# Color palette

> A color palette is the restricted set of hues a piece is graded toward — neon noir, warm film, bleach bypass. Committing to one is what makes separate shots look like one piece of work.

Consistency of colour does more for coherence than consistency of subject. A set of clips shot on different engines will still read as one film if they share a palette; a set that shares a character but drifts in colour will not.

It is also the cheapest thing to fix, because it is a property of the prompt rather than of the render.

## On eroq

Twelve palettes in the director's rack — Neon noir, Candy pop, Warm film, Nostalgic blue, Emerald, Pastel dawn, Monochrome, Sepia, Industrial fog, Twilight, Blood & gold, Bleach bypass — folded into the prompt server-side. In Film mode the palette is part of the shared look, so every scene inherits it.

## FAQ

### How do I keep several clips looking like one film?

Fix the palette and the lighting once and apply them to every clip. In Film mode the look is shared across scenes by design, so you set it at the top rather than per shot.

### Can I use my brand colours?

Describe them in the prompt — the palettes are presets, not a limit. Naming two or three specific colours works better than naming five.

### Does the palette survive a change of engine?

Broadly, yes, because it is folded into the prompt text every engine reads. Exact rendition still varies between engines, which is why one palette across a set matters more than matching them shot for shot.
