How do you direct a multi-shot sequence?
On Higgsfield: Higgsfield also advises blocking the whole scene once in 3D Jutsu and framing each shot from the same geometry to keep spatial continuity.
Without Higgsfield: Start with a short wide shot that clearly defines who is where, so positions hold in the closer shots, and when a scene gets too packed, split it into smaller prompts, one generation each.
Axis: one generation with several shots … one prompt per shot, cut in the edit
Concept: multi-shot prompt
