Blog Post 3: Examples of effective and motivated camera movement

For this blog entry, I have found 3 examples of effective and motivated camera movements.


1. Percussion Gun music video by White Rabbits. I chose this music video not only because it is one of my favorite music videos, but also because of the movement. I love the way the camera follows the lead singer and the other members of the band while they are performing on a rotating set. The set is moving slowly but quick edits make it appear as if it is moving very fast.


2. Young Blood music video by The Naked and Famous. Another one of my favorite videos for a favorite song. This video has many instances of motivated movement. Some shots are steady shots of people jumping over cars while others have the camera moving with the people to try and match the energy of the song with the video. My favorite part being 3:03-3:44.

3. Scene from Breaking Bad. I love this scene because the camera movements deliberately try to make you think that Skyler is alone talking to Marie but slowly pans it to reveal that Walt has been in the room with her the whole time.
