SONY HDR - Panning - zoom - Focus.



We went out with the video camera and performed some of the basic techniques used in filming and media
which are Panning, Zoom and Focus.

Panning - Panning while filming is a term used for horizontal shifting of the shot, we performed this technique in the first 10 or 15 seconds of the video shifting from the left of our view to the right.

Zoom - Zooming in a film is to close in on your object or surrounding, simply described as a close up, but this can always disrupt the focus, we see a zoom in our video when the goose goes to the toilet, which will be subtlety evident.

Focus - Focus is the main point of attraction in a film or image that the light becomes clear and the rest of the image around the main point of focus blurs. 

Me and my group went down to the Andresey river bank in Burton because we felt that it had the best scenery in Burton town center, when we got there we found ourselves with a lot of wildlife to work with, mainly geese, unfortunately our footage never really stretched any further than that area itself but we explored all the relevant techniques.
