1. There are several types of film shots that establish different perspectives and levels of intimacy. These include establishing shots, wide shots, medium shots, close-ups, bird's-eye views, over the shoulder shots, low shots, two shots, and high angle shots. 2. Establishing shots set the scene, wide shots provide context, medium shots show characters from belly button to head, and close-ups create intimacy by focusing on faces. 3. Other shots like bird's-eye views, low shots, and high angles manipulate perspective to make subjects seem small, powerful, or swallowed by the setting. Two shots and over the shoulder shots frame multiple subjects or points of view.

1. 11 Film Shots
1. ESTABLISHING SHOT- An establishing shot establishes the setting of a scene.
When we see a shot of the sun setting behind the exterior of a building where our scene
takes place, we have seen an establishing shot.
2. Wide shot (ws)-reveals where the scene is taking place. Also referred to as a long shot or
master shot, a wide shot helps orient the audience. A wide shot also gives the actors room to
move within a shot, without the camera having to follow them. Medium shots and close-ups
are often cut into a wide shot for variation.
3. Medium shot - in film making is a standard shot that usually shows a character from belly
button to slightly above the actor's head. A medium shot is more intimate than a wide shot,
but provides more breathing space for the actor than a close-up.
4. Close up or single, is usually from above a person's chest or neck to just slightly above the
top of her head. If you get in closer, so that the actor's head fills most of the frame, you have
a tight close-up. Going in even tighter, to a person's eyes or mouth, gives you an extreme
close-up. Close-ups create a sense of intimacy and the feeling that you're involved in the
scene. They also reveal emotion in the eyes or the hint of a smile.

2. 5/6. Medium close up - If you get in closer, so that the actor's head fills most of the frame, you
have a tight close-up. Going in even tighter, to a person's eyes or mouth, gives you an extreme
close-up. Close-ups create a sense of intimacy and the feeling that you're involved in the scene.
7. Birds eye view-bird's-eye shot refers to a shot looking directly down on the subject. The
perspective is very foreshortened; making the subject appears short and squat. This shot can be
used to give an overall establishing shot of a scene, or to emphasize the smallness or insignificance
of the subjects. These shots are normally used for battle scenes or establishing where the character
is.
8. over shoulder. - In film or video, an over the shoulder shot (also over shoulder, OS, OTS, or third-person
shot) is a shot of someone or something taken from the perspective or camera angle from
the shoulder of another person (Another person’s point of view,)

3. 9. Low shot – (low angle shot)- is a shot from a camera angle positioned low on the vertical axis,
anywhere below the eye line, looking up.it also makes someone look bigger than they are and
powerful.
10. A Two shot is a type of shot employed in the film industry in which the frame encompasses a
view of two people (the subjects). The subjects do not have to be next to each other, and there are
many common two-shots which have one subject in the foreground and the other subject in the
background.
11. In film, a high angle shot is usually when the camera angle is located above the eye line.
With this type of angle, the camera looks down on the subject and the point of focus often get
"swallowed up" by the setting.
