What is Pan and Tilt in AI Video?

How it works

Pan (horizontal rotation) and tilt (vertical rotation) are fundamental camera movements where the camera rotates from a fixed position. In AI video, these are the most reliably generated camera movements because they are simpler than movements that require changing the camera's position. Most AI video tools can produce convincing pan and tilt movements from text prompts like 'slow pan right' or 'tilt up to reveal'. These movements are staples of product videos, architectural walkthroughs, and establishing shots.
