Camera & Lens

Priority 3 of 6 — sets optical character

Camera and lens fragments name the body, focal length, depth of field, framing, and movement. They set the optical character of the image — how skin renders, how the background compresses, how the viewer moves through the scene.

Name a body and a focal length; add movement only when motion is the point.

Questions

How do I write a camera prompt for AI video?

Name a camera body and focal length ('shot on ARRI Alexa, 35mm lens, shallow depth of field'). Add movement only when motion is the point of the shot.

What does an anamorphic prompt do?

It cues oval bokeh, horizontal lens flares, and a wide 2.39 frame, giving footage a classic widescreen-cinema character.
