Medium shot
A medium shot frames a subject from roughly the waist up, close enough to read expression and wide enough to show gesture and setting. It is the workhorse of dialogue and interview coverage. Build one from a prompt in Morphic and animate it with Image to Video.
Medium shots you can generate
When to use a medium shot
Dialogue coverage
The default frame for two people talking, close enough for expression while keeping hands and posture in play.
Talking-head and social video
Waist-up framing reads naturally on a phone screen and leaves room for captions without covering the face.
Showing a task
When the hands matter as much as the face, a medium shot keeps both in frame without cutting to an insert.
Grounding a character
Enough of the setting stays visible to say where someone is, without handing the scene over to the location.
