So let&#8217;s start at the beginning. We&#8217;ll take a look at how to set your camera and lens before you actually\u00a0start rolling.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"understanding-the-iris\">Understanding the Iris<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NKY1LHWa_zw?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s talk about the f-stop. This term\u00a0refers to the aperture or iris inside your lens. It determines how much\u00a0light\u00a0can\u00a0reaches your camera&#8217;s sensor.<\/p>\n<p>So how can you measure it for yourself and determine the right f-stop? Remember the scale of your f-stops like this: the higher the f-stop (a f16 or f22, for example), the less light will hit the sensor, creating a darker image. So, a lower f-stop will yield a brighter image with a shallow depth of field.<\/p>\n<p>Which reminds me, lets talk about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/power-shooting-shallow-depth-field\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">depth of field<\/a>. The depth of field you set determines how much your camera can keep in focus,\u00a0and you control this with the f-stop. So, a lower f-stop like f2.8 will\u00a0create a very\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/create-shallow-depth-field\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">shallow depth of field<\/a>\u00a0that can\u00a0usually only keep a\u00a0small area in focus. The higher the aperture, the\u00a0&#8220;deeper&#8221; the depth of field.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"understanding-shutter-speed\">Understanding Shutter Speed<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F6yaXEU5opQ?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Shutter speed is a measurement of time \u2014 specifically how long the shutter stays open when capturing an image. You\u2019ll see it as a fraction of a second or a number of full seconds. So if your shutter speed is 1\/250, this means that your shutter was open for one two-hundred fiftieth of a second. Super fast.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0videographers can understand\u00a0the shutter speed in terms of a door opening or wheel spinning, letting light in for a certain amount of time. To quote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/blog\/author\/tblankenship\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Todd Blankenship<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Shutter angle is a measurement system that has stuck around from the film-camera days. There was a circular shutter that would constantly spin in front of the film emulsion. The shutter angle is a measurement (in terms of degrees) of how much of that circle is left open for the duration of the rotation.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is but one of the many ways you can determine how your image will look in relation to how much light\u00a0reaches\u00a0the sensor.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"understanding-iso\">Understanding ISO<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/k1kYSwiGu_0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The ISO can be a bit tricky, especially\u00a0since the ISO settings\u00a0you use to properly expose your shot\u00a0change from camera to camera.<\/p>\n<p>You can think of adjusting the ISO as adjusting the signal you get from the &#8220;photosites&#8221; on the sensor\u00a0that measure blue, green, and red colors. So when you increase the ISO, you increase the camera&#8217;s sensitivity to light. Some cameras\u00a0can produce a clear image in very dark situations,\u00a0while other cameras\u00a0yield noisy, grainy, unusable images under the same circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>So, it really depends on your camera&#8217;s capabilities. I always watch test videos on YouTube and check out camera reviews before purchasing\u00a0a camera. It&#8217;s a good way to see what your camera can do without forking over your savings in advance.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have your camera set and the lighting is just right, here are some camera moves and techniques to consider.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"pan-tilt-and-zoom\">Pan, Tilt, and Zoom<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/arqIZr0HiH0?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start with the <strong>pan<\/strong>. The pan\u00a0moves the camera along a horizontal plane. Usually, you&#8217;ll perform this movement on a tripod. You can find this type of shot in the work of famous directors like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0027572\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Wes Anderson<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000040\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Stanley Kubrick<\/a>.\u00a0You can use it comedically or for dramatic reveals \u2014 either way, it&#8217;s just\u00a0a method of directing the audience&#8217;s attention.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>tilt<\/strong> is basically the same idea, but instead of moving along a horizontal plane,\u00a0you move the camera along\u00a0a vertical plane.\u00a0Think of this as a movement from\u00a0point A and point B. A good rule of thumb is to catch your subject in focus at point B, so that when the camera stops moving, you don&#8217;t have to refocus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Zooming<\/strong> is pretty self-explanatory, but there are ways you can\u00a0pull off a perfect zoom, meaning your image is in focus\u00a0exactly when you need it to be.

This is when we get up-close-and-personal with the characters. Getting this shot requires a shallow depth of field, which directs your audience&#8217;s attention\u00a0to exactly what you\u00a0want them to see \u2014 usually a character&#8217;s eyes or mouth. Outside of narrative film, the close-up\u00a0will come in handy if you&#8217;re ever shooting product photography.<\/p>\n<p>The wide shot is a little more\u00a0versatile. This all-encompassing shot\u00a0is perfect for many different scenes and scenarios, like a walk-and-talk, a conversation, a landscape, or an action scene. Wide lenses are usually anything from 15mm to 35mm. Most of your image will be in focus, so choose your locations and surroundings carefully.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/7-standard-filmmaking-shots-every-cinematographer-must-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">7 Standard Filmmaking Shots Every Cinematographer Must Know<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/7-standard-filmmaking-shots-every-cinematographer-must-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How to Frame a Wide Shot Like a Master<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/how-to-shoot-close-up-shots-like-sergio-leone\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How to Shoot Close-Up Shots like Sergio Leone<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"tracking-and-dolly-shots\">Tracking and Dolly Shots<\/h3>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1fuuR_43PFY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s look at moving the entire camera rig.
