Mobile Framing: Camera Movements Pans = rotates horizontally, side to side (“camera rotates on vertical axis”) Tilts = vertical pivot/rotation, up and down In pans & tilts, camera does not change position, it pivots or rotates. Usually tripod mounted. Dolly/tracking/traveling shots Crane (and “boom” or jib) shots Hand-held and steadycam shots 15

Tracking Shot – Children of Men (2006) Alfonso Cuaron; Steadicam example

Subjective shot (or point-of-view shot) Subjective Shot/Camera: from the position/point of view of a character--as if seeing through character eyes. Also called POV shot. Cinema equivalent of “First Person” in writing. Some people make distinction between subjective shots & POV shots: use “POV shots” to include “over- the-shoulder” shots--which give a sense of POV without actually being from the position of the character. But easier & better: treat POV and Subjective as the same; over-the-shoulder as different. 17
