Camera Movements

  • Crab - the camera moves completely to the left or right.
  • Pan - the camera pivots left or right, but stays to the same spot.
  • Tilt - the camera pivots up or down.
  • Boom - the camera moves up or down (as though its in a lift).
  • Dolly - the camera moves in/out from subject.
  • Zoom - the camera zooms in/out from subject. this is not strictly a camera movement because it's the lens that moves, not the camera - its an optical effect.
