meaningful
composition.

composition.

and unframed with no
attention to
composition.
Movement
The camera is steady
and pans, tilts, zooms,
and follows when
appropriate. Hand-
held shots are not
distracting, but
appropriate to the
narrative.
The camera is
steady and most
shots move with
the action
appropriately.
The camera is mostly
steady. The camera
does not always follow
the action or is
distracting to the story
(i.e. too many zooms
in and out). There is
no camera movement
whatsoever.

made to hold the
camera steady. The
hand-held is distracting
and unfocused. There
are unnecessary pans,
tilts, and zooms that do
not contribute to telling
the story.
