Material

Pick a material from a 66-entry catalog (silk, leather, metal, glass, marble, …). Emits a material-descriptor prompt fragment.

Overview

The Material parameter node describes the dominant surface or substance featured in a generation — silk, leather, brushed metal, frosted glass, marble, velvet, etc. Each entry encodes light-interaction behavior (specular, matte, refractive, translucent). Injected into the consumer’s prompt via the cinematography handle.
