Introduction to Camera Movement

Camera Movement

 Camera movement is how the camera moves intentionally in space and time. It makes effects and shape within the film. in film it makes dynamics and makes scenes more interesting and natural. The cameraperson or cinematographer moves the camera in a film. Bong Joon-Ho and David Lynch are 2 people who are famous in the film industry. Bong Joon-Ho is a South Korean film director that made "Parasite" in 2019, "Memories of Murder" in 2003, and "Barking Dogs Never Bite" in 2000. David Lynch is a filmmaker and actor that worked on/ in "The Straight Story" in 1999, "What Did Jack Do?" in 2017, and "Mulholland Drive" in 2001.

    Before this lesson I knew about zooming in and zooming out. They are two of the most common in films. They can differ depending on the context (slowing zooming in or out and quickly zooming in or out.) I recognize because it is usually zooming in slowly on someone's face or zooming out on an establishing shot. 

    This chart was a representation of the12 camera movements we were presented. We had to analyze and explain what one each was. We gave the name of the movement, the definition of the movement, and the three key points on each.
