Using Different Visual Styles Across Different Scenes
Master per-scene visual assignments: lock individual scene styles, let Adaptive Styles recommend treatments, or build a Custom Style Mix.
Choosing Your Direction Method
In Creative Bible (/studio/creative), the Creative Direction card lets you decide how visual styles are distributed across your scenes:
- Single Style — Every shot inherits the same style. Best for narrative fiction, short stories, and uniform animations.
- Adaptive Styles — The AI analyzes each scene's narrative purpose and picks the best matching style from your active library (e.g. dramatic scenes get cinematic film, data scenes get infographics).
- Custom Style Mix — You choose 2 to 6 specific styles, and manually assign which scene gets which style. The AI only fills scenes you leave open.
Locking a Scene's Style Manually
You can change or lock any individual scene's visual style at any time:
- In Creative Bible, scroll to Style of each shot (or open the Scenes stage).
- Find the scene you want to change.
- Open the style dropdown for that scene and pick your desired visual style or mode.
- Your choice is immediately LOCKED. Running automated script re-breakdowns will NEVER overwrite your manual choice.
- To return a locked shot back to AI automatic selection, click Let the system decide.
Maintaining Cross-Scene Harmony
When using multiple styles, Flow Batch Studio injects shared cross-scene continuity rules (color temperature, lighting mood, and recurring character features) into every shot regardless of its individual medium. This ensures that even when a video transitions from live-action to an animated diagram, the entire video feels like one cohesive production.
