Taming AI Video with Restrained Camera Language: A Short Film Retrospective
magratheya_64 · reddit · 2026-09-30
The author finished episode 2 of the Remainder AI short-film series, deliberately working around AI video's weaknesses: no forced complex acting or fast action, mostly side/frontal/overhead shots, with the sequence built around walking, blocking, environment, and one simple physical action. The story: Rima must manually isolate a flooded sector, removing Central's presence there. Most I2V work was done in ComfyUI with LTX and MiniMax H3, with heavy iteration on timing, character consistency, and deciding what not to animate. The author is still learning where the approach works and asks for feedback on pacing and exposition-free storytelling.
