Camera movement and editing

Three aspects of camera movement 1. Tilt - The camera tilted downwards from the screen to the person, focusing on a different subject.

Handheld camera can add urgency, realisation, pace or unease to a scene. 3. Crane shot - Camera attached to crane pan, track or 'swoop' in or out as required. Crane shots are often high angle and show large epic scenes or dramatic action. Two aspects of editing 1. Cut - When a camera shows a scene and automatically changes from one to another. 2.

The Summer I Turned Pretty 7) What device or subscripti...
