You should always keep your heel-toe position and your center of gravity in mind. Planting your heels first and rolling your foot forward, as well as lowering your center of gravity (bending your kneed slightly) will allow you to move more smoothly while holding the camera. If you're moving backwards, do the opposite and start on your tip-toes and roll back onto your heel. This allows you to keep your upper body as still as possible in order to have more camera control. Try not to shoot zoomed in as the zoom emphasizes every movement of the camera, making your shots seem shakier. Keep your shutter speed at double your frame rate (180 degree rule), a higher frame rate can result in a shakier image. You can also enable image stabilization or use a gymbal in order to maintain stability. I will definitely be using all these tricks in my next videos, specifically if i'm trying to track a walking character and I want a hand held shot.
