Focal length (measured in mm) changes how wide or zoomed-in the camera sees the scene.
In prompts, focal length helps describe the overall “camera view” and how the subject relates to the background.
Shot angle describes where the camera is placed and the direction it’s pointing relative to the subject.
In prompts, shot angle sets the viewer’s point of view and strongly affects mood and storytelling.
Depth of field is the zone that looks sharp in front of and behind your focus point.
In prompts, depth of field is a simple way to control background blur and how “cinematic” the image feels.
Three-point lighting is a classic studio setup used to get clean, controllable results with clear subject separation.
In prompts, three-point lighting helps describe a professional studio look and how shadows and highlights should behave.
Aspect ratio is the shape of the frame (the relationship between width and height). It changes composition and where the viewer’s attention goes.
In prompts, aspect ratio sets the canvas for the image so the framing matches where it will be viewed.
