Here is another helpful video about the different camera movements used when filming!

Other Camera Movements
Crab- A less common phrase for a tracking shot.
Pedestal- When the camera moves vertically in line with the subject it wishes to follow. Like when someone wants to stand up from being crouched on the floor, the camera will follow them as they begin to move.
Follow- Does exactly what you think it does. This shot is where the camera physically follows the subject it is focusing on.
Zoom- This can technically be counted as a camera movement. It gives the viewer the illusion of something being close or far away in the scene. It looks as though the camera is moving towards or away from an object but in fact it hasn't moved at all.
The next blog post will be all about the rule of thirds, an important rule to follow when working out where to place your objects and characters. If you don't, things could go down hill VERY fast.
