Principle of translation

Panning is like turning your head and looking around, so you can break through the limitation of TV picture frame, and use the motion of the camera to expand the surrounding pictures, broaden your horizons and contain more visual information. Translation focuses on introducing the terrain, stories or events of the environment and showing a broader visual background. It has the functions of a large scene and a wider field of vision than fixed the picture's. It has its unique expressive power in representing vast and far-reaching scenes such as mountains, grasslands, deserts and oceans. This method of expressing space and expanding vision by shaking the lens is usually done by shaking the lens evenly and smoothly at the speed of the distant or panoramic scene. Its purpose is to give a complete impression through the whole process of shaking, not to describe an object in detail. It pursues the overall image of the picture, not the description of the specific image. Because it expands the performance space of the picture, horizontal panning can be used for wider objects, such as bridges and dams across the river, and vertical panning can be used for taller objects, such as skyscrapers and TV towers, so that the whole picture can be displayed completely and continuously. It is the development of translation movement, which shows the whole picture and form of the subject and forms a magnificent momentum. For some themes, such as long logo, flagpole, etc. According to the characteristics of the object, we can use a smaller scene, let the object fill the picture and exclude the meaningless parts in the picture, so as to achieve the purpose of distinguishing the big effect with the small scene.
