Panning

Panning is employed when shooting a scene from one position to

another by moving the camera around horizontally to make a con­

tinuous shot over a wide area in one sequence.

Do

not

move

the

camera

too

rapidly

in

any direction,

partic­

ularly vertically. Use of a tripod is recommended.

Panning shots are usually started from subjects of less impor­

tance

and

move

on

to the

most

important

subject

where

it ends

by running the film longer on the last sequence.

■ Move the camera at a constant speed.

Prevent

a

subject

from

being

blurred

by

using

high

filming

speeds, i.e., "24" and "SLOW MOTION".
