Camera Shots
2
Extreme Long Shot

• used as a scene-setting, establishing shot. Shows
  the audience what they can expect from that
  location. For instance if the shot showed a
  picture of the white house then, it can be
  assumed that the film will make reference to the
  American politics.

3
Mid shot

• Contains a figure from the knees/waist up and is
  normally used for dialogue scenes, or to show
  some detail of action. Directors might use this
  shot to distance the character from the audience,
  in an attempt to make them seem isolated and
  lonely.

4
Close up

• A certain feature or part of the subject takes up
  the whole frame. This shot magnifies the object.
  Often to reveal a specific detail to the
  audience. This shot can be used to let the
  audience into the characters life and gain trust
  for that individual.

5
High angle shot

• A shot looking down on a character or subject
  often isolating them in the frame. Making them
  seem as a less important character or showing
  that they have lower status/power within their
  group/gang.

6
Low angle

• A shot looking up at a character/subject often
  making them look bigger in the frame. It can make
  everyone look heroic and/or dominant. This
  highlights their level of power and authority
  which they have. This can make the audience feel
  scared and intimidated.

7
Two Shot

• A shot of two people, framed similarly to a mid
  shot. Usually showing their conversation, and
  body language. Depending on the angle it can show
  the status of the characters, the taller one is
  often the more dominating one.

8
Over the shoulder

• A shot where the camera is positioned behind one
  subject's shoulder, usually during a
  conversation. It highlights the characters facial
  expression so that the audience get a greater
  understanding of the emotion of the character.

9
Extreme close up

• Would show only the mouth or eyes, with no
  background detail whatsoever. This is a very
  artificial shot, and can be used for dramatic
  effect.  This shot highlights the importance of
  that detail, it would probably have significance
  and be linked later on in the film. An extreme
  close up of a characters eyes can help the
  audience trust the character.

10
Point of view

• This is shot which the view point as if the
  camera was actually the characters eyes, giving
  their perspective. Used frequently in horror and
  thriller films, right before someone is killed or
  something bad occurs in the narrative. This shot
  puts the audience in the view point of the
  character, gives them an insight into their mind
  set and mental state.

11

• A shot that depicts an entire character or object
  from head to foot, often shows a bit of the
  scenery also. Showing off the characters outfit
  and shows the audience the real life height and
  weight of the individual.
