FRAME
SHOTS AND ANGLES
Introduction
When TAKING, or creating them yourself, you have
to think about important factors: The FRAMING of
the shot and the ANGLE of the shot.
When describing different cinematic shots,
different terms are used to indicate the amount of
subject matter contained within a frame, how far
away the camera is from the subject, and the
perspective of the viewer. Each different shot has a
different purpose and effect.
FRAMING:
SHOT AND ANGLE SIZES
Framing is the presentation of visual elements in an image,
especially the placement of the subject in relation to other
objects.
When taking a picture or making a film we focus on the size of
the human body and the angle or the point of view used.

SHOT ANGLES
The camera angle marks the specific location at which
the movie camera or videocamara is placed to take a
shot.
EYE LEVEL A la altura de los ojos
Eye level shots are used to show
extreme detail. They make the
shot very personal and show
emotion.
LOW ANGLE Contrapicado
Mouth to eyes
A low angle is used to
show the subject as
superior, powerful and
intimidating. This angle
aims to make the
audience fearful of the
subject.
HIGH ANGLE Picado
This angle is used to make
the subject appear small
and inferior which creates
sympathy.
BIRDS EYE Cenital

above an object and is
normally used to show a
large scale location. For
example; a city.
OBLIQUE ANGLE Plano aberrante
