Action Choreography Camera Logic

Action Choreography Camera Logic

Use this skill when motion clarity matters more than random spectacle.

Core Rules

• Define who attacks, who reacts, where momentum travels, and where the camera sits.
• Preserve left-right travel, eyelines, and attack direction unless the disorientation is intentional.
• Tie each camera move to one tactical reason: reveal threat, follow force, absorb impact, or trap the subject.

Coverage Rules

• Alternate orientation, impact, and recovery beats.
• Use wider shots to establish geography, then medium/close beats for impact detail.
• If the sequence is chaotic, keep one stable anchor: axis, landmark, or hero movement direction.

Transformation / VFX Beats

• Break the event into readable phases: onset, spread, rupture, aftermath.
• Let the camera either orbit the change or lock down and let the body distort inside frame.

Avoid

• contradictory camera verbs
• impact with no anticipation or recovery
• unreadable geography
