Camera Movement

This is a video of Pan camera movement. This camera movement has a general impact on the scene as it sets up the preparation of what maybe leaving from that scene. The stimulus maybe leaving for a long or short period of time but either way this camera movement puts us, as the audience, in the position of the person who is saying bye to the stimulus. As an audience it generates us to have the same feelings and emotions that maybe running through the actor/actresses mind during the upsetting moment of the stimulus leaving. This camera angle doesn't show any close facial expressions, body language or make up therefore we are unable to see what the character who is leaving is feeling due to their facial expressions and body language. 



This is an example image of track camera movement. This allows the camera to zoom in from a distance, when it is zoomed in to its full potential it makes the audience understand what they should have been paying attention on. For example, if there was two men at a table talking then once the camera zooms in by moving forward then the centre of attention could be a gun in one of the mans pocket. This then changes the mood of the audience from a relaxed and ordinary talk with a man to a threatening and dangerous situation that they maybe in. This camera movement is effective as it guides the audience into paying more attention and realising how moods and scenarios can change by one object. This camera movement also focuses on the facial expressions, costume, hair and make up of the actor/actresses as the camera is slowly moving closer to them.




This is an example of tilt camera movement. Tilt is able to tilt up or tilt down, this would be useful as it can change what the main focus is on the screen. It is useful to use the tilt up and down as it allows us as the audience to view the whole image of a person or object. By showing the whole image of a person or object then this will help to judge a character or object fully as one certain section maybe perfectly normal but the other two sections may create a bad image or negative stereotype of this person or object. Therefore, this camera movement is able to represent and provide the true reflection of a person or object.
