ken burned
ok, so i watched civil war and national parks clips from ken burns and kept looking to see when i would find his effect. It wasn't until i finished watching national parks that i realized that his effect was the use of zooming in on an image and panning across it... really? THAT'S his revolutionary style that got his own name for? Needless to say, in comparison to The Kid Stays in the Picture i was let down tremendously. Why would someone get his own name for something that only seems logical. Anyways National Parks was a much better job of it. It actually had a nice instance where you didn't know what was coming until you were on top of it then zoomed out to a nice shot of a cowboy silhouetted against a grand landscape. If anything the way that an image is revealed by the pan is nice but it really isn't much of a feat. I guess someone had to do it first.
