# Compose mode

Compose mode is the camera department. Place a camera, set a lens, frame the action, animate. Each shot you create gets its own camera and its own timeline.

## Setting up shots

* [Shots](/compose/shots.md): add, duplicate, delete, reorder.
* [Camera controls](/compose/camera-controls.md): free cam, fine-tune, game-controller support, framing.
* [Lenses](/compose/lenses.md): the lens pack, focal lengths, when to reach for which.
* [Aspect ratios and film gates](/compose/aspect-ratios-and-film-gates.md): film standards plus social formats.
* [Shot details](/compose/shot-details.md): name and description that feed the auto-prompt.

## Camera mechanics

* [Aim Camera and Target](/compose/aim-camera-and-target.md): lock the camera onto a moving subject.

## Animation

* [Animation](/compose/animation.md): keyframes for cameras and pose, smooth interpolation.
* [Timeline](/compose/timeline.md): the sequence timeline view – arrange shots into an edit.
* [Storyboard view](/compose/storyboard-view.md): collapsing scene thumbnails for the high-level layout.
