AI Video Depth of Field Prompts

Focus should support the story beat. Define which plane starts sharp, which plane ends sharp and whether the camera itself moves.

Shallow focus

Separate subject from background with a narrow focus plane.

Deep focus

Keep foreground, subject and environment readable.

Rack focus

Shift attention from one plane to another over time.

Focus pull with static camera

Useful when camera motion would make the effect harder to control.

Prompt structure

Reusable cinematography template

Start with focus on [foreground/background subject], hold [camera state], shift focus gradually to [target], keep composition unchanged.
