From doing this small task I have been made aware of the contsant movement of the camera. All of the shots contain pans or different techniques so that the camera is never stationary. I have also found how there are a wide variety of different shots including long slow-motion shots broken up by short and fast cuts.

Out of this I can take away different techniques we can use in our video. I really liked the use of slow motion shots and when shots are unfocused to focused. This is something we tried in our practice tasked and seemed to work well.
