Setting a visual style for the project

Choose a look for the whole film. New generations inherit it, and any shot can override it.

A visual style keeps a film looking like one film. It applies to every new generation in the project unless a shot sets its own.

Choose a style

  1. In Production, open the style control in the composer.
  2. Choose one of the preset looks. Each shows a live preview.
  3. Or choose Custom look and describe it: a written description, with optional facets for lighting, colour, atmosphere and camera, and references.

How it applies

  • New generations inherit the project’s style.
  • Any shot can override it with its own.
  • Earlier takes keep the style they were made with. Changing the style never alters work that already exists.

Plans

A persistent project visual style is part of Writer and Director.
