A small film school for the AI age
Dolly and Light
Direct the machine like a cinematographer.
AI video tools will make anything you ask for. The trick is asking like a director: where the camera stands, how it moves, and where the light comes from. Here you learn the words, one move and one light at a time.
Every film starts with two choices: how the camera travels, and where the light falls.
Three ways in
All free. No sign-up.
The Lexicon
Camera moves, shot sizes, lenses, light and cuts. What each one means, what each one feels like.
The Prompt Slate
Pick a shot size, a move and a light. Get a clean, director-grade prompt to paste into your video tool.
The Films
Short films, each built around one camera move or one light, with the full prompt shown at the end.
Coming soon
Prompt packs and a printable shot-list guide for AI filmmakers. Also an occasional letter with one new shot to try. None of it exists yet. We are still lighting the set.
Nothing to sign up for yet. Nothing is collected here.
