Use tracking shots to make your videos better.
Why not use tracking shots to make your videos more interesting?
Tracking shots make your videos way more interesting.
Leading shot
This is where the cameraman walks backwards while you walk forward.
Lateral follow shot
The cameraman walks alongside you, parallel to you.
Follow shot
A classic. The cameraman follows you from behind. It’s a cool shot.
Try any of these to make your next piece to camera more dynamic and engaging. They are good for really short pieces so that you don’t run out of walking room!
