The pan is when the camera moves horizontally from a fixed position. It is used in the film The Grand Budapest Hotel multiple times. It adds comedy to the film as well as a faster pace and more engaging action to a scene.

The dolly zoom is used to show a character having an intense internal experienced. It is used in the animated film Ratatouille to show the intense emotions eating the ratatouille is causing the critic, as he remembers the taste from his childhood and is having a flashback.

The track is used to immerse the audience in a scene. It is used in the film Shaun Of The Dead to let the audience experience the protagonist, Shaun’s, average day, as if the audience are experiencing it themselves. It also adds to the comedy, as a later scene in the film using the tracking shot, which mirrors the original scene exactly, shows how unobservant he is, as the audience would notice the zombies whilst being put in his shoes, whilst Shaun does not.
