in the small clip above you can see what tracking is, it is when the camera follows the characters movement instead of holding the shot still when the character is moving. if used correctly tracking can make the scene extremely dynamic and it can make it a fun experience for the audience as if you do it correctly it will make the audience feel like they are actually following the character instead of them just watching the character. in my trailer i plan to use one tracking shot for a scene that will last a maximum of four seconds. the tracking shot will be a low angle where camera is a few inches from the floor and the shot will be of an object being dragged along the floor. this is where the problem is as the school doesn't have the equipment to be able to shoot tracking smoothly and in the conventional way i will have to use my imagination to be able to move the camera forward without the shot becoming shaky and out of focus. my idea is to use a piece of wood and a skateboard to create a track that i will push the camera through. the idea is simple enough to create grooves in the wood so the board wont roll off and just place the wood on the floor making sure it is flat to the floor using a spirit level to make sure the elevation of the ground below is level so it will be suitable for filming purposes.
