Camera Movement

When I think of camera movement, one music video immediately comes to mind: “The Denial Twist” by The White Stripes.

This is the personification of camera movement...cleverly telling a story by moving in and out with the camera to show the viewer what is necessary to look at it in order to tell their story.

Another music video with incredible camera movement that I just watched recently is “This Too Shall Pass” by OK Go.



The camera fluidly moves throughout the building, zooming in on particular objects as we see the story unfold. Without the camera moving moving and zooming consistently, the video wouldn’t have the same effect as it does.
