In this shot, the camera is stationary and being operated by a person. When Tua throws the pass, without the camera itself moving, it tracks the path of the ball by panning right to show the completed pass and touchdown to win the game.
2. jib/camera crane shot
"Friends with Benefits" 2011
Directed by Will Gluck
Logline: A young man and woman decide to take their friendship to the next level without becoming a couple, but soon discover that adding sex only leads to complications.
When the entire flash mob is film, a jib is used in order to show the immensity of the crowd. The purpose of the flash mob here is shock and aw so by using a crane shot, they are able to convey the huge size of the crowd to help dictate your emotions.
3. handheld camera or steadicam shot
"Children of Men" 2006
Directed by
Logline: In 2017, in a chaotic world in which women have become somehow infertile, a former activist agrees to help transport a miraculously pregnant woman to a sanctuary at sea.
This scene was shot with a specially designed camera rig that is capable of 360 degree movement. That allowed this ambush scene to be filmed in one continuous shot. This vantage point helps to make viewers feel like passengers in the car themselves.
4. drone / bird's eye (flying camera shot)
Videos such as these have a special intensity to them. In order to show the awesome surf in a place where cranes or jibs are impossible (aka in water) a drone has to be used to get the right angle and to show the entire scene.
5. wild card
Directed and created by Jay Alvarez
I really love the opening to this video. The drone footage really showcases the beauty of the island in a way no handheld or mounted camera could. This video showcases not only drone footage but handheld as well and I think it gives a unique look into their lives and lets you fell like you're living it too instead of just watching it happen.
