About the Composite style

Visual characteristics

Police forensic artist composite sketch in the style of 1985 FBI forensic illustration technique. Pencil or digital rendering with standardized facial features on cream paper. Graphite grey tonal values building up from witness descriptions. Wanted poster aesthetic designed for broadcast distribution and public identification, clean lines on stark white background. Flat even lighting with no shadows, even depth of field across facial feature detail.

Color palette

Colors specified in the preset recipe, not a guarantee for every generated frame.

  • #fff8dc
  • #696969
  • #ffffff

Adapt the preset recipe

Select and copy the recipe below as a starting point. In Storyboard, choose My styles, create a custom style and open Advanced mode. Adapt the wording to your scene and the editor's 1,000-character limit; a Studio preset is not imported automatically. Camera and film references describe the intended look, not equipment used to create the preview or guaranteed animation.

Plan shots in the Composite look

  1. Step 1: Study the visual recipe

    Compare the Composite still preview with the visual notes below. Choose which lighting, palette and framing cues belong in your shot list.

  2. Step 2: Build your storyboard

    Open a new Storyboard, add your script and character references, then choose its style separately. To adapt this recipe, paste it into a custom style in Advanced mode.

  3. Step 3: Review before video

    Review the generated frames for continuity. A still does not specify motion, pacing or audio; plan those as separate decisions for your video.
