Prompt tips

  • Specify motion explicitly: e.g., “slow dolly in”, “camera orbit”, “subtle head turn”.

  • Mention shot specifics when important: camera framing, lens feel, lighting, and duration.

  • Use seed for repeatable variants or test different seeds to explore diversity.


Safety

Marey is built for professional filmmaking workflows and emphasizes ethical sourcing and legal clarity for commercial use.
