Film grammar / Camera movements
Dolly Out
The camera retreats; reveal, isolation or ending.
What it is
A dolly out (pull-back) moves the camera away from the subject. It reveals context the audience did not see, or leaves a character alone in growing space.
When to use it
Ending a scene on a slow pull-back is a classic way to let emotion settle.
How to prompt it
Some models confuse dolly out with zoom out; add "the camera physically moves backward".
Dolly-out, a model in an oversized black coat walking toward camera down a long red corridor, the camera physically moves backward, keeping her centered.
