  • Zoom/Blur/Chaotic effect for a Fighting Scene

    Hi there! I’m an Italian guy, so I’m SORRY for my really bad english. So, I’m a new user of this amazing forum , and I’m new in the “video making art” too, so I will not too ambicious about making video…BUT I would like to make a promotional video for my airsoft Club…and I thought something like that:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur…&v=fRI-2mp8_TU

    I want to be clear: I know that this video is at a pro level…but I only want to know few things about it:
    1) at 1:05 we can see a this guy face, and a VERY shaking/chaoting shooting with a uninterrupted zoom in/out on the soldier. You can see this effect for the enitre fighting scene, and I think that they are so cool for a shooting/fighting scene! So: those effects have a particoular name or not?
    2) There is any tutorial/video tutorial to make them?

    There is a little speed ramping going on, but most of what I think you’re talking about is due to the shutter speed of the camera when the footage was shot.

    Agree with Mark, most of what is going on there with the exception of speed changes looks like it was done in camera with little crash zooms and fast handheld moves to give the chaotic look.

    best wishes
