THE VIDEO LAB / A PLAN BEFORE A PROMPT
Six shots.
One useful direction.
Choose a starting structure, then challenge the sequence. The planner gives each shot a purpose and suggests camera, light and sound decisions.
Fixed, illustrative planning rules run locally in your browser. No model is called, no footage is generated and your selections are not saved or sent.
Turn the outline into your own work.
Replace generic subjects with a specific, permitted setting and action. Make a rough storyboard or still-frame animatic before attempting every shot. Test one difficult transition, a key action and the intended look. Use the result to revise the plan rather than forcing an unsuitable output into the edit.
For documentary work, do not present invented scenes as records of real events. Agree consent, context and editorial boundaries with participants. For product work, demonstrate only claims the product can support. For fiction, make the world internally coherent and keep rights and likeness permissions clear.
