Tilt and Panning

Today I have learned some more different kinds of shots such as a panning shot and a tilt shot. I have used a tripod to film the different sorts of shots for a different kind of effect. I had to do a movement painting shot which was where you don't follow the person where they walk.

Panning is where you move the camera left to right and right to left, following the person. This is a good shot because you can tell follow exactly what the person is doing which is a great shot.

Tilting  is where you move the camera on the tripod up and down. The different kind of shot you can have with this is filming some-ones head-toes and toes-head. This would be a good shot in a movie because it looks as though it is a scary shot of something or someone's body.

A jib shot is where you have the tripod just on two legs at the front with the back leg down. You need to lift and pan the camera and tripod whilst doing this shot. This was a fun shot to learn  how to use because it uses great effects for different shots.  I had a go at getting used to this shot by lifting the tripod. I didn't have a camera put onto the tripod to test the shot out but I didn't get the chance to.


I also learnt what a steady can shot is. A Steady can shot is where the tripod is upside down, and you follow some-ones feet or body without them knowing. This is a fantastic shot to use. I think it would work well because you can grab the audiences attention by using this shot by having them follow the person's feet without them knowing it.
