Camera translation

Lens shifting is to put the camera on a moving vehicle and shoot horizontally according to a certain motion trajectory.

Follow-up is also called follow-up A photographic method in which a movie camera tracks a moving object.

Shift lens

When the shooting opportunity changes, the method of shooting while moving is called lens shift. [1] Even if the camera is installed on the moving track or equipped with pulleys, it can be installed on the elevator for sliding shooting, thus forming a moving shooting mode. Its linguistic meaning is similar to translation, but it is stronger than its visual effect. Generally, it is often seen in foreign blockbusters, China blockbusters, TV sports programs and mtv. The changing background in the moving lens makes the lens present a sense of fluidity, which makes the audience immersive and enhances the artistic appeal.

Move the lens horizontally to the left, right, front and back.

Tracking lens

Also called follow-up. A photographic method in which a movie camera tracks a moving object. Can create a coherent and smooth visual effect. Follow the camera to shoot a performance object in action all the time, so as to continuously and carefully show its activities or actions and expressions in action. Follow-up lens can continuously and carefully show the movements and expressions of characters in action, which can not only highlight the main body in motion, but also explain the direction, speed, posture of the moving body and its relationship with the environment, so as to keep the movement of the moving body coherent and help to show the mental outlook of the characters in the dynamic.

Generally speaking, following the camera can be divided into shaking, moving and pushing. But it is different from the moving lens, which emphasizes "following" with the lens, and the shooting distance of the moving lens is time-varying, which can create a coherent and changing visual image for the audience (see film photography and film photography art).
