When should I use this move?

Use a dolly to move from the environment toward a subject in a product or story shot. Moving the camera changes foreground and background relationships. Compare the zoom template if you only need a tighter frame.

How to edit and export

  1. Open the template and play it through. Watch the foreground pillar move relative to the background.
  2. Change the final camera position to adjust travel distance. Keep the field of view fixed for this exercise.
  3. Check the middle and end for obstructions, then export previs or continue to AI video generation if needed.

What should I check during playback?

  • Does the camera end too close to or inside the subject?
  • Does the foreground obscure the subject during the move?
  • If the output looks like a zoom, first confirm that the reference camera actually moves.

Do I need an account or payment?

No account is needed to browse guides, examples and template previews. Sign in to edit, export, save projects or use AI in the workspace. No software installation is required.

Manual scene editing, 3D preview playback and previs export are free. Camera practice templates include public preview videos and downloadable scene JSON. AI direction uses director credits; AI video generation uses video credits. These are separate balances. Consult the pricing page and the quote shown before submission for current terms.

Previs expresses framing, space and motion; it does not guarantee a frame-for-frame AI result. Check product shape, text, camera paths and cuts in the generated video.
