Upload and Generate Images

Start an Image node from an upload, an asset, a prompt, or connected references.

What this tool does

This is the basic Image node workflow. You either bring in an existing image or generate a new one on the canvas.

Start from an upload

  1. Add an Image node.
  2. Choose an image from your device.
  3. Wait for the upload to finish.
  4. Check that the subject and framing are clear.
  5. Use the image as a reference, edit source, or first frame for video.

Start from Assets

  1. Add or select an Image node.
  2. Choose Assets.
  3. Pick an image asset.
  4. Apply it to the node.

Use this when you already have a reusable character, product, scene, or style reference.

Generate from a prompt

  1. Select an Image node.
  2. Write a direct image prompt.
  3. Choose the model and visible settings.
  4. Set aspect ratio, resolution, and image count if shown.
  5. Click Generate.
  6. Keep the strongest result.

What to check

Before using the image for video, check:

  • subject clarity
  • framing
  • unwanted objects
  • style consistency
  • whether it should be saved to assets

Next step

Repair the image with Crop, Rotate, and Flip or continue to Image to Video.
