完整提示词
Close-Up (CU) CU A close-up, or close up shot, frames a face tightly enough to privilege detail over surroundings, usually head and upper shoulders. The room becomes secondary; the person still reads as a head, not a fragment. Create this Close-Up Narrative function A close-up is a new fact on a face. It is the default for important dialogue because micro-expression, a lie, or a decision can be read without losing the idea of a person. The shoulders keep a little body in the sentence so a swallow or a turned collar still exists. It is the wrong tool when the beat is a hand, a holster, or the door across the room. It is also the wrong tool as a beauty setting on every line: if you live here, coverage becomes a slideshow of heads. Change size when the new scale reveals a fact this crop cannot prove. How it works Bottom frame at the upper chest or clavicle; top just above the hair, with modest Headroom. A 65mm to 85mm at conversation distance is common; the catalog 75mm Cooke is a portrait working length, not a requirement. Shallow Focus will drop the room, but the size is the crop, not the bokeh. Match reverse size if this is dialogue. Prompt: Tight close-up of [Subject], head and upper shoulders. When to use it Use it to read micro-expression on an important line: the moment a person decides not to answer. Do not use it as wallpaper on every sentence, and do not use it when the information is below the chest. Compared with similar shots A Choker Shot cuts off the shoulders and sits on hairline and chin. A Medium Close-Up starts at the chest and still shows dialogue-distance body language. An Extreme Close-Up is a fragment inside the face. Close-up is the portrait size: head plus upper shoulders, not MCU, not choker, not ECU. Medium Close-UpTalk without losing body language. Choker ShotEmotion with nowhere to hide. Extreme Close-UpA detail is the scene: an eye, a mouth, a trigger. In film The Passion of Joan of Arc builds trial pressure from faces that still read as heads, not only fragments. The Silence of the Lambs uses close-ups in the interviews so thought is visible while a little of the body remains. Grammar: the face as the location, with enough shoulder to stay a person. Prompt it Name the anatomy. Example: Tight close-up of [Subject], head and upper shoulders, 75mm, shallow depth of field. Do not write choker, chest up, or a single eye. Keep a sliver of collar or shoulder so the model does not crop inside the face. For video, hold the head; a pull that reveals waist has become a different size. Use in Image Generator Tight close-up of [Subject], head and upper shoulders, shallow depth of field, creamy bokeh, 75mm Cooke, the face as landscape. What usually goes wrong The usual wrong cousin is a Medium Close-Up (too much chest and room) or a Choker Shot (no shoulders). The tell is either a talking-head with a lot of torso, or a face with no neck. Fix: head and upper shoulders only. Another tell is calling any tight face a close-up when you meant ECU. Questions What is Close-Up in film? A close-up is a shot that frames a face or object tightly enough that detail outranks the surroundings, typically head and upper shoulders. It is a size, not a mood, and it still shows a person rather than one isolated feature. Close-Up vs Medium Close-Up A medium close-up starts at the chest and keeps shoulders and some hand language readable at dialogue distance. A close-up is tighter: head and upper shoulders, with the room mostly gone. If you can still see mid-chest and a slice of set, you are in MCU. When should I use Close-Up? Use it when an important line or thought must be read on the face. Do not park every line here, and do not use it when the beat is a hand, a door, or a whole-face prison crop. How do I prompt Close-Up for AI image or video? Write Tight close-up of [Subject], head and upper shoulders. Add a 75mm if you want portrait proportion. For video, hold that crop; do not say close-up if you mean chest-up or hairline-to-chin. Melies can generate this Close-Up Melies is the AI filmmaking workspace. This Close-Up opens with the still prompt loaded, so you generate the coverage at the right camera distance.
