Different Shot Types
This document defines and describes different camera shot types used in filmmaking, including:
- Extremely wide shots and very wide shots which show more of the surroundings and less of the subject. These are often used as establishing shots.
- Wide shots show the subject and some surroundings, allowing visibility of the subject's feet, head, and body language.
- Medium close ups show the subject's upper body and face clearly.
- Close ups focus on a subject's face or feature in great detail.
- Extreme close ups zoom in further to show facial expressions and reactions like the eyes.
- Over the shoulder shots look over a subject or object, covering 1/3 of the frame
Different types of camera shots
The document describes different types of camera shots including extreme wide shots, wide shots, mid shots, medium close ups, close ups, extreme close ups, point of view shots, over the shoulder shots, and 2-shots. Each shot type provides a different level of detail and perspective, from establishing shots that show just the location to extreme close ups that focus on one small area of the subject. The various shots can be used to provide information about characters, focus attention, show emotions, build audience relationships, and frame conversations.

Camera shots and angles
This document defines and describes various camera shots and angles used in television and film production including long shots, establishing shots, point of view shots, two shots, close ups, high and low angles, over the shoulder shots, medium close shots, overhead shots, and tilted shots. It explains that long shots show a large subject and surroundings, establishing shots set the context, point of view shots see through a character's eyes, two shots involve dialogue between two characters, and close ups focus attention on a person's expression or object. High and low angles manipulate viewer perspective while over the shoulder, medium close, overhead, and tilted shots provide different framing and perspectives of the action.
Camera shots and angles
Long shots and wide shots show a large subject and their surroundings to establish context. Point of view shots enable the audience to see from a character's perspective. Two shots show two characters in dialogue. Close ups focus attention on a person's expression or actions. High and low camera angles influence how powerful or important a character seems. Over the shoulder shots look from behind one person at another subject. Medium close shots still show the setting while focusing on actors. Overhead shots are made from directly above the action. Tilted shots disorient the viewer by slanting vertical lines.

Specific shots are identified for how they will be used, such as long shots for a montage scene and close ups to emphasize facial expressions. The document aims to clearly depict the visual plan for shooting the trailer scenes.
Camera shots
An establishing shot is usually the first shot of a scene and shows the audience where the action is taking place through a wide shot or extreme wide shot. An extreme wide shot shows the surroundings so far away that the character is not visible, placing the subject in its environment. Common shots include close-ups that show extreme detail of a person or object, mid shots that show some detail while giving an impression of the whole subject, and two shots that allow viewers to see two characters together.
Camera angles & shots
Camera shots can be categorized by distance from the subject: long shots show the full figure and environment, medium shots show from mid-thigh up, and close-ups show a body part or facial expression. Shots are used to establish scenes, show reactions, and manipulate the audience's perspective of characters through camera angles like high angles, low angles, and eye level. Reverse angles cut between a subject's point of view and what they are seeing.

Camera shots and angles
Camera shots and angles are used in filmmaking to help viewers understand different parts of a film from various perspectives. There are many different types of shots that show different amounts of a subject or scene, from extreme long shots that show a small subject in a large environment to extreme close-ups that focus on a small detail. Camera angles also influence meaning by placing the camera above, below, or at an angle to the subject to convey different impressions like power dynamics or tension. Both shots and angles are deliberately chosen by filmmakers to achieve specific purposes and impact how audiences perceive and interpret what they see.

An establishing shot provides context by showing where the action takes place. A wide shot shows a full scene while a long shot frames a person or object as most important. Medium shots are usually from the waist up and are used during dialogue. Close ups emphasize specific details while extreme close ups are dramatic. Point of view shots see through a character's eyes. Over the shoulder shots frame a person from behind another's head. Two shots show relationships. Overhead shots provide a bird's eye view. Camera angles like high and low manipulate perspective and power dynamics. Camera movements like pans, tilts, tracks, zooms and dollys follow or emphasize action.
