Camera move

What the camera does during the shot: static (locked-off), pan, dolly or tracking, handheld, slow push-in.

Why it matters in production

One move per shot, slow, and named in the prompt: “static camera”, “slow dolly in”, “pan left to right”. Without instructions, models add a pull-back or a zoom that breaks continuity. “Locked-off” is the safest request for an archive; handheld, the most believable for a realistic film.
