How do you make separately generated video clips flow naturally in Buda?

Jen

I saw that video generation can return the last frame, and I'd like to use it to start the next clip.

For example, if I'm making three shots of the same product, I'd want its appearance, color, and background to stay consistent. Do you use the last frame of the previous clip to generate the next one, or use the same product image as a reference for every clip?

My main concern is that each clip could look good on its own, but the combined video might look like it features three different products. Has anyone found a reliable approach?

I would use the same clear image of the actual product as a subject reference for every clip, so its color, proportions, logo and material have a stable anchor. When one action must continue into the next shot, also use the previous clip's returned last frame as the next clip's first frame, where the chosen model supports those inputs. Chaining only last frames can carry a distorted detail forward; using only the original product image keeps identity steadier but may not connect motion naturally. Test two short clips before committing to the third.

Ask the Buda Agent for a shot sheet: camera size and direction, details that must not change, background and lighting, and the action at each cut. Keep aspect ratio and color treatment consistent. Inspect every generated clip for product labels and silhouette before continuing; in the final edit, cut on an action or use a brief detail shot to bridge minor discontinuities. Generation cannot guarantee an exact product identity across separately rendered clips, so a person should check product-critical frames.

The video generation guide describes returnLastFrame, reference images and first-frame inputs. Are these three clips one continuous action or three separate scenes featuring the same product? The Chinese discussion covers the same approach.
