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.
