BLOG QUESTION ADV: CINEMATIC CAMERA MOVEMENT

Why does the beginning shot example look bad from a technical as well as a storytelling viewpoint? What are three differences between the static shot examples that the narrator shows and shots with a dolly or a handheld rig?

-  The weight of the camera has an effect on how shaky a shot is. The smaller and more lightweight a camera is, the more noticeable the jolts are to the camera's sensor. Some key differences between a handheld rig and a dolly rig is that a dolly rig is often smoother, adds more emotion, and can be immersive. It allows for more dynamic movement. A handheld rig can also be used to add emotion, making scenes feel more tense and erratic.
