Continuous shot
A continuous shot, also known as a long take or single-take shot, is a filmmaking technique where an entire scene is captured in one unbroken camera movement without cuts. This method creates a seamless, immersive experience, allowing viewers to feel as though they are observing the moment in real-time. It requires precise choreography, coordination, and technical skill to maintain smoothness and timing. Continuous shots are often used to build tension, highlight details, or showcase the environment, offering a visually engaging way to tell a story without interruption.
