Model pair: LTX and Wan

The docs of LTX and Wan part on 3 of the six camera points: framing, frames and negative prompt. They read alike on camera moves, cuts and motion amount. As of 2026-09-25.

Inclusion rule. The six points every model on the register is read on. Order. The order the points take on every model page.

1How the two differ

LTX reads “Several keyframes” on start and end frames, while Wan reads “First and last frame” on start and end frames. Only Wan documents a negative prompt field. LTX's docs use 0 of the site's camera words and Wan's use 15, with none in common.

2The differing points, in the docs' words

Shot sizes and angles in the docs

Match the level of detail to the shot scale (close-ups need more detail than wide shots)

LTX, prompting guide

Aesthetic control: Includes light source, lighting environment, shot size, camera angle, lens, and camera movement.

A negative prompt

LTX: the docs read do not cover this.

Use negative_prompt to exclude the "flower" element and prevent it from appearing in the video.
