Hi guys today we are looking at all the different camera angles.

                                This first one is called an establishing shot, it shows where the
                                film takes place.




                                                    This is called a wide shot, it gives us more
                                                    information about where the characters are.




                                         This shot is called a medium shot. It is taken from the waist
                                         up because the lower half of the body does not need to be
                                         shown.




                                        This shot is called a close up. It zooms in on the main
                                        object/person to emphasise the importance of it.




                                                This is a medium close up shot. It is half way between
                                                close up and medium shot. It shows the face more
                                                clearly without getting uncomfortably close.
Extreme close up. Shows emotions of the
         character or even object being shown.




     This shot is called the point of view shot because it
     makes the audience believe that they are in that
     position.




This is called an over the shoulder shot. It is taken over the
shoulder, this can help the audience place the characters
in the setting.




This is called a shot reverse shot. This is where one
character is shown looking at another character (often off-
screen), Since the characters are shown facing in opposite
directions, the viewer assumes that they are looking at
each other.
This is low angle shot. Anywhere below the eye line,
looking up.




      A high angle shot is usually when the camera angle
      is located above the eyeline.
