I just wanted to say, jerky-cam has it&#x27;s place (albeit often not in action scenes).<p>An example of good jerky-cam is HBO&#x27;s The Knick. It&#x27;s a turn-of-the-century period series that doesn&#x27;t have a sentimental veneer to it, but shows the gritty truth of life during that time.<p>To dispell any notion of that sentimental perspective, the shots are taken with unsteady, hand-held frame (they also forgo the vasoline lens you&#x27;d see on something like Masterpiece theatre).
