The document defines and describes different types of camera movements used in film including pan, tilt, zoom, track, dolly, crane, steadicam, handheld. These camera movements allow filming scenes from different angles and perspectives.

1. Camera Movements
• To develop an
understanding of
camera movements
used within film.

2. Camera Movements
• Pan: the camera body stays in one
position, but the lens swings from side to
side, to follow motion across the scene, or
to sweep across a very wide scene.

3. Camera Movements
• Tilt: the camera body stays in one position,
but the lens sweeps from the top to bottom
of a scene, or bottom to top.
• Zoom: changing the lens to increase or
decrease the size of an image.

4. Camera Movements
• Track: moving the whole camera (usually
on a track), usually to follow action.

5. Camera Movements
• Dolly: moving the whole camera on a
wheeled base.

6. Camera Movements
• Crane: moving the whole camera on a
crane, so that it can move up, down, and
nearer to or further from a subject, all in
one shot

7. Camera Movements
• Steadicam: the
whole camera is
“worn” by the
camera operator,
so that they can
run or walk with it.
A suspension
system keeps it
fairly steady.

8. Camera Movements
• Handheld: the camera is held by hand by
a moving person. The picture is very
unsteady.

9. Camera Movements
• To develop an
understanding of
camera movements
used within film.
