Understanding of camera shots
By Deepak Dosanjh
Extreme close up
• This shot gives us a close up of the main
characters eyes. He is looking sternly away
from the camera suggesting that he is not a
friendly character. The fact he is the first
character we see and they have used an ECU
identified his importance.
Close up
• This close up clearly shows the emotions of this
character. He looks deep in thought and not happy
about whatever he his thinking about immediately
setting the tone for the film. The close up also
identifies his as a main character
Medium shot
• The medium shot here shows the costume of some
of the characters. As there is a group we do not know
if they are significant to the story or not but their
costume hints to the genre of the film
Long shot
• This long shot gives up some information about the
location of the film. We can see that it is an urban
area. It is winter, we can see this by the snow. Again
we see a group of men this time a larger group so we
can start to get an idea again of the genre of the film.
Extreme long shot.
• The extreme long shot is ambiguous of the
location but we can see that the area is an
urban are. The city is therefore perhaps
insignificant.
High angle shot
• We are looking down on the main character
here as he is pumping weights. He is in a
vulnerable position here but this is the fact he
is lifting weights which signifies his strength.
Low angle shot
• We aim slightly lower than eye level here showing we
are not on his level. He is important and powerful.
This character has a dominated the scene so far
which backs up this point.
