Crane Up from a Puddle
How do FastH3 V2, Seedance 2.5, Kling 3.0 Turbo and 33 other AI video models handle a camera control prompt? We ran this exact prompt once on each model, with no cherry-picking. Compare all 36 clips side by side and copy the prompt to try it yourself.
A crane move that begins at ankle height beside a puddle on cobblestones, with the reflection of a building visible in the water, then rises smoothly and continuously to a high wide shot looking down on the whole square. Steady speed, no cut, overcast light.
