Camera Movement

Ok folks, time to start researching some camera movements.

The technical terms I would like you to research are:

pan, tilt, track, dolly, crane, steadicam, hand-held, zoom, reverse zoom.

-Put the definition of the movement into your own words and then find an example of the movement (preferably from a British TV Drama) on Youtube and post it up to your blog.

-Once you have done this, comment on what the movement adds to our feelings towards the subject of what is being filmed
