The document discusses different types of camera shots that could be used in a film project. It describes establishing shots to set the scene, low angle shots to make something appear heroic or large, and high angle shots to make a subject seem small or vulnerable. It also mentions using zoom shots to emphasize people or objects, tracking shots to follow moving subjects, point-of-view shots to see from a character's perspective, extreme close-ups to show intense detail, close-ups to focus on faces, and long shots to show the context around a subject. The document considers how these various shots could be implemented in the film.

1. Camera Shots

2. Establishing Shot
An establishing shot is used to inform the
viewer of where the film is taking place. In my
own film, I’m going to use an establishing shot
of Tupton Hall School to ensure the audience
understands where the scene is located and also
of the age of the protagonist.

3. Low Angle Shot
A low angle shot is used to look up
from a lower position, often used to
give someone a heroic appearance or
emphasise the size of a building. I may
use this shot to look up at the church
of where I’m going to film to give the
film a more daunting effect.

4. High Angle Shot
High Angle shots are used by
looking down on a subject from
above to give the effect that they
are low down or small. I may use
this in my film on the female
protagonist to emphasise her
vulnerability to the audience.

5. Zoom Shot
• This technique is common in film and TV
to focus in on a certain person or object,
and is one of the simplest yet most
effective techniques. I will not use this too
much, but I will try to include it
to emphasize the villains hidden presence
at certain key moments

6. Tracking shot
• Tracking shot is when a camera follows a
person or an object physically moving with
the subject- This can be done using tracks,
handheld, ropes, Steady-cam etc. I could
use this in my film using a shopping trolley.

7. POV
• A point of view shot is a camera
shot which shows what the
character is seeing from their
perspective. I could use this in my
film to show the victim looking at
the villain and vice versa.

8. Extreme Close Up
The ECU (also known as XCU) gets right
in to the subject and shows extreme detail.
I couldn’t think of a reason to use this in
my film except perhaps when the villain
kills the victim.

9. Close Up
A close up is a camera angle that tightly frames a person or
am object focusing in on detail.
I’m considering using this in my film to show the horror on
the victims face.

10. Long Shot
• A long shot typically shows the
human figure and is usually
intended to place it in some
relation to its surrounding.
