9 CAMERA ANGLE PROMPT

1.WORM’S EYE VIEW

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE. CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE. RE-RENDER FROM A WORM'S EYE VIEW: THE CAMERA RESTING ALMOST ON THE GROUND AT THE SUBJECT'S FEET, POINTING NEARLY STRAIGHT UP, SO THE BODY LOOMS ENORMOUS AND DRAMATICALLY FORESHORTENED, THE UNDERSIDES OF THE CHEST, CHIN AND JAW DOMINANT, THE LEGS LONG AND TOWERING IN THE FOREGROUND, THE FACE SMALL AND FAR AT THE TOP, AND THE SKY OPENING OUT WIDE OVERHEAD. PRESERVE THEIR BUILD, CLOTHING, POSE, AND THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT, EXTENDING THE SKY AND SURROUNDINGS NATURALLY TO FILL THE STEEP UPWARD VIEW.

2.CLOSE-UP

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE. CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA DISTANCE. RE- RENDER AS A CLOSE-UP: THE CAMERA MOVED IN TIGHT SO THE FACE FILLS MOST OF THE FRAME, CROPPED FROM ROUGHLY THE TOP OF THE HEAD TO JUST BELOW THE CHIN, ONLY A HINT OF THE SHOULDERS AT THE BOTTOM EDGE, THE BACKGROUND SOFT AND FAR BEHIND. PRESERVE THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, AND SKIN, KEEPING THE LIKENESS IDENTICAL TO IMAGE 1.

3.HIGH ANGLE

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE, CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE. RE-RENDER THE SCENE FROM A HIGH ANGLE: THE CAMERA RAISED WELL ABOVE THE SUBJECT'S HEAD AND TILTED DOWN TOWARD THEM AT ROUGHLY FORTY-FIVE DEGREES, SO WE LOOK DOWN ONTO THE SUBJECT, SEEING THE TOP OF THEIR HEAD AND SHOULDERS WITH THE BODY FORESHORTENED BELOW AND MORE FLOOR THAN SKY IN THE FRAME. PRESERVE THEIR BUILD, CLOTHING, POSE, AND THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT, EXTENDING THE FLOOR AND SURROUNDINGS ATURALLY TO FILL THE DOWNWARD VIEW.

4.OVER THE SHOULDER

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE. CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE. RE-RENDER AS AN OVER-THE-SHOULDER VIEW: THE CAMERA POSITIONED BEHIND THE SUBJECT AND JUST TO ONE SIDE, FRAMING PAST THE BACK OF THEIR HEAD AND ONE SHOULDER IN THE NEAR FOREGROUND, LOOKING OUT INTO THE LOCATION IN FRONT OF THEM. THE BACK AND SIDE OF THE HEAD AND THE SHOULDER SIT LARGE AND SOFT AT THE EDGE OF FRAME WHILE THE ENVIRONMENT AHEAD READS SHARP AND FILLS MOST OF THE VIEW. PRESERVE THEIR BUILD, CLOTHING, AND THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT, EXTENDING THE SCENE AHEAD NATURALLY TO FILL WHAT THEY ARE FACING.

5.BIRD’S EYE VIEW

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE, CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE. RE-RENDER THE SCENE FROM A TRUE BIRD'S EYE VIEW: THE CAMERA POSITIONED DIRECTLY ABOVE THE SUBJECT, POINTING STRAIGHT DOWN, SO WE LOOK DOWN ONTO THE TOP OF [THEIR HEAD AND SHOULDERS AND THE FLOOR FILLS MOST OF THE FRAME. THE SUBJECT IS SEEN FROM DIRECTLY OVERHEAD, FORESHORTENED, STANDING ON THE GROUND BELOW PRESERVE THEIR BUILD, CLOTHING, AND THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT, EXTENDING THE FLOOR AND SURROUNDINGS NATURALLY TO FILL THE NEW OVERHEAD VIEW.

6.WIDE SHOT

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE. CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE. RE- RENDER THE SCENE FROM VERY FAR BACK AND SLIGHTLY ELEVATED, SO THE SUBJECT OCCUPIES A SMALL PORTION OF THE FRAME AND THE FULL ENVIRONMENT IS VISIBLE AROUND THEM, EXTENDING TO THE FAR EDGES AND THE HORIZON LINE. SHOW THE SURROUNDING SPACE, THE DEPTH LAYERS BETWEEN CAMERA AND SUBJECT, AND THE BACKGROUND LANDSCAPE OR ARCHITECTURE NATURALLY. KEEP THE SUBJECT SHARP AND CLEARLY READABLE AT THAT DISTANCE, HOLDING THEIR ORIGINAL POSE, CLOTHING, AND POSITION WITHIN THE SCENE.

7.REAR VIEW

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE. CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE.

KEEP THEIR ORIGINAL POSE AND POSITION. LET THE ENVIRONMENT OPEN AHEAD OF THEM INTO DEPTH, THE BACKGROUND FALLING GENTLY SOFTER TOWARD THE FAR EDGE OF THE FRAME.

8.PROFILE/SIDE VIEW

USE IMAGE 1 AS THE BASE IMAGE. KEEP THE SAME SUBJECT, THEIR EXACT FACE, HAIR, WARDROBE, AND THE SAME LOCATION, LIGHTING, AND COLOUR GRADE. CHANGE ONLY THE CAMERA ANGLE. PHOTOGRAPH THE SCENE FROM NINETY DEGREES TO THE SUBJECT'S SIDE, THE CAMERA RELOCATED TO THAT NEW POSITION WHILE THE SUBJECT HOLDS THE IDENTICAL POSE AND HEAD DIRECTION FROM THE ORIGINAL FRAME. THE ENVIRONMENT REVEALS WHAT STANDS TO THAT SIDE.

9.DUTCH ANGLE

DUTCH ANGLE SHOT WITH A STRONGLY TILTED HORIZON; THE ENTIRE FRAME ROTATED ABOUT TWENTY DEGREES SO EVERY HORIZONTAL LINE IN THE ENVIRONMENT RUNS AS A CLEAR DIAGONAL AND VERTICALS LEAN WITH IT. FILL ALL FOUR CORNERS WITH CONTINUOUS ENVIRONMENT.
