What website is this?
Soul Cinema is a cinematic still-image generator in the browser. You describe light, lens, and grade the way you would brief a shot, and you get stills, not video. The console lists what it will render before credits are spent. Soul ID can lock one face and wardrobe across up to six frames. There is no free tier; you pay before you generate. It fits look development, posters, and character-consistent still sets. It is a poor fit if you need a moving picture or pixel-exact drawing.
Key Features
- Write subject, light, lens, and grade in shot language, then render a still.
- Soul ID locks a face and wardrobe reference across up to six frames in one set.
- Palette lock can pin a requested hex value so a re-render at another angle is less likely to drift.
- More than forty presets bind lens, light, grain, and palette.
- Exports keep the model's output size, with no re-encode and no watermark; Basic tops out at 4K, Pro/Max at 8K.
- Before charging, the console lists resolution, whether Soul ID is on, and this run's cost.
Use Cases
- A director or art lead renders two grades of the same set before a shoot to compare night exterior or interior light.
- A music or stage project needs cover or live stills that keep crowds, instruments, and wardrobe readable.
- Advertising or publishing needs key art or posters where close-up, wide, and reverse still read as one person.
- Fashion or beauty delivers stills where skin, fabric, and metal stay distinct for a client.
Who is it for?
- Creators and pre-vis teams who want cinematic stills, a stable cast across frames, and can pay a subscription.
- People who need 8K, unlimited Soul ID casts, and a priority queue (Pro); batch sequences and a commercial licence for client work (Max).
- A poor fit if you only want one free test image: the pricing page states there is no free tier and no free credits.
- A poor fit if you need motion: the site separates stills vs movement and Soul v2; this product outputs images.
How It Compares to Similar Tools?
Against a generic text-to-image box, this flow plans light and palette first, then locks the cast, instead of one lucky roll. Against a video model, it does not generate motion. Plan differences are credits, max resolution, Soul ID cast count, how many looks you get, batching, queue priority, and whether a commercial licence is Max-only. Annual billing lowers the effective monthly rate; unused credits do not roll over by default.
FAQs
Q: Is there a free trial?
A: No. Basic starts at $12/month and can be canceled any time. You sign in with Google, pick a plan, then generate.
Q: What does Soul ID lock, and how many frames per set?
A: It locks a face and wardrobe reference, up to six frames per set. You can re-render one frame without remaking the whole set.
Q: What export resolution, and how many credits per frame?
A: Basic up to 4K, Pro/Max up to 8K, no watermark. The home page both showed a sample of 2 credits per 4K frame and wrote 1 credit per frame. Use the cost the console shows before generate.
