Key question:What is the difference between a track and a pan?
A tracking shot is called a tracking shot because the camera is actually on tracks so that it can follow the action.A pan shot is where the camera stays still and twists to keep the subject in shot or show the scenery.
Camera Shots, Angle, Movement & Composition
Framing and composition:The rule of thirds can be explained by splitting an image into a grid of three vertical and horizontal boxes.
This leaves four important parts of the image (highlighted in red) where points of interest should be placed.
Placing elements of the image in these four areas makes the image more balanced and appear more natural. With each image you see, ask the following:
• What are the points of interest in this shot?• Where has the director intentionally put the
points of interest? Why?
