Character consistency

invideo agent locks your character once and reuses that same reference for every shot, instead of re-describing them in each prompt. When you define a character — by uploading a reference or describing them — agent creates a persistent character reference that stays attached to the project. Every shot generation is conditioned on that reference, so face, build, and defining features carry from shot one to the final frame without you re-prompting.

Yes. You can build a character from your own face, an illustrated or 3D mascot, or a physical product by uploading reference images. Faces and mascots are treated as identity characters; a product is treated as a character object, so packaging, colour, proportions, and logo placement stay fixed across shots. Upload two to three references at different angles in clean, even lighting for the strongest lock. Only use likenesses you have the rights to.

Yes — identity and styling are handled as separate layers. You can change wardrobe, hair, makeup, setting, and lighting shot to shot while the locked identity attributes stay put, which is what makes montages, time jumps, and before/after sequences workable. One caveat: heavy occlusion — full helmets, dramatic prosthetics, extreme makeup — gives the model less identity signal to hold onto, so expect to review those shots more closely.

Yes. Each character carries its own reference, and agent anchors both independently within a single frame, so two-hander dialogue and group scenes stay on-model. Multi-character shots are inherently harder than solo ones — the main failure mode is feature bleed, where one character picks up traits from the other. You reduce it by giving each character distinct silhouette, wardrobe, and hair, and by keeping framing wide enough that both faces read clearly.

Yes — consistency is enforced at the agent layer, not by any single model. Agent carries the same character reference and runs the same checks whichever model renders the shot, so switching models mid-project doesn't reset your character. That said, reference fidelity varies between models, so agent routes character shots to models with stronger reference conditioning rather than treating all models as interchangeable for identity-critical work.

Agent runs a verification pass on every generation, comparing the output against your character reference before the shot reaches your timeline. It checks the attributes that define the character — facial structure, hair, build, wardrobe continuity, and for products, colour and logo — and when a shot falls outside tolerance it's flagged and regenerated instead of quietly passed through. You see what was caught, so drift surfaces during generation rather than in final review.

Yes. You can set which attributes agent enforces and how strictly, so a shot can hold a face tightly while wardrobe stays loose. You can also turn checking off for shots where drift is the point — stylised sequences, transformation beats, dream or memory footage, or heavy art-direction passes where a strict identity match would fight the look you're after. Checks are on by default.

Yes, within the project. Your character reference lives at the project level, so every new script, scene, or episode you generate inside that project pulls the same locked character — no re-uploading, no re-prompting, no gradual drift across a series. If you start a separate project, you re-import the character reference to carry them over.
