Exploring camera movement
When you film, the camera doesn't to be completely still or stay in a fixed position. Sometimes still or 'static' shots are great, other times it's worth experimenting with different camera movements to make a scene more visually engaging. Different camera movements can also have an effect on how the audience experiences the film, some shots might help them feel involved in the action, others might make them feel detached. Some types of camera movement might have a calming effect, others might help the audience feel panicked or confused.
