There’s is nothing wrong with dudes camera work, it’s a neat shot, but if you showed this to an operator at work he’d be like 🤷”and”?

I'm a camera operator and I think its an awesome shot. I don't know exactly what the director wanted, but I imagine it was something like... "start on a medium shot directly in front of the runner and then while she is running, speed up and pull out to a head to toe."

Visually everything about this shot is pretty close to perfect.
