The document discusses various techniques for framing shots and controlling the camera including: 1) Aspect ratios, fields of view, composition guidelines like the rule of thirds, and using headroom, noseroom and leadroom when framing subjects. 2) Manipulating the z-axis with lenses and foreground, middle ground and background to create a sense of depth. 3) Controlling camera movement by keeping the camera still and letting the subject move, using a tripod for stability, and preferring dolly shots over zooming in or out.
