MUSE · Lesson 5 of 17

Cast and locations

After this you can lock a face and a place so they stay the same in every scene.

This lesson is written but not yet recorded. Everything below still applies, so open MUSE and follow along.

  1. 1

    A character with a locked reference image keeps the same face across every shot. Without one, the engine invents a new person each time. This is the single biggest cause of a film that feels incoherent.

  2. 2

    Locations work the same way. A locked place keeps the room, the light and the geography consistent from scene to scene.

  3. 3

    You can upload your own image or generate one. Either way the reference is what travels into every render, so it is worth getting right once.

Your turn

  1. 1.Open Cast & locations in a film and add one character.
  2. 2.Give it a reference image: upload one or generate one.
  3. 3.Check the scene cards now name that character.
