P: Maintaining a scene or character across different prompts

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.

Creating repeatable AI models consistent for presenting clothing from ghost mannequin photos. I need to create, for example, one model in different poses, while keeping the same face. Is this possible in Firefly?

Hi Michal36382691g4ix!

You can try adding a reference image and add the prompt to create images: https://adobe.ly/4313UPN

 

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Unless firefly updated something, recreating faces or people across
different scenes with consistency, it doesn’t work. Other AI apps feature
the ability to recreate consistent faces.

Hello,

 

I am visual communication designer. We got a task from one of our client for a TV commercial. I am actively using firefly for almost any of my creative work. For this spesific task, we tried to create a storyboard with Firefly.

 

I had my main character as a middle-eastern guy who's in his 40's. It was very helpful to generate the scenes, but the character's face was different in every single scene, even though I used the exact same prompts. I tried to keep the same face in different scenes but it didn't work. So at the end of trying a lot, I just go back to the traditional way of creating a storyboard with my drawing tablet. But I think Firefly has a very big potential for making storyboards.

 

I think it would be very useful to have a feature which keeps the progression , while we are generating multiple images for the same story. Maybe there is a way to solve my problem in this case that I don't know yet.

Thanks in advance,

Tunç

Hi tuncbudak!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with Adobe Firefly — we really appreciate your detailed feedback! If you can upload a reference image of your character, you might be able to guide Firefly in maintaining more consistent features across scenes. This could help ensure that the character’s appearance stays more consistent throughout the storyboard. However, I’ll pass your feedback along to our development team for review.

 

Let us know if you have any questions.

Hi @Harold Silva 
At this time, Firefly does not allow you to create different versions of the same character. You can use a similar prompt with the same details that describe the character but Firefly will try create a unique image each time. You could use Generative Fill to change part of the image but that is limiting if you want the character to change positions/poses.

There are deficiencies and many productive words are found to be faulty. You must urgently bring character consistency. We must be able to produce the same characters from different angles.

I think it would be good to be able to create a 'character' in FlireFly that you can then use in other images. This could be a photo-realistic person or a cartoon character that can then be placed and posed in other scenes. For example, I could write a story based on the hare and the tortoise and then create a character of the hare and one for the tortoise and then use those characters and a consistent style across all images to create a series of images to illustrate the story.

I agree.  Need to keep the same charactors to generate different head and body positions to create stop animations.

Different camera angles (like a real video storyboard) would be huge as well. Wide establishing shot, cut to medium shot of two people talking, cut to CU of character 1 (looking the same as the wide and medium shots with the same character having different expression(s)), cut to opposite angle showing second character matching their same face as wide/medium. So much need for this feature. I also see other software with this capability. I wonder why Adobe (with the power to do everything we've come to love) is struggling with this one. Not so much as a peep or progress report on if they're even heard their client base. chirp-chirp

I imagine the goal isn't to produce 5 second videos. If the goal is to use firefly video to create shorts, commercials, educational videos, or full-length videos, we need a storyboard function. Currently I am not sure what the "seed" does as it doesn't provide and generation consistency.

I divided the complete story into 5 second prompts buAnd taking a screenshot of the character generated in the first video and an image upload to control the output generates an error. I would love to create a complete scene and a storyboard that locks in the main character/s output would be amazing. For now I am doing it old school.

Yes please! I can't imagine the ultimate goal is to generate only 5 second clips. A storyboard is so necessary. And it would be easy to add. The space already exist with the thumbnail video history. Just make that a storyboard. Make the seed actually mean something by locking in the main character. And if a portrait image is uploaded as a guide, autogenerate the body, using the image as a guide not the entire video. Thank you for requesting this. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
