Generate realistic camera-angle variations of a talking-head avatar from a single reference frame, reusing the gpt-image-2 skill. Produces the SAME person, outfit, room and lighting seen from a different virtual camera position (push-in, pull-out, low/high angle, three-quarter, Dutch tilt, off-center negative space for captions) so a reel can "cut" the camera every 4-8s while the speaker keeps addressing the lens. Each still then drives a lip-synced clip (seedance-2 / VEED Fabric). Use when…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Avatar Camera Angles

Turn **one** still of a person talking to camera into a set of **realistic
camera-angle variations** of the *same* recording — same face, same outfit,
same room, same light, only the virtual camera moves. Built for vertical reels
where the shot cuts every 4–8 seconds while the speaker keeps talking to the
lens (the exact pattern seen in real talking-head reels).

This skill is a **thin wrapper around the `gpt-image-2` skill**. gpt-image-2
preserves a reference image's identity at high fidelity; this skill adds the
prompt engineering that turns that into a believable camera move instead of a
new portrait.

## Why it works (validated recipe)

Each prompt is assembled from three parts:

1. **Fixed identity/scene block** — locks the subject, wardrobe, background
   props, and lighting so the result reads as another frame of the same video.
2. **Camera slot** — the single thing that changes, from the move catalog.
3. **Framing anchor** — stops the model's main failure mode: drifting wider /
   looser than the source. Most moves keep a tight chest-up frame; `pull_out`
   and the `negative_space_*` moves override the anchor on purpose.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add puntorigen/avatar-skills/avatar-camera-angles@sha256:70a302cdb7a4c7e6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260717.a87eb1b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
