in any project, with an @ or from the list.
- 02
Shown, not described
The model is handed the person's pictures. A sentence about brown hair holds nothing; a photo does.
- 03
A sheet of views
Front, three-quarter, profile, back and close-up on one sheet, drawn from the photos, so a turn of the head has something to go on.
- 04
Shot leads into shot
Each still is drawn with the previous shot's still beside it, for the continuity a single photo cannot give.
- 05
A still can become a character
Draw a person on an image model, keep the still you like, and make it an element. Invented people work the same way as real ones.
- 06
Models that hold people
Kling 3 Turbo Pro is the catalog's model for people in motion. The first frame a clip starts on is the same whichever model you pick.
- 07
Wardrobe and place too
A product, an outfit or a room is an element like a person is, and a scene can be held to several at once.
- 08
A cheap check
Stills are priced before they are drawn and cost far less than a clip, which is where a wrong face should be caught.
- 09
From the chat as well
The connector adds a picture as an element from Claude or ChatGPT and writes scenes held to it.
How to keep a character consistent
2. Write scenes with them in it
In the box, pick the element and write what happens. Every shot's first frame is drawn from the element's pictures.
3. Check the stills, then render
Look at each shot's still. Change the line of a shot whose face is off and draw it again, then approve the render on the scene's card.
