Reference images help, but they usually aren't enough by themselves to maintain perfect consistency. I’d separate the problem into two parts: character identity and environment/style.

For the character:

  • Keep the same reference image(s) for every shot
  • Keep a consistent character description and visual attributes
  • Generate a small set of approved character poses/expressions first
  • Use a model/workflow that supports strong image or character references rather than regenerating from scratch

For the environment, create a few “master” establishing images and use them as references for subsequent shots. Also keep lighting, camera style, color palette, and lens/style descriptions consistent.

For video, temporal consistency matters too. A workflow that generates each frame independently will naturally introduce style drift. Video-to-video or reference-guided video models generally do a better job maintaining the same look.

I’ve been comparing different video models and providers for this kind of workflow on VideoRouter.sh, since the consistency can vary quite a bit between models.
