Higgsfield Canvas

Higgsfield Canvas — Node-Based Production Workspace

Canvas is a node-based editor where prompts, references, and generations from any Higgsfield model live on a single infinite board. Instead of running each generation in isolation, you connect nodes — a prompt feeds an image, an image feeds a video, a style branches into variations — so a whole scene or campaign becomes one continuous, re-runnable pipeline.

Canvas is its own top-level surface in the Higgsfield nav bar (alongside Image, Video, Cinema Studio, Marketing Studio). It is model-agnostic: it hosts the other models rather than being a mode inside any one of them, so this sub-skill routes model-specific craft back to the relevant sibling sub-skill.

Why Canvas matters for this skill. Canvas is another place to deploy the prompts this skill builds inside the Higgsfield workflow — instead of taking a finished prompt straight to the Image/Video generator or Cinema Studio, you drop it into a Prompt node on the board and wire it into a generator. The prompt-craft is identical (MCSLA scene prompts, Seedance prompt modes, GPT Image 2.0 formats — all still apply); Canvas just changes where the prompt is executed and lets one prompt feed a multi-step pipeline. Think of the Prompt node as the on-canvas home for everything the rest of this skill teaches.

1. When to use Canvas

Reach for Canvas when the work is a pipeline, not a single shot:

• A multi-shot scene or episode where one reference set drives several shot prompts.
• An ad campaign that fans one product/brand reference into many variants.
• A storyboard that flows assets → story beats → prompts → image/video generation in columns.
• Any repeatable pipeline you want to save as a template and re-run with swapped inputs.

For a single prompt-and-generate, the standard Image/Video tabs are simpler. Canvas earns its keep when steps connect.

2. Node categories

A node is one step in the pipeline with typed input sockets (left) and a typed output socket (right); curved edges carry data from one node's output into the next node's input. The board exposes these node categories:

• Prompt — text starting points.
• Image generator — produces or edits images.
• Video generator — produces video.
• Voice / audio generator — produces voice or audio.
• LLM assistant — a wired-in language model you can task with prompt drafting or shaping (e.g. a "cinematographer-prompter" role inside a storyboard). It is a general LLM node you author, not a fixed named assistant. (Separate from Higgsie, the in-Canvas chatbot — that's a conversational helper, not part of the prompt-to-generator pipeline this sub-skill covers.)
• Style / motion — style-transfer and motion-control steps that branch a look or movement across downstream nodes.
• Render output — final deliverables.
• References — Upload (drop in your own files) and Assets (pull from your library).

Connections are type-aware: an image output feeds an image input, a prompt feeds a generator, and so on. Fan-out (one node feeding many) is free-form; fan-in is more structured.

3. Models that run inside Canvas

All seven Higgsfield models run as nodes on the same board:

Mixing models on one board is the point — generate a character in Soul, edit a product in Nano Banana Pro, animate the result in Seedance, all in one graph.
