CAMERA MOVEMENT

This page outlines the standard types of camera movement in film and video. In the real world, many camera moves use a combination of these techniques simultaneously.

Crab: A less-common term for tracking or trucking.
Dolly: The camera is mounted on a cart which travels along tracks for a very smooth movement. Also known as a tracking shot or trucking shot.
Dolly Zoom: A technique in which the camera moves closer or further from the subject while simultaneously adjusting the zoom angle to keep the subject the same size in the frame.
Follow: The camera physically follows the subject at a more or less constant distance.
Pan: Horizontal movement, left and right.
Pedestal (Ped): Moving the camera position vertically with respect to the subject.
Tilt: Vertical movement of the camera angle, i.e. pointing the camera up and down (as opposed to moving the whole camera up and down).
Track: Roughly synonymous with the dolly shot, but often defined more specifically as movement which stays a constant distance from the action, especially side-to-side movement.
Truck: Another term for tracking or dollying.
Zoom: Technically this isn't a camera move, but a change in the lens focal length with gives the illusion of moving the camera closer or further away.

SHOT SIZES



Establishing shot: or long shot, gives your audience a sense of location and will set the scene for your film

Medium shot: makes your subject the key element of the frame and often used to show interactions with other characters. When using medium shots, be aware of what else is in the frame, so as not to interfere with your subject.

Close up shot: usually fills the frame with a single object and encourages your audience to concentrate on a particular aspect of the story.

XCU: extreme close up
VCU: very close up: face shot from mid forehead to above the chin
BCU: big close up: full head
CU: close up: just above head to upper chest
MCU: medium close up: just above head to lower chest
MS: medium shot: just above head to below the waist
MLS: medium long shot: contains the entire body plus a short distance above or below
LS: long shot
XLS: extra long shot
WS: wide shot
Single: shot of just one person, usually speaking
2S (two shot): shot of two people, usually speaking
GV: general view: usually wide shot establishing location
OS: off screen or out of shot

COLOR MIXING



From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are two types of color mixing: Additive and Subtractive. In both cases there are three primary colors, three secondary colors (colors made from 2 of the three primary colors in equal amounts), and one tertiary color made from all three primary colors.

Additive Mixing
Additive mixing of colors generally involves mixing
colors of light. In additive mixing of colors there are three primary colors: red, green, and blue. In the absence of color or, when no colors are showing, the result is black. If all three primary colors are showing, the result is white. When red and green combine, the result is yellow. When red and blue combine, the result is magenta. Additive mixing is used in television and computer monitors to produce a wide range of colors using only three primary colors.

Subtractive Mixing
Subtractive mixing is done by selectively removing certain colors, for instance with optical filters. The three primary colors in subtractive mixing are yellow, magenta, and cyan. In subtractive mixing of color, the absence of color is white and the presence of all three primary colors is black. In subtractive mixing of colors, the secondary colors are the same as the primary colors from additive mixing, and vice versa. Subtractive mixing is used to create a variety of colors when printing on paper by combining a small number of ink colors, and also when painting. The mixing of pigments does not produce perfect subtractive color mixing because some light from the subtracted color is still being reflected. This results in a darker and desaturated color compared to the color that would be achieved with ideal filters.
