How to Control the Visual Style of Your AI Video in Veespark

Bring your storyboard to life with the perfect vibe

If you want your AI-generated video to feel cinematic, cartoony, or totally on-brand, then Veespark’s Style Setting and Style Reference Intensity tools are exactly what you need. These features give you complete control over how your story looks — without needing a camera or a design team.

This simple guide walks you through what this feature does, how to use it step-by-step, and what kind of visuals you can create with it. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to make your AI videos look like you imagined.

What Does the Style Setting Do in Veespark?

Your video’s visual tone is a big deal. Whether you’re going for a moody short film or a playful animation for social media, the style defines the experience.

Veespark’s Style Setting lets you pick from pre-designed visual directions like Movie, Animation, or Cartoon. You can also upload a reference image — maybe a piece of art or a character concept — to match the mood you want. Then, using Style Reference Intensity, you can dial in just how closely your video visuals follow that reference.

Want just a hint of inspiration? Slide left. Want an exact style match? Slide right. It’s all up to you.

How to Set Video Style in Veespark

Follow these steps to lock in your look.

Step 1: Select Your Character

Open your project in Veespark and head to the Storyboard view. On the left-hand panel, go to Settings → Roles. Here’s where you assign characters and control the project’s overall design.

Step 2: Pick a Video Style

Scroll to the Video Style dropdown. Veespark offers 5 unique styles:

  • Movie — Cinematic, dramatic lighting
  • Animation — Smooth, clean animated style
  • Advertising — Sharp, commercial-ready look
  • Cartoon — Bright and playful with bold lines
  • Black and White Line Drawing — Minimal and sketchy, perfect for stylized projects

Each style gives your characters and scenes a distinct feel.

Step 3: Upload a Style Reference Image

Got a specific look in mind? Maybe it’s a graphic novel panel, a fashion editorial, or a concept sketch — upload it as a Style Reference Image. This tells Veespark: “Make it feel like this.”

Step 4: Adjust the Style Reference Intensity

Just below your uploaded image, use the Style Reference Intensity slider:

  • Slide left for a more subtle inspiration
  • Slide right for full-on style adoption

This slider controls how much your reference image influences the character design and background scenes.

Step 5: Preview and Generate

Once you’re happy with your settings, click Generate. You’ll see the style applied across your storyboard and timeline — keeping everything consistent, clean, and totally on brand.
