Character prompt formula

Structure your prompt as: [age/gender] + [hair and eyes] + [outfit] + [expression] + [pose] + [style preset].

Example: "Teenage anime boy, messy black hair, amber eyes, red hoodie, shy smile, upper body portrait, cel-shaded style."

The consistency problem (and our solution)

Most AI character generators produce a different face every time. That breaks multi-shot storytelling.

In Anime Studio, characters and subjects are stored with reference images — so every storyboard shot keeps visual continuity.

Common questions

FAQ

Single-image generation varies by default. Use Studio's character reference system for consistent poses across shots.

What styles work best for character design?

Cel-shaded and Ghibli presets are popular for clear character silhouettes. Cyberpunk suits sci-fi OCs.
