Series bible
Last updated: November 2, 2026
Definition
A series bible is the reference document that keeps a serialized show consistent. It records the premise, a character bible for every recurring role, the home locations, the key props and the rules of the story world, so every episode uses the same faces, rooms and facts instead of reinventing them each time.
How it works in FXI Studio
In FXI Studio, write the bible as one page you paste at the start of every Director Mode project: the premise, three to five recurring characters with a want and a secret each, the home location and the season arc. Bezaleel can help you draft it.
The bible maps onto the studio. Each character becomes a Cast entry with a reference sheet, each set gets a location plate, and each lighting plan is repeated word for word, so episode 6 looks like episode 1.
