Projects are the structural backbone of Scenographist.
They define where ideas live, how they evolve, and how context is preserved over time.
Understanding how projects work will help you stay organized, iterate effectively, and maintain narrative clarity.
Projects as Design Containers
A project is more than a folder.
It is a living design environment.
Each project holds:
- A continuous chat conversation
- All uploaded references
- Generated scenes and variations
- Iterative refinements and decisions
This continuity allows the system to understand intent across time.
Persistent Context
Unlike one-off prompts, projects preserve context.
This means:
- Earlier decisions influence later outputs
- You can refer back to previous scenes
- Iterations remain coherent
- Narrative logic stays intact
You can say:
- “Go back to the second version”
- “Refine the lighting from earlier”
- “Keep the same scale as before”
The project remembers.
Projects vs. Variations
Use a single project when:
- Exploring multiple variations of the same idea
- Refining one narrative direction
- Moving from concept to production
Create a new project when:
- The story or purpose changes
- You switch to a new client or production
- You want a clean conceptual break
Think of projects as worlds, and variations as paths within them.
Long-Term Evolution
Projects support long-term thinking.
Over time, a project may:
- Start as a loose concept
- Develop into a spatial language
- Gain technical precision
- Become production-ready
Nothing is lost — earlier versions remain accessible.
Collaboration & Handover (Conceptual)
Projects are designed to support:
- Clear communication of intent
- Review and comparison of directions
- Smooth transition to production teams
Even when shared, a project retains:
- Narrative clarity
- Design rationale
- Decision history
Naming and Structure Best Practices
- Use descriptive, intent-driven names
- Avoid generic titles like “Test” or “New Concept”
- Keep related explorations together
- Archive finished projects instead of deleting them
Mental Model
If chat is the conversation,
and prompts are the language,
projects are the memory.
They ensure that spatial ideas grow with coherence, intention, and depth.
