Notes About What Makes Their Style Unique

  • Brad Bird enjoys using a 1-2-3 camera shot meaning the camera moves from one subject, to another, to another.
  • Likes using the camera as a playground but always for a reason. He almost never just moves the camera to have it move. There is always a reason for a specific framing of the camera.
  • He uses a quick back and forth camera movement in moments of tense conversation or confusion but slows the camera down to normal when the conversation calms down.
  • Uses each shot to follow through into the next shot in order to create continuity and pay off.
