| **Anamorphic**       | A lens type that produces widescreen cinematic images with characteristic horizontal flares and oval-shaped bokeh.  |
| **Aperture**         | The opening in a lens that controls how much of the image is in focus. Smaller f-numbers = more background blur.    |
| **Aspect ratio**     | The shape of the image, expressed as width:height. 16:9 is widescreen; 9:16 is vertical / social.                   |
| **Bokeh**            | The visual quality of out-of-focus areas in an image.                                                               |
| **Depth of field**   | How much of the image, from front to back, is in sharp focus.                                                       |
| **Dolly**            | A camera move along the ground — forward, backward, left, or right.                                                 |
| **Focal length**     | Measured in millimeters; controls field of view and perspective compression.                                        |
| **Genre**            | A stylistic category that informs lighting, color, and reference material the system uses.                          |
| **Handheld**         | A camera operated by hand, with characteristic small movements.                                                     |
| **IMAX**             | A large-format film camera known for massive resolution and epic scale.                                             |
| **Jib**              | A camera mounted on a crane that moves vertically (up or down).                                                     |

| **Pan**              | A horizontal camera rotation on a fixed axis.                                                                       |
| **Preset**           | A saved combination of camera body, lens, focal length, and aperture — reusable across images and videos.           |
| **Reference media**  | Images or clips you attach to a prompt to influence the style or content of the result.                             |
| **Scene**            | An organizational unit in the timeline. A scene contains one or more shots.                                         |
| **Shot**             | A single continuous piece of footage within a scene.                                                                |

| **Zoom**             | A change in focal length within a shot — optical rather than physical motion.                                       |
