Camera Movement  Crane Down- moves you into the story or the scene. Crane up - gives us a feeling of how small the character is or how large the obstacle is that he or she has to overcome. Handheld camera movement- can give us a feeling of uneasiness or danger. Quick pan- can change the emotional feeling of a scene at once. A quick push in- creates a feeling of surprise or shock.  Slow dolly in- creates tension and helps us become a little more intimate with the character. Slow dolly out- can leave the character looking emotionally lost or abandoned.  Dolly across-  changes the emotional direction of a scene. Glidecam- creates a motion thats more smooth than a handheld camera. Creates more of a dance feeling while two people hold guns. Handheld camera- feels edgy and stressful. Glidecam 360 reveal- gives you a calm before the storm feeling. Zolly- creates an overwhelming emotional feeling.
