Building and using Characters
Using Characters in Mage Space to improve your creation results and to keep the character consistent between images and videos
Rather than uploading multiple pictures and pointing to the AI exclaiming "that man!", it's much better to create Characters and use these references, especially if you are making multiple references to the same person.
This ensure consistency since the AI would otherwise be "reconstructing" the idea of the person, and there is risk of distortions, especially in critical areas like the face.
You start by clicking on Characters on the left hand side menu. On the main screen, you can see other characters already created and their "@" handle which you can use to call these characters in prompts.
Click "Create New"
Let's create a Character
Upload a photo and make it a good photo. If possible, crop it as much as possible. Before uploading.
if you see the picture cut up into 9 squares and randomised, then this means that the picture will not come out well. So re-crop the picture, omitting as much extra space as possible.
I've uploaded the character "Demon Bear" and provided his name. The system will allocate your character a random handle name which you can call up.
I didn't both with voice since the video models I used don't work with them (only two works with audio), and the audio effects are basic at best.
Keep you character private too, unless you are happy to share with others.
In the prompt bar, we call up the new character by typing "@" and then starting to type "demon bear". It completes the bar through a selection, and we completely the prompt with an action.
Note you can also see the character's image at the bottom next to "fast".
Using your character
The result hit the mark and did have my character performing the action that I did mention.
However, you can also see that it's not completely perfect. He is not completely sitting on the chair as I would have imagined, and that's because I didn't specify this in the prompt.
You can also see that the bear has some of the food close to his mouth. I didn't specify this, but was added anyway. This is all the more reason why the Pro Plus plan helps in dealing with irregularities for free.
