Camera movement is one of the most important and effective visual communication devices in all of cinema. Even the slightest of movements can create an entirely new idea, changing the way we perceive a moment. Now days, the camera can pretty much move in every single direction imaginable. And combined with digital effects, the camera can venture into impossible locations.
At the end of the day, however, there are four basic, core camera moves that every film lover (and potential filmmaker) should be familiar with: the pan, the tilt, the boom, and the dolly. While these movements are all rather simple, they are extremely effective when used correctly. This video breaks down not only what each movement is, but what they can convey.
If you liked this video, take your technical knowledge up a notch and add the zoom, zolly, and focus pull to your repertoire! Whether you want to make a movie or just impress your friends at the next movie night, we have your back.
