Stable Diffusion XL
Overview
The Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL) Integration in ACT 3 AI enables creators to generate high-quality, photorealistic or stylized still images that can be used as storyboard panels, set backgrounds, concept art, or even as textures in Blender projects. This integration is ideal for detailed previsualization and creative experimentation before committing to full video rendering.
Key Capabilities
- High-Resolution Image Generation: Produce images up to 2048×2048 pixels for detailed visual concepts.
- Prompt-Based Styling: Describe the desired look, mood, or subject, and SDXL will generate matching visuals.
- Style Consistency: Apply custom models or LoRA files to maintain a consistent aesthetic across assets.
- Image-to-Image Mode: Transform existing images into new variations while preserving composition.
- Batch Output: Generate multiple variations from a single prompt for faster selection.
How to Use
- Open Editor or Storyboard Panels view.
- Select **AI → Stable Diffusion XL** from the AI tools menu.
- Enter your prompt, including style, setting, lighting, and subject details.
- Optionally upload a base image for Image-to-Image transformation.
- Adjust resolution, seed, and model settings as needed.
- Click **Generate** and review results in your asset library.
Pricing & Credits
- SDXL image generation uses credits based on resolution and number of variations.
- Example: 1024×1024 image = 0.5 credits; 2048×2048 image = 1 credit.
- Image-to-Image mode costs the same as text-to-image generation.
Tips & Best Practices
- Be descriptive—include camera style, lighting, colors, and mood in prompts for best results.
- Use consistent keywords across multiple prompts to keep your project visually cohesive.
- For scene matching, start with an Image-to-Image workflow using reference frames from your shots.
- Save your favorite prompts for reuse in future projects.
Common Use Cases
- Generating storyboards quickly before animating.
- Creating set designs for fantasy, sci-fi, or period pieces.
- Producing concept art for character outfits and props.
- Making textures and backgrounds for Blender scenes.
