Handheld, dolly, Steadicam, crane, and static shots all are tools to cater to the film, not detract from it. Understanding the origins of these shots can better your skills when it comes to capturing\u00a0them on set.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">In this video, I\u2019ve broken down several of the camera movements I use most frequently \u2014 and when it\u2019s appropriate to use them.<\/p>\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\/oiFSUmRsJBs?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<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"shooting-handheld\">Shooting Handheld<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105165 size-large\" title=\"Which Camera Movement Should You Use \u2014 And When And Why? \u2014 Shooting Handheld\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?w=755\" alt=\"Which Camera Movement Should You Use \u2014 And When And Why? \u2014 Shooting Handheld\" width=\"755\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?resize=300,136 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?resize=277,126 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?resize=359,163 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?resize=543,247 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?resize=560,254 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Handheld.jpg?resize=150,68 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Shooting something organically is a goal shared by many filmmakers. You want to make something honest, real, cheap, and (most importantly) you want to connect with your audience. I&#8217;m here to make the case for why shooting handheld isn&#8217;t always the best solution. If you&#8217;re looking at major motion pictures as a reference point, you&#8217;ll note that the best stories aren&#8217;t always told through the motion of the camera \u2014 rather, they rely on carefully composing the characters within a smooth shot. You&#8217;ll notice the smoothness of your vision if you stand up and walk around the room. It&#8217;s almost as if there is in-body stabilization built into your brain, acting as a gimbal of sorts.<\/p>\n<p>Shooting handheld is perfect for a variety of different shots and moments throughout your film. Action movies tend to use the shaky handheld aesthetic to bring the viewers in while making them anxious, then spit them out once the violence concludes. Directors like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0339030\/?ref_=nv_sr_2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Paul Greengrass<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0634240\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Christoper Nolan<\/a> (with the Dark Knight films), and plenty of others all block their scenes with the handheld view.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"going-for-smooth\">Going for Smooth<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105166 size-large\" title=\"Which Camera Movement Should You Use \u2014 And When And Why? \u2014 Going for Smooth\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?w=755\" alt=\"Which Camera Movement Should You Use \u2014 And When And Why? \u2014 Going for Smooth\" width=\"755\" height=\"353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?resize=300,140 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?resize=277,130 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?resize=359,168 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?resize=543,254 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?resize=560,262 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Smooth.jpg?resize=150,70 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, filmmakers like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000399\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">David Fincher<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0000759\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Paul Thomas Anderson<\/a> favor the slow, smooth, steady camera work that acts as the point of view for the audience. Slowing things down and using a gimbal or a Steadicam puts the viewer in the characters&#8217; shoes and immerses them in the narrative world.<\/p>\n<p>But, if you want to slow things down even more, go for complete stillness. Set your camera up on a tripod, carefully compose the shot according to the space at hand, and let the story unfold right before a fixed lens.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"theres-no-right-way\">There&#8217;s No Right Way<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105167 size-large\" title=\"Which Camera Movement Should You Use \u2014 And When And Why? \u2014 No Right Way\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?w=755\" alt=\"Which Camera Movement Should You Use \u2014 And When And Why? \u2014 No Right Way\" width=\"755\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?resize=300,159 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?resize=277,147 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?resize=359,190 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?resize=543,288 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?resize=560,297 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Do-Whatever-you-want.jpg?resize=150,79 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The beauty of filmmaking is that every aspect of the production process offers both blessings and curses.
