Expert Usage Tips
Adjust the camera lens focal length (e.g., 24mm vs 200mm) to instantly change the scale and intimacy of the wildlife interaction.
Incorporate specific weather variables like “heavy rain” or “dense fog” to add layers of environmental complexity and realism.
Use the “Music Progression” instruction to dictate the emotional arc, moving from ambient mystery to high-intensity action.
Maintain character consistency by referencing the subject’s unique markings or eye color in every scene description.
For more organic movement, specify “handheld camera” to introduce subtle, realistic micro-vibrations typical of professional field footage.
