This intense and mind-bending shot is called a dolly zoom and it has been used for decades to capture moments like this. But how does the dolly zoom effect work and how many ways can it be used? In the video, we’ll explain the mechanics of the shot, the applications for it, and how to enhance it with lighting, camera angle, and sound design. WHAT IS THE DOLLY ZOOM EFFECT As Alfred Hitchcock explains, the idea for the dolly zoom goes back to one night when he was drunk. He described the sensation as “everything going far away from me” and an idea was born to recreate that experience in a film. The goal was to keep the subject fixed in the frame while the background stretched behind them. Hitchcock first wanted to use the shot in Rebecca when Joan Fontaine’s character faints but he couldn’t figure out how to do it. Nearly two decades later, when Hitchcock was making his classic Vertigo. It was a cameraman on the film named Irmin Roberts who found the solution — to zoom out while the dolly pushed in. WHEN TO USE THE DOLLY ZOOM EFFECT The dolly zoom effect can really amp up a moment like in Jaws, or it can work more subtly in the background to slowly crank up the tension. It is perfect for any sort of sudden or dramatic emotional or tonal shift — for positive and negative emotions alike. The dolly zoom effect is great for moments of fear, disorientation, infatuation, panic, revelation, etc. It can be the ideal way to accent and emphasize any important character moment. HOW TO ENHANCE THE VERTIGO EFFECT The textbook dolly zoom maneuver is visually compelling on its own but there are also a number of ways to enhance the Vertigo effect. For example, changing the lighting during the shot — like in The Lion King when Simba panics before the oncoming stampede. Sound design is also often paired with the camera movement as additional sensory input. For example, in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, when Peter is told how his mother really died, the soundtrack introduces a descending bass note, while high strings rise in the mix. The two complementary sounds nicely parallel the complementary movements of the lens and the camera. The dolly zoom effect is relatively simple and it certainly looks cool. But the filmmakers that have been most successful using the Vertigo effect only when necessary to enhance a particular moment in a way that is beyond our normal visual experience. #FilmTheory #VideoEssay #Filmmaking ───────────────────── ♬ SONGS USED: “Dark Night” - The Blasters “Major Tom (Coming Home)” - Peter Schilling “The Wanderer” - Makeup and Vanity Set “Quantum IV” - Makeup and Vanity Set “Tannhäuser Gate” - Makeup and Vanity Set “Funeral March of a Marionette” - Charles Gounod and Lyn Murray “Prelude and Rooftop” - Bernard Herrmann “Stuck Behind a Train” - Makeup and Vanity Set “Layla” - Derek and the Dominos “Dinner Rush” - Michael Giacchino “Le Vent Tourne” - Sens Unik “Girl You’ll Be a Woman Soon” - Urge Overkill “Eyes Without A Face” - Billy Idol “Main Titles” - Theodore Shapiro “The Descent” - David Julyan “Meet Maguire” - Thomas Newman “Needles and Dalgona” - PARK MIN JU “Kid Vs.
