P: Maintaining a scene or character across different prompts

Fixed and merged a bunch of similar posts into this one. It definitely solves a lot of issues. And the fact that you can then animate the frames via FF video without leaving the board is a bonus!

Kevin,

So many people have been looking for this capability that I would save this as "Correct Answer" instead of the previously listed Correct Answer. Although there was somewhat of a workaround (through some very tedious steps), THIS is what I believe folks are actually looking for. It's got my vote. Thank you again. Important information.

THANK YOU Kevin. Now "That's what I'm looking for." Well done. Thank you for setting me straight. This WILL be used. I would (I being you) post this on the string of everyone who's been asking for Character consitency. A Lot of people will be very grateful.

I checked your link and see nothing that says or shows a character in various scenarios that is clearly the same character. A mood board is not a story board. Admitedly, I haven't looked at everything - nor do I have time to. I HATE spending my valuable time looking at things people send me only to find out what was sent has nothing to do with what I'm looking for. Very similar to click bait.

I appreciate the fact that you're trying to help. I don't mean to come across as ungrateful. I've just been following - waiting - for Adobe to introduce character consistency (as have hundreds of others, many on this forum) and we keep getting the runaround. At the very least you (Adobe) could be honest and just say something like, "we have no plans at this time to implement Character Consistency" or "this is very challenging and until we get this implemented, we suggest you find another software that can perform the function you're looking for." We work daily in this field, we know if something works or doesn't. Taking production time to "experiment" with features someone "says" works correctly only to realize it, in fact doesn't, is a huge time suck that many of us don't have time to play with. Sorry but this is frustrating.

@CSI Productions if you are an Enterprise customer, you do have access to these. Your Admin has to turn the features on in the Adobe Console. 

You should check out Firefly boards - its has all of that included inside:

https://www.adobe.com/products/firefly/features/moodboard.html

Case in point.

I've been using NanoBanana for this purpose, Envato Elements offers NanoBanana storyboarding, ImageGen, Image editing and VideoGen with consistent characters. We use that service for stock animation templates, graphic templates etc. Now we use it for storyboarding as well.

I saw that PS now has NanoBanana in the GenFill dialog but from what I've heard from Adobe you need the highest level of Creative Cloud to get it to show up in the GenFill window. Not worth the price of admission when there are other services that just throw it in as part of their membership. My corporate account with multiple seats is apparently not enough to have this feature appear in PS so I use workarounds.

Thanks for the heads up though. This request has been out there for over a year. I'm sure others will be happy to hear.

@CSI Productions with the release of Nano Banana/Google Gemini and Firfefly Boards, we're now able to easily produce storyboards with maintaining scenes and character consistently. We can even convert the frames to video for animatics/POC cuts. 

I wouldn't hold my breath. Many of us (sorry Adobe) have moved on to other AI production methods where consistant characters have been implemented since the beginning. Adobe has some of the most advanced talent in the businees. For them to not have implemented character consistency by now is a pretty clear indication they have no intention of implementing it. I can't believe that, with them being one of the most advanced software developers in the business, they can't implement this into their software. It makes no sense.

Lastly, so many people have asked for this important feature and those from Adobe who respond suggest this is the first they've heard of it (NOT), they ask you to upvote the feature requests (been upvoted for over a year), they post a response with "Correct Response" tied to it (like they've solved the challenge) but it's not the "correct answer" at all.

Save yourself the frustration and look elswhere, this feature exists in so many other applcations I've lost count. In they end, I suspect they'll just buy out whatever company does it best and slap Adobe on it.
