# Style Library > The Kagelot Style Library locks one visual style for a project, so every character, location and clip looks like the same film. Pick a ready-made style or copy your own from a few reference images. The Style Library locks one look for your whole project. Once a style is selected, every image and video prompt the AI writes follows it, so your characters, locations and clips all look like the same film. Pick a ready-made style, or copy your own from a few reference images. ![The Style Library with the Image Style tab open: under My styles, a Create your own card and a custom style called Uncanny Caricature 3D, selected.](https://kagelot.com/docs/style-library/my-styles.jpg) *A custom style copied from reference images, selected for the project.* ## How it works - **Image Style** and **Video Style** are two tabs. A project can lock one of each. - The **image style** tells the AI how every still should look: the rendering, the faces, the materials, the light. - The **video style** tells the AI which Seedance prompt grammar and directing approach to use for the project’s clips. - Select a style with **Select Blueprint**. The selected style shows **Deselect Style**, and the AI uses it from the next message on. ## Option 1: pick a ready-made style You don’t have to create a style. The **Kagelot library** already has ready-made styles that work in every project, from painterly and anime looks to photoreal cinema and clay. 1. **Open the Style Library.** Open **Style Library** from the app menu or the tab bar, and stay on the **Image Style** tab. 2. **Look through the Kagelot library.** Scroll below **My styles** to the **Kagelot library**. Hover over a card to see its sample images, or click **Examples** to open them full size. 3. **Click Select Blueprint.** The style is now locked for this project and its button changes to **Deselect Style**. Every image and video prompt the AI writes from now on follows it. 4. **Optional: pick a video style too.** Switch to the **Video Style** tab and select one the same way. It sets how the AI writes and directs the Seedance shots. ## Option 2: copy your own style from reference images 1. **Upload a few reference images in the chat.** Attach three or four images that have the look you want and write “Copy this style.” You can also start from **Create your own** in the Style Library. 2. **Let the AI draft the style.** The AI studies the references and writes the style: how faces, bodies, materials, colour and light should look, so new characters and places come out in that look. 3. **Refine it, then save.** Generate a test character, tell the AI what to change (“less realistic”, “warmer light”) and say **save it** when it looks right. The style appears under **My styles**. 4. **Select it for the project.** Click **Select Blueprint** on the style. Every image and video the AI writes for this project now follows it. > **My styles are private:** Styles you create are private to you. Nobody else can see or use them. If you already have your own prompt rules for a look, **Add Custom Prompt Preset** saves them as a style with a name and a short description. ## Change the style later You can deselect a style or switch to another one at any time. Images and videos you already made keep their look; new prompts follow the new style. If a character came out wrong because of the style, fix the style first, then regenerate the character, so every later image starts from the right look. ## FAQ **Do I have to create my own style?** No. The Kagelot library has ready-made styles. Open the Style Library, pick one and click Select Blueprint. Creating your own from reference images is optional. **How do I keep the same visual style across a whole series?** Select one style in the Style Library. Every image and video prompt the AI writes for the project follows it, and the approved character sheets keep the characters themselves consistent. **Can I copy the style of images I like?** Yes. Upload a few reference images in the chat and ask the AI to copy the style. It writes a style from the look of the images and saves it to My styles. **Can other people see my custom styles?** No. Styles you create are private to you. **What is the difference between the image style and the video style?** The image style sets how stills look. The video style sets how the AI writes the Seedance prompts and directs the shots. A project can lock one of each. **What happens if I change the style in the middle of a project?** New prompts follow the new style. Images and videos you already made stay as they are, so regenerate the character sheets first if you want everything to match. ## See it in a real project - [Bonk & Zuzu tutorial](https://kagelot.com/tutorials/bonk-and-zuzu-ai-cartoon-series): the series style was copied from four reference images - [Watch the style part on YouTube (0:26)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fQPoumj0a8&t=26s): reference images → style → first character --- Source: https://kagelot.com/docs/apps/style-library · Last updated 2026-11-04
