What each block does
| Block | Purpose |
|---|---|
| scene | Where it happens: location, time of day, weather, mood of the space. |
| camera | Shot framing and movement. One movement per clip reads best on every current model. |
| lighting | Light source, quality and shadow behavior. The single highest-leverage block for realism. |
| style | Aesthetic direction: film stock, color palette, references, tone. |
