So the camera’s tilted at an angle. Is it because you’re not looking through, you’re looking at him?

Yeah.

Because you don’t want him to feel like he’s behind the lens, is that why?

more importantly, I can still hold the camera at the side of my head perfectly steady. But I need the audience to know that I’m paying attention to him, not the camera. What do they call that? A something tilt?

Yeah. Dutch.

A Dutch tilt. It’s a way of letting the audience know that I’m not paying attention to the camera.
