For one, the tracking shot;
This is when the camera is fixed to a dolly and moved alongside the actors as they power walk through various settings. This gives the impression the audience are a part of the action. By moving the camera the audience is being moved a long with them.
Another type of shot is the crabbing shot;
This is similar to the tracking shot however it moves from side to side, like... a crab. This achieves a similar effect to the tracking shot. Which is brilliant for creating a power walk scene!
Mid shots are a recurring shot type in this montage. This shot presents the characters and introduces them, and their personalities to the audience. A lot can be told from this shot about the role of the character within the film. e.g. in Kill Bill, the mid shots of the hench men portray them to be a rowdy bunch of guys that want to beat people up.
Close ups of feet are used as well, this seems to present the characters similar to the mid shot. These shots tend to start at the walking feet and pan up to finish as a mid shot.
Long shots are used to introduce the scene of the film, which creates the atmosphere and suggests to the audience how they should feel in this particular scene. It also gives a further look into the characters and their reasoning's for walking for so long..
The soundtrack, I feel is the most effective part of walking scenes, it adds a sense of drama and excitement. It also gives the characters empowerment and makes them seem superior to the audience and the others around them. It gives a sense that they are the people everyone wants to be.
