## Composition techniques

## Camera movements

<CameraTermGallery group="movements" />

<Tip>
  Start with one framing term, one movement term, and one clear subject action.
  Too many camera instructions in a single sentence usually make the shot less
  readable.

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Should I use more than one camera term?">
    Yes, but keep it intentional. `low tracking shot` is clear. `low aerial handheld orbit push-in` usually is not.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What should come first in the prompt?">
    Usually start with the subject and action, then add framing, movement, and style around it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Do I need camera language in every prompt?">
    No. Add it when framing or motion behavior matters. If you leave it out, the model will infer a shot on its own.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Are these full prompts?">
    No. Treat them as reusable camera phrases that you combine with subject, environment, and motion details.
  </Accordion>
