Dolly zoom

A dolly zoom (also known as a Hitchcock shot, Vertigo shot, Jaws effect, or zolly shot) is an in-camera effect that appears to undermine normal visual perception. The effect is achieved by zooming a zoom lens to adjust the angle of view (often referred to as field of view, or FOV) while the camera dollies (moves) toward or away from the subject in such a way as to keep the subject the same size in the frame throughout. The zoom shifts from a wide-angle view into a more tightly packed angle. In its classic form, the camera angle is pulled away from a subject while the lens zooms in, or vice versa. The dolly zoom's switch in lenses can help audiences identify the visual difference between wide-angle lenses and telephoto lenses. Thus, during the zoom, there is a continuous perspective distortion, the most directly noticeable feature being that the background appears to change size relative to the subject. Hence, the dolly zoom effect can be broken down into three main components: the moving direction of the camera, the dolly speed, and the camera lens' focal length. A dolly zoom can create a sensation of disorientation and discomfort, producing the impression that the film historian Dan Aulier described as a "peculiar visual effect where the subject of the shot maintains the same size in the frame while the background appears to stretch or compress."
