 In interactive storytelling, strong visuals help bring characters to life and reinforce the tone of the story world. DALL·E, integrated through Azure OpenAI, enables creators to generate custom character portraits using descriptive text prompts. This lesson guides learners through writing effective prompts, refining generated images, and aligning portraits with the narrative style of their story.
