PRELIMINARY EXERCISE

Camera Movements

Here are some camera movements that i would consider using in my two minute film. These camera shots would be great to use because i think they would compliment the genre of my film by allowing to me film my scenes

Camera Pan

A pan is a horizontal camera movement in which the camera moves left and right about a central axis. This is a swiveling movement, i.e. mounted in a fixed location on a tripod or shoulder.

This type of camera movement will allow me to show the viewer different views of the content within a shot.

It would be great to use for an establishing shot showing an overall view of the environment within the scene. It is important that my pans should be smooth and seamless.

Zoom Shot

Zooming means altering the focal length of the lens to give the illusion of moving closer to or further away from the action.

This shot could be used to emphasize the importance of something in a scene of my film by allowing the viewer to see it from a distance and suddenly having a full blown image of it before their eyes , exposing the object or person for all to see.


Follow Shot

The follow shot follows the subject ot action. The following distance is usually kept more or less constant.

This could be done with Hand-held follow-shots , but unfortunately this would be shakey and unsteady.


Pedestal Shot

A pedestal shot means moving the camera vertically with respect to the subject. This is often referred to as "pedding" the camera up or down.
