What are three key tips to hand-holding your camcorder? How can you implement these starting today?
It’s important to hold the camera close to your body, with your elbows close to your sides. Relax your shoulders so you won’t tense up. This way you keep the camera more stable and it won’t be as tiring. You also don’t want to zoom in too much. When you zoom in, it’s harder to keep the subject in focus, and it also emphasizes small movements, making your footage more shaky. You can also try mounting the camera on your shoulder to put less stress on your arms. All of these tips are helpful, and I can implement them during the scavenger hunt assignment while filming my partner, and I can keep the zoom tip in mind when I'm filming the flower.
