Dolly Dolly shot Double exposure

n.phr.


Subject Field: Cinematography
Synonym of
Tracking shot
Context: The earliest dollies were large, heavy vehicles that were used almost solely in the studio. Many new lightweight dollies have been introduced that make dolly work on location so easy that their use has almost become the norm. Dollies often require specially designed track to eliminate the bumpiness of moving over uneven surfaces. Dolly shots can be quite effective because they can go from one proxemic position to another. They can go from the random information of a long shot to the very specific information of a close-up or vice versa. The camera moving in, called a push-in, can be used to clarify detail, identify objects of importance, or amplify emotion.
