Camera movement is a surefire way to amplify your visual storytelling. Whether you opt for a dolly shot, a tracking shot, or decide to go handheld, a simple scene can turn into an electrifying moment. In this video essay, Episode 6 of The Shot List, we’re going to cover every type of camera movement in film. From the storytelling value of each camera movement to the camera movement techniques necessary to pull them off.
First up is the static shot - the absence of camera movement. Static shots are perfect for dialogue scenes or when you want to showcase the actor’s performance. A pan shot is a go-to when you want to reveal context, setting, or even build suspense. A whip pan can be a dynamic way to transition between characters in a scene or between different scenes. The tilt is a camera movement typically used to introduce characters or show the size and scope of a location.
Pushing the camera in or pulling out are camera movements designed to either connect or disconnect the audience to a character or a situation. A zoom shot is not technically a camera movement because it is a function of the lens magnifying or de-magnifying the image. But when you combine it with a dolly camera movement, you can create a striking and cinematic camera movement called a dolly zoom. The dolly zoom effect compresses or stretches the background around the subject for an evocative and powerful camera shot. When a camera rolls, the world is literally turned upside down.
Tracking shots will lead or follow the subject and can be utilized in any number of situations. When the camera follows parallel to the subject, it is known as trucking. When the camera movement surrounds the subject to make them feel surrounded or perhaps heroic, you’ve got yourself an arc shot. A boom shot is a vertical camera movement, which can be subtle or grand like a crane shot. The final camera movement is handheld with random shake and/or seemingly arbitrary zooms. When you’re going for documentary realism, this is the ideal approach to camera movement.

great video as always
please dont shut this channel off
When is the next episode will be uploaded....

True and I am also learning a lot from the mb
I think the Lord Of The Rings "Dolly Zoom" shot is from wide to telephoto and the camera is going back beacuse the perspective of the backgrounds comes to us.
I've learned more from StudioBinder than my film school. You're the best.
It sucks doesn’t it 😂
We're doing our job then haha
@@thenightwolves5163 It really kinda does 😅
@@StudioBinder 100% 🙌
They bring soooo much value it’s insane.
Am I the only one that watched the whole video and now has a huge necessity to shoot a movie?
Hopefully not!
i'm not the only one this time haha
You are not
Maybe one of the best things of this video (besides the useful information), is that it can inspire and gather different people to make short films and even movies. By the way, I also feel the need to apply some of those techniques in a production.
I watched the whole video and learnt a lot.
incredible breakdown! This is a master class
hi wil
I never watch long videos but this was honestly so entertaining and educational at the same time, I had to. Amazing work!
Just curious, why do you "never watch long videos"?
@@christophefredericrouge7264 Lack of patience and focus, I'm the same way
Fantastic breakdown of all the camera movements, StudioBinder!
Thanks IndyMogul! Love your content too :)

I feel like a teacher's pet commenting everytime, but I feel like getting all of this golden content for free, the least I can do is show some appreciation! Thank you so much for these incredible lessons! Would you consider making one going a bit deeper about the effect of color grading, contrasting colors in production design and lighting and different type of palettes in general?

@@StudioBinder You are saints
@@StudioBinder what will you do next ? CGI , preset etc ?
I agree. I gotta like and subscribe to great content like this. Gotta show love for what they doing to make us all better people ultimately.
good video, for those of you who like cinematic vlog or wedding videos, maybe you can stop by my channel, ... hopefully it's useful in the future
Not only was this video incredibly informative but it's also phenomenally entertaining.
So I recently submitted a little animated short film for an in-motion CGI contest, and I noticed my virtual shots were shoddy at best. Had I seen this video before hand, there's no doubt it would have been leagues better than what I submitted. Thank you for these insights, I learned so much in 30 minutes, this valuable and useful information was incredible.
Hope you can use this video's information for your next film!!! Good luck!! From a fellow newbie film creator 🎉❤
30 mins felt like 3. Studiobinder never cease to amaze. Kudos to the whole team behind these great lessons.
Appreciate the shoutout :)
There is absolutely no basis for disliking this video. So informative and excellently presented
But it uses Disney Star Wars crap at the end as "Good film making" soooo....
Excepttttt the 12 years as a slave example 😅
@@mccreav How? He respectfully and gracefully just explained the shot lol. Unless you’re just a racist?
Sorry, but the fact that cameras constantly move, and I mean CONSTANTLY, in films made in the past 20-30 years is the reason I no longer go to the theater. It is distracting, annoying and unnecessary. Some camera movement is fine, but modern day directors and film makers have just come to rely on it as a visual crutch. The best example of the worst type of this is the movie (it was so bad I can't even recall the name) about the Boston Marathon Bombing when the FBI moved their operations into a warehouse. The camera actually spun around the axis of Kevin Bacon (I think) just standing there watching. Combine that with the other stuff and it gets very annoying. Had I not been in the theater with family and friends I would have walked out. And that has to say something about the film; the fact that I can't recall the name, can't be sure of the actors, cant remember the year of release, BUT I CAN remember the most pointless part of it. This is Hollywood today. GIGO.
@@markmalasics3413 : Agreed. Such a fine balance. Action movies are the worst. I appreciate the epic effects that movies like the matrix introduced to us. However we need to move away from this necessity to indulge the ongoing goldfish attention span of humans (which invites cinematography and editing that’s like a mr Beast video on crack seizure affect) and move back to story telling, plot, emotion and captivating story. Balance please.
I think I've used or at least toyed with and tested every one of these aside from the vertical arc but I still learned something about just about every one of them. This is truly incredible content. I only wish saw it 10 years ago.
Here's the thing. I don't own a camera, probably never will, and have no intention of ever becoming a filmmaker, and yet I continue to watch your videos. They're that good.
all right who wants to make a movie now
I do
Then let’s do it 😂
I'm in what do you need i got it
thewildcard person all right I think I need a story first💪 if we could think of something
If y’all actually want to make a movie if u have discord add me so we can get talking my discord is icemold#9419
Please don't ever delete these, they're my bible!
No plans to!
Camera movement subtly tells so much of the story. This was very educational.
I've been thinking a lot about VR. I think they're going to have to invent a wholey different "film language" as VR movies become more popular. Even videogames tend to lock-off the camera for important story points. What you gain in immersion, you lack in direction.
You guys are doing such a wonderful job in teaching us students so much about the various nuances of filmmaking. Thanks a ton, studiobinder. ❤️ You guys are the best. ❤️
The Tarantino zooming the camera in his movies especially in django unchained is my favorite
Kubrick zooms are superior, but i do like tarantino’s zooms
@@kiaandavids755 yeah that's right
He got it from Sergio Leone, his crash zooms are unforgettable
He got it from the Shaw brothers & Italian genre films of the 60s-80s
Yea very special
This channel deserves like 50 million subs or something, as someone who has just got into films and wants to start making my own, it's a treasure
Happy filming :D
Exactly
I love film theory and film study. This video was absolutely incredible and it's given me quite a few movies to add to my "to watch" list. Thank you so much!
The most incredible TH-cam video ever uploaded. Just phenomenal, hats off to StudioBinder. The structure, information, music choice, and direct conversation with your viewers are all just supreme.
WOW, I watch these videos every time they come out, but the detail in this. You guys are a free film school, making engaging and extremely informative videos and that's something I hope everyone working at StudioBinder is proud of. I speak for all the filmmakers who learn something new every time we come to this channel. THANK YOU!!!
That's exactly what we want to hear, thanks for the compliment!
@@StudioBinder this is exactly what i feel too.. filmSchoolBinder!
There is just no reason why your chanel isn't bigger, it really is the best informative filmmaking chanel, I am a filmmaking student from Argentina and I find myself always recommending your videos, you really inspire me, thank you!
Happy filming!
I've learned so much from y'all, I can now write my screenplays and direct my films knowing it will so much better!!! I love your tips and I love everything you do!
wow, that legitimately felt like a class, you had my attention from start to finish, great work! THANK YOU!
The way this video is edited puts me amazed!
👍👌
I love it!
I've worked with cameras before and you really have to thank and appreciate the effort video photographers put in. It is very difficult to do crash zooms and whip pans perfectly on point, especially if the camera is handheld. Even slow zooms and pans are difficult, you have to remain at a certain speed for who knows how long, could be up to a minute which, in experience, is SEVERELY stressful.
Wow! I feel so grateful to you guys at StudioBinder for this superlative content. As other commentators have said, what you have created is a movie-making masterclass. Thank you.
The cool thing is that these tricks can be applied to animations, video games cinematics and more!
Best tutorial ever!
9:04 OMG! Perfect Audio Transition!
We love our editors!
That's it, 10/10 perfection. This is the kind of content that I couldn't even find on paid courses, yet here we got it all for free.
literally hand feeding all these ideas in such a digestible way. Sending love to all. You are all skilled editors keep learning (:
“Here we have the 90 seconds of ‘Irreversible’ that won’t get this video removed from TH-cam.”
you got us
Which seconds are those?
Another great episode. Long have I waited for this. I hope this series never ends.
We hope so too, always generating new ideas!
At 50 with no real experience in making movies of any kind but with a strong background in Photography I have decided to attempt to make a short film. Videos like this are extremely helpful and no matter how this endeavor turns out I am sure I will learn something along the way.
These series of videos are pure gold. Excellent in every aspect. Thank you.
Man! You're the best. Never seen a detailed video on camera movement than this! Hats off. From now on, my conscious will always try to figure this which shot is actually happening in screen. Thanks! ♥
I’ve been doing video for 30 years and I’ve learned a lot watching movies but your channel has defined a lot for me so my movies are even better. You're the best! Thank you!
This's the first channel that I see in the whole youtube where they explain everything really well. Thank you so much 🔥🔥🔥🔥
jesus, i'm glad auto play led me to this channel. I was aware of studio binder as a program, but you guys are making great educational videos! I think a lot of people here are aware of general camera principles, but the examples of its use and potential is what I think is really helpful. Please keep making more!
Righteous! Gives thanks to our Lord for guidance to this gem of a channel! I share the exact same sentiment today.
Im 20 years and i just found my passion. I want to be a filmmaker. But, I dont have the economy to study in a film university, this help me a lot.
I can't stop watching this piece,thanks for sharing these important techniques
I come back to this masterpiece everytime i need an inspiration. Thank you so much for making this
Amazing. I may not have heard of the arc camera movement beforehand, but this perfectly detailed breakdown sharpens exactly what I would want to put on the big screen. Thank you so much, and I cannot wait til you discuss lenses.
all on their way!
Wow! This is the most comprehensive tutorial on camera movement I've seen! Thanks!
This was great and easy to follow even for a newbie. I'm a bit confused at the difference between a zoom in and push in, but otherwise, it all makes sense. Thanks!
"Push in" is when you're pushing the camera towards the subject. A "Zoom in" occurs when you zoom the lens of a camera, but keep it in place.
im super glad to bump into this channel. I've learned so much from episode 1 and other episodes... I'm a cinema student and I have never learned this in my film school since day 1. i have to help myself by reading articles and other videos, because teachers just told us to help ourselves and never taught us these basics ...basically i go to school just for the degree but completely not learn the basic skills.... i'm to be 3rd year and it is just today i have known all of this. thank you so much studio binder. :(
Probably I can't thank this channel enough, tomorrow is my exam as i got notification from this channel, i said my self i need to watch this video and it was well spend my 30 minutes. ❤❤❤
Good luck!
Wait this video is 30mins 😲
Amazing video! I am paying so much more attention to the actual craft behind filmmaking ever since I started to watch this series. It's incredible how much you teach us in these videos.
I can't thank you enough for that!
Cheers!
I'm just starting my film journey as a self study student. This channel is a life saver.
Omg I can’t believe this information is free, doing everything on my own, I just finished my first script and now I’m doing a shot list…it’s a lot but this information really expands what’s possible to do on my own
Designing camera moves to complement the story is one of my fav parts of filmmaking. Cool vid! :-)
right motion + right emotion = cinematic
All I can say is that watching these videos about different techniques makes me realize how complicated and intricate filmmaking is
This should be the standard for a masterclass! Great video!
A Complete Masterclass to watch again and again with Enthusiasm. Thanks StudioBinder.
I've heard that film schools are jealous of studio binder
You're very very true!!!
I think youre missing the point of higher education schools like film schools.
@@SuWoopSparrow he definitely is

@@KEP1983 Great sarcasm! You have it in you to be a writer.
I watched the entirety of this video, afterwards i realized 30 minutes had passed. Absolutely amazing video, very informative!
Great analysis. Thanks! I was realizing when you showed the Star Wars segment at the end that drone shots seem like a separate movement as they fly into and over a landscape.
This is the greatest film channel on TH-cam. You guys are incredible.
StudioBinder, as always, always presents interesting and classy information
These shot list videos are seriously helpful
They're doing their job 👍
It amazes me that such quality education is available for free. Outstanding!
I appreciate this channel exists to promote a (what I'm sure is great) product, but as someone that has studied film for over 15 years the quality and quantity of practical theory it has uploaded is incredible
*A week without your video is incomplete always love your work*
new vid every Monday!
This is just crazy how many quality information you put in this video! thank you so much!
Exceptional video to explain a subject and to conclude with understanding where the SaaS fits in with video workflow. 10/10
Your channel is really helpful and informative for people like me who are interested in filmmaking but don't have the opportunity to visit a good film school. I would like to ask you, for a beginner such as me, what kind of books do you recommend reading that will help me in understanding the core aspects of filmaking and screenplay writing.
Making Movies by Sidney Lumet is a brilliant book on filmmaking and a simple search on Google will help you find a summary/analysis of the book by Studio binder (yes! Studiobinder). And th-cam.com/video/I1DGbfgxQrM/w-d-xo.html here's a link to a twenty minute podcast. You don't have to listen to the entire podcast just go to the 4:30 timestamp and listen really carefully what the person says it will give you valuable answer to your questions. I Strongly, STRONGLY RECOMMENDED u check out the podcast at the particular timestamp.
@@themovieaudiomashupproject18 Thank you so much for the suggestion. I really appreciate it☺️.
Edit: I have started reading "Story" by Robert McKee.
@@jojowowo628 nevermind brother what is the use of being born in the Internet age if we don't use it to help each other. After all we are one big family. 😀
Honestly, spend anytime you would reading shooting something every week, even if it's bad and you can barely call it a film. Same with writing. That will help you understand better than anything, and you'll actually be getting better. Any time you have left over watch interviews and our videos :D
@@StudioBinder this is the best advice. Period. That's what the guy in the Podcast said. Great job guys I love your work.
Awesome! Extremely well explained and exciting / inspiring to watch.
I LOVE this video!!! Several of the sections from this video I already knew, and while taking pictures I utilized lens compression which is not in this video, but I truly understand why. My biggest takeaway, though they’re numerous, was the dolly zoom. I always wondered how they did that shot.
Now I need to practice this technique in my videos.
This whole video is a Master Class!
Learned more from this video that university... Thank you so much! I have been panicking for the past week because I offered to film a promo for a friend and didn't know where to start thinking. Going through this video makes everything so clear for me.THANKS THANKS!
Omg I just stumbled upon a treasure. I'm studying dentistry but it looks like I'm gonna learn cinematography in my free time 😂. Huge thank you. You guys are the meaning of free education.
This series is grand! Its like a one stop shop for all you need in cinematography. How many episodes are you planning for this one? Also, any hints on what you’ve got planned for the series in the future?
We don't have a set number of episodes; we're always developing new ideas we think will benefit the community so feel free to let us know of any suggestions!
StudioBinder I would recommend a video on shot length as well. Since you guys have tackled how to set up a shot mostly spatially (framing, angle, movement, depth of field, etc.) it would be nice to tackle the time aspect of a shot, how long it is and what it signifies, etc.
Your videos are so well done and well prepared! Hope to see more of them soon!
Absolutely mind blowing how creative video directors are!
This was amazing! Thank you so much for this content. I’m just getting into filmmaking so I appreciate this so much.
Literally made my day before even pressing play! Love this series
Hope you liked it!
YOOOO! This is epic. NIce one Studiobinder! When Hot Fuzz came in. I was really happy. l feel like more people should know Edgar Wright. Amazing Director.
I literally love the way they r explaining everything in this channel, BIG LIKE 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
this is.... just the best video of camera movement I've seen in my whole life
Sooo good guys, you have given me so much over the last couple of years it’s been crazy. Thank you.
Happy filming!
Great video as always.
it'd be great if you could make a video about the types of transitions in a film (cut to, jump cut to, fade to, etc....)

Thank you for this amazing video. The quality of the editing and the fantastic voice over made it thoroughly entertaining to watch from beginning till the end.
I’ve learned a heap of tips which I look forward to applying to my next TH-cam video.
I will be using this on my next project. Great stuff!
This video was posted on my birthday. What a gift! :)

pans all day
Superb episode! I cant wait to put some into practice.

This is like David Attenborough teaching you filmmaking aspects. Love it !!!!!
Wow. Don’t remember when I last watched something so brilliantly explained.
A very essential video for beginners!
Yup, we want it to be accessible to everyone!
Soo nice see City of God (Cidade de Deus), from my country, as one example on this video! The editing os insane. By the way, great video, like always!
it's a fantastic use of the technique!
