Source Image is an exposed editable input in Fuser, so you can replace the saved example image with another image before using the recipe\. The resulting Camera Orbit Video will be based on the image you provide\. ### What does the saved example show? The saved example shows the recipe’s Source Image connected to its Camera Orbit Video output\. It demonstrates the saved input\-to\-output setup and is not a live generation or a guarantee of what a new image will produce\. ### What kinds of projects can use the output? The output can serve as a moving\-shot reference for film concepts, pitch materials, storyboard discussions, and other entertainment video planning\. It is most relevant when the intended shot involves an arc around a subject\. ### Does the recipe provide controls for the camera path? The exposed input listed for this recipe is Source Image\.
