Usually,
documentary film is using long lens. Everything is happening in front of you
and you will not know when it ends, that’s why we need long lens and keep shooting.
However, using long lens effectively does not mean following everything like a
fly. A dedicated shooter should know how to choose the right thing to shoot and
adjusting position, composition and view depends on motion, emotion and how
thing change. Knowing the person’s feeling helps the shooter to get a better
shot. The long shots in documentary always shock the audience through the
actual time it toke which could not be achieved by final cutting. Sometimes it
is necessary to abandon shooting technique to make a complete long shot. For
example how to use auto-focusing instead of manual-focusing to avoid defocus. For
my project, shots usually taken on the sea, many shots will be unstable and I
need to practice more about that.
