Arc left

The prompt

Scene paragraph A misty forest clearing at dawn, photoreal medieval fantasy. A knight in battered steel plate armor and a dark blue cloak kneels alone in the center of the clearing, head bowed, both hands resting on the hilt of a longsword planted point-down in the grass. Tall pines all around, drifting mist, grey diffused light. Live-action footage shot on 35mm film, real people, natural skin and textures.

Full shot of the knight from a front three-quarter angle at eye level, the camera on a curved track moving along a shallow curve toward screen left around him from the first second, keeping the same distance and height. 0–2s: he kneels with his head bowed as the arc begins. 2–4s: the pines rotate slowly behind him as the angle changes. 4–6s: the angle turns toward his front. 6–8s: it settles facing him straight on as he lifts his eyes to the lens. Throughout: a quarter arc around one subject, one continuous take.
