Style & format

Set a project's look once, so every shot and asset sheet is made the same way.

A project's look is written once, on its home page, and goes into everything the project makes. Set it before you generate, and every shot starts from the same format, style, physics and sound. The cards sit below Sequences on the project's home page.

Style & format

The format, look, physics and sound every shot in this project is made with. Style and Medium also guide the reference sheets made for your assets.

The Style and format card grouped into format, style, physics and audio rows

  1. Find Style & format on the project's home page.
  2. Select the pencil on a row to edit its words, or Select style on a row that offers ready-made choices. Picking Real-life also sets the medium to live action, and Animated sets it to animated.
  3. To go back to the starting words, open the row's menu and choose Restore default.
GroupWhere it goes
FormatAspect: every shot. Medium: every asset sheet, so a live-action project's sheets come back as real photographs and an animated one's as one drawn style.
StyleEvery shot, and every asset sheet too.
PhysicsEvery shot.
AudioEvery shot.
  • Rows marked World use the project's World's words until you write your own.
  • Inherited from world shows the World and its default language. Change those on the World.

For agents

  • project_write (type: project_style_update) — fields: projectId, fields.format, fields.style, fields.physics, fields.audio

Negative & Never

What this project's pictures should never show. Negative keeps things out of every shot; Never rows keep things out of each kind of asset's reference sheets.

The Negative and Never card with shot negatives and per-kind asset sheet rules

  1. Find Negative & Never on the project's home page.
  2. Edit the rows the same way as in Style & format: the pencil, Select style, or Restore default.
  • Negative rows go into every shot, to keep out what you never want on screen.
  • Asset sheet rows shape every asset reference sheet.
  • Asset Nevers list, for each kind of asset, what its sheets never show. They go into asset sheets only.

For agents

  • project_write (type: project_style_update) — fields: projectId, fields.negative, fields.sheet
