One still, one purposeful motion clip
Direct the motion
Choose one readable action and one camera move before creating the clip.
Protect what matters
Treat faces, product shape, logos, and composition as priorities, then review the result for drift.
How it is made
Decide what moves and what stays
Build a compact treatment around the subject, one visible action, one camera move, pacing, and must-keep details.
Set one readable action · Choose one primary camera move · Carry must-keep visual details into review
Check the motion, not just the first frame
Review subject stability, camera coherence, pacing, and destination fit before planning one focused revision.
Compare the clip with the source · Report visible drift honestly · Change only the lever that needs work
