Free guide ยท from the reel

3 free sites for AI camera moves.

Most AI videos look flat because the prompt describes the scene and forgets the camera. These three sites give you the camera language: what each move looks like, and the exact words to paste.

The one from the reel first, then the two I use alongside it.

Camera Movement AI Prompts

aicameramovements.com ยท the one from the reel

A library of 46 camera moves in 7 categories: dolly and tracking, zoom and lens, drone and crane, pan and tilt, physical moves, handheld, and specials like the earth zoom-out.

  • Live preview on every card, so you see the move before you use it.
  • One prompt per move, one click to copy. Each prompt spells out the movement, the speed, the framing and how the shot ends.
  • Camera only. The prompt describes the camera, not the scene, so you can reuse it on any shot.

How to use them

Same idea on all three sites: your scene and the camera are two separate pieces.

1Write your sceneWho or what is in the shot, where, and the light. No camera words yet.
2Paste a camera move after itPick the move on one of the sites, watch the preview, copy its prompt.
3GeneratePaste the whole thing into your video model. Keep the camera part and swap the scene for your next shot.

Template[Your scene: subject, place, light, mood.] Camera: [paste the camera move you copied]

Write your own camera move

Every good camera prompt answers the same four questions. Use this when the move you want isn't on any list.

1MovementWhat the camera physically does: push in, pull back, circle, rise, follow.
2SpeedHow fast and how smooth: slow and steady, quick snap, handheld wobble.
3FramingWhat stays in frame and where: subject centered, horizon level, face readable.
4EndWhere the shot lands: a tight close-up, a wide reveal, a new subject.
Fill in the blanks[move name]. Movement: [what the camera does]. Speed: [how fast and how smooth]. Framing: [what stays in frame and where]. End: [the final composition].
๐Ÿ’กKeep it to one move per shot. Two moves in one prompt (an orbit and a zoom) usually gets you neither.
