Tilt

A tilt is a camera movement that can be explained by moving the camera up or down while keeping the horizontal axis the same. this can be compared to nodding your head up and down. 

Tilts can be used in music videos to show that women or men are being sexualised for example in the music video for  "Partition" by Beyonce. 

tilts have been used to sexualise beyonce instead of the audience being focused in her music ability , this plays into her image as a sexual symbol. This tilt is used to allude to her costumer (or some may say lack of costume).
A tilt can also be used to introduce a character or setting this is evident in this music video by D.R.A.M "Cash Machine.

Arc

An arc can be explained as a camera movement that the camera in a semi circle like shape around the subject. Arc can be used to show that the world the artist is in completely surrounds around them, this is a great way to portray an artist with an important image such as being aware and conscience or this can be used to show that an artist is more edgy depending on how this camera movement is being used in post production.

Dolly In 

Dolly In is the forward motion of the camera towards the subject however this is done smoothly, this can be done by using a steadycam. In some instants this is better than zooming into a shot of the subject as you mad lose the same depth of field. Dolly In can give the effect that we are follow the artist as they are powerful and important these can be used in various Hip Hop tracks. It is also a good way to focus on one subject at a time.

an example of this can be found in

Low Angle 

Low angles can be described as the camera being pointed in the upward direction, this will cause the artist to look down at the camera, this creates the effect of the artist is in charge or is dominate. this is used a lot in hip hop music videos as the artist has a image to maintain as being in charge and powerful. the low angle helps achieve this.

(0.25-0.30)

High Angle

High Angles can be described as where the camera is set above the subject, this gives the dynamic effect of the camera looking down at the subject. this gives the affect to the audience that the subject is vulnerable and insignificant. this can be used in music videos where the artist is playing into the image of being vulnerable , how ever it can also be used in pop music video especially for a scene with a party atmosphere.



Canted/Dutch Angle

Canted angles can be described as the camera being slanted in one motion. this can give the effect of that the artist is going for an unstable image or this can be used to show something is quiet not right. For example a genre that uses this a lot is indie. Indie artist find themselves shooting their music videos as if the artist is going for a sadistic image. Canted angles can also portray the energy of an artist or band






Crash Zoom

Crash Zoom can be described as the camera frame closing in on a subject or artist, this is commonly used throughout different genres of music videos. One effect i feel this camera movement has is that it creates the feeling of claustrophobia. this is because the camera frames are getting closer and closer, causing the viewer to feel intimidated.

Birds eye view

A Birds Eye View is where the shot is being filmed from the above of the location via going on higher ground or having an drone which it has a camera on it to film it although the camera operator will need to control it from causing damage to the product because they may need to pay for a new one. The reason why Birds Eye View is used in music video as it is establishing the scene of the location that is taking place and it can create an effect of looking down on the artist that appears in the video but here is an example of an hip-hop music video that uses this technique is Flowzart's The Prophet where it appears in the beginning of the video to show the location of which the video is going to be taking place. As well as the title of the music video




Handheld

Another thing that is related to camera movement which it can seen in a music video depending on the genre of the track/song is handheld where the definition behind this is a technique where the camera is being held by the operator's hands rather than having on the tripod which it creates an more realistic looking of the audience watching it like it is happening in real life. Finally another example of music video that is use Handheld is the song of Panda by Desiigner but the reason the cameraman decides to use this is because it is creating an sense instability and to show the point of view of the artist.this also plays into the image of the artist being raw and creative.
