Actual characters generated in Character Studio

01 / Create

A face. A personality. A world of possibilities.

Human, animal or imagined creature: describe the face, age, skin tone, hair, outfit and setting. Add your own direction whenever a preset is not enough.

  1. 01

    Create your character

    Upload an identity photo or describe a character. Choose its appearance, outfit and setting.

  2. 02

    Save a portrait or character sheet

    Choose the output and resolution, review the price, generate and save the character.

  3. 03

    Create a look or a Recast

    Reuse the saved identity for another outfit, or choose it in Recast with your video and audio passages.

02 / New looks

One character. A whole new look.

Start from a saved character, then change the wardrobe or setting. Use a style preset, describe your own outfit or add a clothing reference.

Recast generates a new video. Movement, identity and product details can vary; review the result before using it in a campaign.

Character Studio / Recast

Choose the result. See the price. Then generate.

Portraits, new looks and character sheets are image generations. Recast is a separate video generation: the selected duration and resolution affect its quote. Always use the current price shown in the app.

FAQ

Before you create your AI character

What is Character Studio?

Character Studio, previously Character Builder, creates reusable AI character references: portraits and eight-panel character sheets. You can save characters, generate new looks and use them in MaxVideoAI Recast. It is separate from Studio, the video editing workspace.

What is consistent character AI?

It means building one stable character reference so the same face, outfit, and silhouette hold up better later on.

Can I create a character sheet from one image?

Yes. You can start from one image and generate an 8-panel sheet with four full-body angles and four matching close-ups.

Can I use one face reference and one outfit reference?

Yes. You can pair one identity reference with a second image for wardrobe or outfit direction.

Can I start from scratch?

Yes. You can build a portrait anchor or character sheet from a scratch-built concept when you do not have a source image.

Can I reuse this in image-to-video workflows?

Yes. You can reuse it in prompts, Nano Banana start-frame prep, and video engines that support still references.

Can I save a character and make another look?

Yes. Save the character, open it from your character library and create a new look from its identity. Saved looks can be selected in Recast.

How does MaxVideoAI Recast work?

Select a character image or saved look, add a reference video and choose the passage. You can also supply a product image, dialogue or an audio passage. Review the duration, resolution and exact quote before starting the video generation.

Will every image and video be identical?

No. References guide identity and appearance, but AI generation can change faces, clothing, movement or products. Review each result, especially character-sheet angles and product details.

How much does Character Studio cost?

The app shows the current quote before generation. Image outputs and Recast are priced separately. Image resolution, video duration, input passages and video resolution can affect the amount; a changed setup needs an updated quote.
