The era of Generative Video (Sora, Runway Gen-2) requires a new skillset: 4D Understanding (Time). Static prompts won't work.
Motion Syntax
Use specific camera parameters to prevent static or weirdly morphing videos:
- Pan Right/Left: Camera slides horizontally following subject.
- Truck In/Out: Camera physically moves forward/back (not lens zoom). Gives parallax effect.
- Motion Scale (1-10): How much movement in video. Careful, high values often break anatomy.
Pro Tip: Describe specific actions. Not 'People walking', but 'Crowd bustling, brisk walking pace, fabric flowing in wind'.
