 "page_title": "How to block out camera moves in 3D before spending generation credits with AI Movie Studiov2",
 "summary": "Plan camera moves in a 3D previs stage, render an MP4, and reuse it as a motion reference.",
 "who": "An indie director or cinematographer who wants to test camera moves and framing before paying for AI generation runs.",
 "problem": "Generating video by trial and error uses up credits and time, and it is hard to plan a camera move from a text prompt alone.",
 "outcome": "A rendered previs clip saved to the project video library that can be used as a motion reference in the Camera Director.",
 "steps": [
  "Open the 3D Camera Previs stage in the app and drop in proxy characters and props.",
  "Press C to enter Camera mode, then hold RMB and use WASD to fly the camera through the shot.",
  "Keyframe the camera on the multitrack timeline and adjust the focal length, aspect ratio, and resolution.",
  "Render the viewfinder to MP4 using the bundled ffmpeg.",
  "Select the saved clip from the project video library as a motion reference in the Camera Director."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the Heroesjouney/AIMovieStudiov2 repo, set up the 3D Camera Previs stage for the scene <scene name> and render the viewfinder to a 16:9 MP4 at 720p. Confirm the rendered file appears in the project video library and report its file name and length.",
