Common camera framing

Side profileWide / full body

Description: A standing face-to-face position with the receiving partner's leg extended high — calf or ankle on the penetrating partner's shoulder — in a near-standing-split.

Variations: Leg on the shoulder or held at full extension in the partner's hand; wall support behind.

On camera: A flexibility showpiece; the vertical leg line dominates the frame.

AI design considerations: One figure with a near-vertical leg extension against an upright partner — the extreme leg angle must stay anatomically plausible at the hip.

Image to video (Thrust (shallow))

short-range reciprocating motion along the body axis, small amplitude, hips leading, camera is locked on a tripod and does not move.

Motion only. The still you condition on must already carry the position, wardrobe and scene: restating them causes drift.

Expected figure count: 2. Global pose conditioning does not make a diffusion model count bodies. Count figures and limbs at full size before judging quality, because thumbnails hide the failure. The tag standing_sex is broader than this position: standing_sex records only that the receiving partner is upright on their feet. Its wiki spans face-to-face and rear-entry, wall-braced and free-standing, one foot or two, and it discards the single leg raised to the penetrating partner's shoulder in a near-standing-split, which is the entire content of this entry.
