+# AI Stylize
+In the AI Stylize panel, you can select your desired style, input your prompt, and adjust optional settings like style reference and style strength. You'll also find toggles for Sync Lips, Face Detailer, Upscale, Use Cinematic, and Engine PreProcessing. Let's go over what each of these options does.
+
+## Style
+Style refers to the art style or form that the AI-generated output will adopt.
+
+## Prompt
+The prompt field is where you describe what you'd like to see. Entering a prompt guides the AI to generate your desired content—the more detailed, the better.
+
+## Style Reference
+Style reference allows you to influence the AI output by providing an image as reference. 
+
+## Style Strength
+This is how much the AI will influence the final video. A lower style strength will help if you’re experiencing issues with consistency or too much of a “dreamy” look. Try going for a style strength of 0.6 and working your way up from there. 
+
+## Sync Lips
+If toggled on, this will sync the character’s lips to the audio you provide. 
+
+## Face Detailer
+Enabling this adds extra detail to the face to keep it from looking muddy or distorted. 
+
+## Upscale
+Upscale enhances your video's resolution, adding clarity and coherence.
+
+## Use Cinematic
+Toggling this enables a slower workflow with a higher base resolution that automatically upscales, resulting in higher-quality output.
+
+## Engine PreProcessing
+This toggle allows for the most accurate preprocessing by the engine, improving the final output quality at the cost of rendering speed. Avoid using this when working with Image or Video Planes.

+# Characters & Animations
+There are two types of characters and animations: anime and cartoon. You can't mix their animation types. You can upload your own Cartoon characters as long as they’re of Mixamo rigging. 
+
+Anime characters include those from Hololive, Wuthering Waves, Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Punishing Grey Raven, as well as popular MMD dances and a variety of basic animations. You can upload your own MMD motions.
+
+To use a character, go to either the Cartoon or Anime characters list, click on a character and drag them onto the scene. To add an animation, go to the "Animations" tab, drag the animation onto the timeline, and position it at the start. Extend it by dragging the right corner. You can add multiple animations to one character.
+
+To move a character from their original position, select the character, adjust their starting position, and press "Add Keyframe" on the transform panel. Repeat this for the ending position.

+# Image and Video Panels
+Image and Video Panels allow you to import your own images and videos into the studio for 3d manipulation. To access them, go to the “Image & Video Panels” tab on the right hand side of the studio and select either “Image Panels” or “Video Panels” and click “Upload”. 
+
+Once you’ve uploaded your selected media, click on it and drag it onto the scene. You can click to select it and press either T, R or G to adjust position, rotation or scale. Alternatively, you can use the transform panel on the right hand side to adjust it as well. 
+
+You can combine multiple image and video panels to create interesting outputs. 
+Here’s an example of a video generated using image panels and one with video panels:

+# Negative Prompting Guide
+Negative prompting helps remove unwanted elements in your images. To use it, go to the 'AI Stylize' tab, find 'Negative Prompt' and click to expand the panel.
+
+For example, if your character has green hair and you don't want it, enter '(green hair:1.5)' in the negative prompt field. Parentheses emphasize the words, and ':1.5' indicates how strongly to focus on it. A good range is 1.1-1.5. You can also use extra parentheses for emphasis, like '(((green hair)))’.
+
+Here’s an example video of before and after a negative prompt was used. As you can see, -unwanted element- was removed from the generation.

+# Prompt Emphasis
+You can control how much attention is given to certain words in your prompts using parentheses and brackets.
+To emphasize a word, use parentheses. For example, (red hair:1.5) makes 'red hair' more prominent. You can also use more parentheses for extra emphasis, like ((((red hair)))).
+
+To de-emphasize a word, use brackets. For example, [red hair:-1.5] makes 'red hair' less noticeable. You can also use more brackets for extra de-emphasis, like [[[[red hair]]]].
+
+Recommended values are 1.1-1.5 for emphasis and -1.1 to -1.5 for de-emphasis. 
+When using the Negative Prompt Field use positive weights to emphasize the negative effect instead of brackets.
+
+Watch how prompt emphasis highlights -this element-.

+# Saving and Loading Scenes
+To name your scene, go to the top of the studio where it says “Untitled New Scene” (or it may already have a name if it's a remix scene). Click the scene name to edit it. To save the scene, click “File” in the top left corner, then “Save Scene.” The page will reload—this is normal. Be sure to save any changes you make afterward.
+
+To save a copy of your scene, follow the same steps but click “Save Scene as Copy” instead.
+
+To load a scene, click “File” in the top left corner, then “Load my Scene.”
