LoRA on the base model, or an in-context edit from a reference
The strongest route: train a LoRA from 12–20 approved frames and invoke it by trigger word in every prompt. For a lighter setup, an in-context editing model takes a reference image plus an instruction and keeps the subject across edits.
What it is good at
Where it stops
A LoRA is bound to the base model it was trained on. Change base model and you retrain, which is the real switching cost of this route.

The syntax
This is Maya Rao from the cast, rendered into Flux's own syntax. Square brackets are the things only you have.
