Utilizing Characters in AI Image Generation
- Updated on July 2025
1. Initial Steps
- After finalizing your concept, click Generate Images.
- Select Default Mode (Work scene by scene).
- You will be directed to the frame view for the first shot, but you can work on shots in any order.
2. Character Selection
- Under the Visuals tab, select Generate new image.
- In the prompt field, type @ symbol to choose a premium character from the available list or type # to select a standard character instead.
- If you’ve asked AI to generate the prompt, manually add the characters using @ or #.
- Premium and standard characters cannot be combined in the same prompt.
- The picture generator for premium characters differs from that of standard ones.
- Character names detected in the prompt will appear in bold blue.
3. Saving and Viewing Characters
- You can view all mentioned characters in the Characters section.
4. Using Reference Pictures
- To use uploaded reference pictures, tick the box for Use reference pictures for the characters.
- However, avoid this option if the scene requires characters facing away or being viewed from behind, as the AI will render them facing forward.
- Note that the reference picture only works with premium image generation.
5. Generating the Image
- Click AI Generate to proceed with creating the image.
- Pick the style.
- The picture generator used will automatically match the type of character you’ve selected.
- For premium characters, the premium picture generator is chosen, and vice versa for standard characters.
6. Credits and Image Regeneration
- For premium AI image generation, each image consumes 1 credit from your balance.
- Standard AI image generation does not consume credits.
- Click Generate to proceed.
7. Adjustments and Finalizing
- If unsatisfied with the image, adjust the prompt and regenerate the image.
- Once satisfied, continue working on other shots where characters are needed.
