▲Aka the [[Bodymount Cam]] or [[Snorri Cam]]: The camera is mounted on the actor's body and aimed at the face, so as the actor moves, his or her face remains steady and in focus while the background bounces and moves. Similar to the [[Head Cam]], but the footage is looking in the opposite direction.
Its use is normally for when the subject is moving quickly but one wants to keep a strong emphasis on the actor's facial expressions. Since it gives a continued shot of his face while in a slightly surreal manner the world starts to slide and shift, it can be particularly effective when the subject is in a state of confusion, shock or disgust, as we get to keep a good look at his face at a point when he is erratically stumbling around and we get to experience the discomforting and unsettling movements of the world around him.
