What is the difference between zooming and dollying? What do dollying and trucking add to the shot?
A dolly shot is a moving shot where the camera moves smoothly through a scene towards or away from something. It can also move parallel in a trucking shot or around something in an arc. A zoom is an artificial magnification, which doesn't change the spacial relationship of the actor, elements of the shot, and the camera, unlike the dolly shot. As the dolly shot physically moves the audience through a scene, it can have the effect of forcing your audience towards danger or leave a situation. It can be used to move from an over-the-shoulder shot to just a closeup of the subject to make the audience connect more intimately with that character or to focus on a particular detail.
