Adding Reference Images
Each look can have multiple reference images. Click the image icon to open the Add Image dialog:
- Select from Show Files: Choose existing images already uploaded to your show's Files section
- Upload new images: Upload photos directly from your device
- Add URL: Paste an image URL from the web
- AI Generation: Click the sparkle icon to generate a reference image using AI
- Primary image: Star an image to make it the look's primary. The primary pictures the look everywhere on the tab — its card, the small thumbnail beside the look on the By Character and By Actor cards, and the look pickers on By Character, Plot and Photos. If no image is starred, the look's first image is used
- Multiple angles: Add photos showing different angles, application stages, or lighting
Reference images are the design — what the look should be. A photo of an actor actually wearing it belongs on the Photos view (below), where it is filed under the actor as well as the look.
