 Name 3 different camera movements; explain how they may be used

Close up-  A close up or extreme close up is a useful camera technique which can focus on a character. It is commonly used to build a bond between the audience and characters and is particularly useful when showing grief or uneasiness.

Panning-  panning is swivelling the view of a fixed camera horizontally and can be used to set a large scene. this could be a persons POV as they turn their head left or right. camera pans can also be used to elongate shutter exposure when trying to take a still image of a moving object.

Establishing shot- Often included at the beginning of a scene, the establishing shot helps to build ambiance and may give a nod towards the context of what’s to come. It generally comes in the form of a long shot and indicates where (and sometimes when) the scene is taking place.
