Introduction to Camera Movement - Research

     Camera movement is the section of cinematography that refers to the way a camera shifts to visually narrate and shape a viewer's perspective of a scene. In films, camera movement is used to help enhance the story that the director is trying to portray. With a certain type of movement can have a multitude of emotions for the viewers just with a simple movement. The camera operator and the director are responsible for the movement of the camera in films.

    Tyler perry and Whoopi Goldberg are both 2 directors. Tyler Perry directed the movies 'Diary of a Mad Black Women', 'Meet the Browns', and 'Paw Patrol the Movie'. Perry used the tracking movement in 'Meet the Browns' to show the conversations between character moving from one are to another area. Whoopi Goldberg directed the movies 'Toy Story 3', '9/11' and 'The Color Purple'. Before this lesson I already had knowledge about the camera movement 'Reverse zoom' and 'Boom'. I knew these movement from watching behind the scenes clips for movies.
