Let's say I wanted to storyboard a script and produce different angles of the same thing. It would be nice to have something that holds on to the core look and objects within the frame so we can get a wide, medium , and close shot of the same scene.

This tutorial on Adobe Learn covers how to maintain consistent characters across multiple storyboards using Firefly Boards. The same method would work using Text to Image generation as well.

I think a great approach would be to have a project board where you can upload character references from proscribed angles, effectively training a very small LoRA. I realize this would require using more compute time, but I would bet that many people would gladly use this feature. Alternatively, offer a training service for more advanced customers. Many providers are already doing this.

@thurid_wadewitz @SamarthS why doesn't the two samples above not meet this need? I uploaded a character (me) in boards and was able to generate 16 different scenes using my consistent look.

Many people already requested for consistent character generation. I would love to have a possibility to use/upload a character image and to use that character in my upcoming generations.

"A 2x2 grid of images showing this man getting out of a sports car in a busy city"

This was generated from a simple selfie headshot. While it's not a perfect representation of me (the source of the selfie), it's remarkably close. Starting from several actual images in the same layer showing different angles and lighting may yield more accurate results. Cleaner starting images definitely produce more consistency so far. The main trick is getting everything you want to use as a reference in a single flat layer, then selecting the entire layer.

It has been marked correct.

For those who come across this thread later, please note that it started in March 2023 and things have changed since then. Adobe listens!

Sounds really interesting Kevin, do you have a rough outline of the prompts and steps you did to achieve the storyboard with the consistent character/talent/subject? Thank You.

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!
