Purpose

Props keeps recurring objects consistent. It is most useful for hero props, scene-specific objects that drive action, and items that need to appear across shots or sequences.

Inputs

• Script Supervisor breakdowns: source for scene-object extraction and continuity notes.
• Locations and style: provide world context so props do not look isolated from the project design language.
• Asset Browser references: approved prop images can be reused in storyboard and video prompts.

Workflow

1. Review automatically identified props after Breakdowns finish.
2. Promote important props into detailed records with physical description, material, state, and scene usage.
3. Generate or upload reference images for hero props.
4. Attach approved references to storyboards or generator runs where the object must remain consistent.
5. Update notes if a prop changes state across scenes.

Field Guidance

• Description: describe shape, scale, materials, markings, wear, and distinctive details.
• Scene usage: record which scenes need the prop and how it is handled.
• Continuity notes: track damage, ownership, location, or state changes.
• Reference prompt: keep it object-focused so generation does not invent a full unrelated scene.

Troubleshooting

• If a generated prop changes shape between shots, use the same approved reference asset rather than only repeating text.
• If a prop appears in the wrong scene, verify the selected scene filter before saving.
• If the page is empty, rerun or refresh Breakdowns before manually adding every item.

Controls and Functions

Control	Function	Output
Prop list	Shows extracted or manually added important objects.	Select a prop to edit its production and continuity details.
Scene usage controls	Connect a prop to scenes where it appears or changes state.	Scene-linked props can guide storyboard and generation prompts.
Description fields	Capture material, scale, color, wear, markings, and distinctive shape.	Better object prompts and more consistent generated references.
Reference generation	Creates object-focused images for hero props.	Generated references are stored as project assets.
Upload/select reference	Attaches existing media to a prop.	Use approved references when visual consistency matters.
Save/regenerate	Persists edits or refreshes prop extraction from script context.	Save before using prop references downstream.
