Preliminary Exercise: Camera Movement Video Blog Post

  So, me and my team made practice videos to prep us for the film opening. We made several videos using the different camera techniques. The process was fun and we enjoyed every bit. We got the chance to communicate and understand how to effectively film each shot. However, my favorite was the tracking. We had to remake the video a few times because the hallway wasn't clear.
