Camera movement: dolly.

Camera movement: Dolly.
A director may choose to use the dolly camera movement because they need to film a scene whilst in motion however instead of the camera moving back and forth it would mainly move around in a circle. The dolly camera movement is where the camera is put on a track and therefore the camera moves around but in a sequence.

A director may use the dolly camera movement on a person if the actor or person is moving or if they for some reason would have the camera moving around them. If a person or actor is being interrogated for example the camera movement may move back and forth to show their panic or to show the quick process and thoughts that they might be going through. For example:
Example from the films Star Trek and The Shining:      Example from the TV show Sherlock Holmes:




A director may use the dolly camera movement on an object or scenery because they would like to capture the essence that the object or scene is within. The director may use the dolly camera effect if they would like to film the scenery that the content is set within. For example:
Example from the film Hugo:                                                   Unknown example:
