Dolly Shot

This was a quick run through of a dolly zoom we did this to get a better idea and practice for what we need to do on set. A dolly zoom is where the camera moves backwards as the camera zooms in at the same speed meaning the object remains constant and doesn't change in scale, however the background moves in a way similar to parallax. We intend to use this shot before one of our characters looks into the mirror to see her future, hopefully it will give the effect that the world around her is closing in on her, we intend to use this shot to add emphasis to the emotions she would be feeling at the time, nervous anxiety.

This shot is used in la haine a french film, the two boys are seen leaning against a rail as the camera moves back and zooms in the boys appear to get closer however the background seems to get further away.
