Your AI Character Has a New Face in Every Shot. Here's How to Fix It.
Text-to-video is a lottery. Image-to-video is the cheat code.
The Problem: Text-to-Video
You describe your character perfectly, but the AI generates a different face in every shot. The scar moves, the hair changes, the identity is lost.
This is the "lottery" of text-to-video. It's a dead end for any serious, narrative project.
The Solution: Image-to-Video
You stop *describing* your character and start *showing* the AI. You provide a definitive source image as a visual anchor.
This isn't just a feature; it's the professional workflow for guaranteeing absolute consistency.
The 3-Step Character Consistency Workflow
Create Your Asset
Use an image generation tool (like Midjourney) to create your definitive character image. Get the face, clothing, and style exactly right. This is your "character sheet."
Provide the Visual Anchor
When using a video AI like Veo 3, upload your character image as a source image. This tells the AI: "This is what the character looks like. Do not change it."
Prompt for Action, Not Appearance
Now, your text prompt can focus entirely on what the character is *doing*. The AI already knows what they look like. Prompt for action, cinematography, and sound to bring your consistent character to life.
The Bottom Line
Text-to-video is for experiments. For telling a story, building a brand, or creating a professional product, **image-to-video is how you build a world.**
