Live Poll: Important Cinema Camera Movements

The cinematographer decides how to frame the shots and takes care when selecting the most appropriate camera moves. The effect that each move has can vary significantly in how it makes the viewer feel. It takes something to turn a few actors and a movie set into something cinematic, evocative and occasionally iconic.

Here are some of the most important camera movements. Which camera movement do you find most influential in cinema?

I think the options are based on an article, in which case it is preferred that you link to the source.

I just wasn't sure about adding external link. It is good to know that it is fine. I have added the reference.

Great poll -- and really tough choice. I haven't decided (there are so many really influential ones) but I'm leaning toward the POV shot. 'Really well written, as usual. : )

Congratulations, Brijesh. :D

I love the subject, it's widely underestimated. Voted for the cowboy shot.
