Luma just introduced "Camera Motion Concepts" in Dream Machine, giving users precise control over camera movement with over 20 pre-built, cinematic camera motions. These moves can be composed and combined for more dynamic, stylized shots—bringing a new level of directorial control to AI-generated video.
The real innovation here is their new system of “Concepts,” a framework that teaches generative models how to handle complex, layered behaviors like camera motion. This is something every AI video generator should be aiming for—it gives creators the kind of shot control directors have in traditional cinematography.
They’ve even highlighted a standout motion, Bolt Cam, which delivers fast, high-energy camera moves that zip through scenes with real intensity.
I haven’t tried it yet—but it looks pretty awesome, and I’m definitely looking forward to taking it for a spin.
