AI Video Lens Prompt Guide

Many models respond to familiar cinematography language, but lens terms work best when paired with the visible effect you want.

Wide-angle look

More environment, stronger perspective and spatial depth.

Natural / normal perspective

Balanced proportions with minimal stylization.

Telephoto look

Compressed background and isolated subject.

Macro

Tiny detail and shallow focus at close range.

Anamorphic-style framing

Use only when the model responds well to the aesthetic; specify the visual effect, not just the label.
