Inclusion rule. Models whose own docs define the word, list it as a command or preset, or use it in an example prompt. Order. Alphabetical by model name.
1How the docs use it
Google Veo defines it; Higgsfield lists it as a preset.
A word the docs define is one the maker explains to users. A command or preset is one the model is set up to perform on request. A word that appears only in an example prompt is one the maker shows working, without promising more.
The other 22 models' docs do not use it in the pages read: Adobe Firefly, Grok Imagine, HunyuanVideo 1.5, Kling AI, Leonardo Motion 2.0, LTX and others.

2The film language, written for you
Where “Dutch angle” has to be written by hand, SceneMixer's pipeline writes the shots; its guides explain:
Measured across every job that finished successfully on scenemixer.com in the thirty days to 20 September 2026: analysis of a whole book runs about 2 minutes 49 seconds at the median, one episode's storyboard 1 minute 54 seconds, one video segment 3 minutes 20 seconds, and compositing an episode 3 minutes 52 seconds.

SceneMixer writes dialogue into the script analysis, assigns each line to a shot with a speaker and a short delivery note, and the video model performs it — picture and audio generated together, so the mouth forms that sentence in the language you chose.
