On the term pedestal, it would be raise/lower pedestal. The pedestal is the piece that the camera mounts to on a tripod or camera dolly. It’s also known as a camera mount, but technically that’s the piece that the pedestal attaches too. On set, at least in the independent groups in Dallas Texas area, They use dolly/push in/out. Since dollying is the physical form of zooming. You will also hear dolly on {Subjects or Item’s name} or dolly away from {Subjects or Item’s name}. In some of the newer groups, it’s as Wayne says. As for the term Truck, I haven’t heard it on set. I’ve only seen it written in the script. Usually they say tracking on {Subjects or Item’s name} that is being followed. This often times leads to a truck movement. It is more common in this area to hear Boom up and Boom down instead of pedestal. In Chicago area I heard pedestal more.
Note: I’m not a professional. I’ve only helped some friends on set and in some cases general public areas(AKA Gorilla Filming). This is just my experience.
