# Scenes & poses

> Set where your model is shot and how they're standing, from a large preset library or your own reference photos.

**Shot settings** control the background and body position of a shot: **Set scene** for the location, and **Pose** for how the model is standing. Both work the same way — a large preset library, plus a way to bring your own reference.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Pick a preset scene">
    Click **Set scene** (it shows the current background, e.g. "Beige studio") to open **Select background** — roughly 25 preset locations spanning studio backdrops, European architecture, city streets, and interiors, filterable by **All**, **Saved**, or **Personal**.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Use your own background">
    Click **Create new background** to upload a photo of your own location, or pick from images you've generated before. This is upload-only — there's no text-to-image option for backgrounds, so you need an actual photo or an existing creation to work from.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a preset pose">
    Click **Pose** (it shows the current pose, e.g. "Arms crossed stand") to open **Select Pose** — roughly 90 preset poses covering standing, sitting, walking, and back-view shots, filterable by **All**, **Saved**, **My poses**, **Female**, or **Male**.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Replicate a pose from a reference photo">
    Click **Create Custom Pose**, the first tile in the grid, to upload a photo of the pose you want the model to replicate. Like backgrounds, this is a bring-your-own-reference flow rather than a text description.

<Note>
  You can also skip both pickers and describe the shot yourself in the optional **Describe your shot** text field, right below Set scene and Pose.
