“Drink for a zoom where the subject stays the same size but the background gets smaller or larger”
The technical term is a “dolly zoom,” but it is colloquially known as a “Hitchcock zoom” or “Vertigo zoom.”
shut up 🙂
remember that PBS show “Zoom”?
imagine if that were directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Shit would go down. Those kids would solve those math puzzles way quicker.
