Different camera shots and angles can be used to convey different meanings. An extreme close up focuses on facial expressions, a two shot or mid shot shows the relationship between two people, and a long shot provides context of the whole person and background. High and low angles manipulate perspective to make someone seem powerful or weak. A three shot displays the dynamic between three individuals, while a mid shot reveals body language.
