1. Informing Ideas
Wide Shot -
A wide shot is mainly used to either show the scale of a
giant setting that the subject is in, it can also be used
to emphasize the loneliness of the subject. It is taken
from a long distance away and shows a lot of the set
around the subject.

2. Tracking Shot –
The tracking shot follows a moving subject, this can be
a many varying speeds. It can be tracking a subject that
is running or a subject that is walking through the
scene. Normally, the shot is done by having the camera
on a dolly or rail to keep a steady track with the
subject.

3. Tilt Up/Down –
Tilting the camera up or down is regularly used to
reveal something to the audience, tilting is most
commonly used to reveal something that is tall in
comparison to the viewpoint of the audience. Tilting up
or down is also used creatively to dramatically
introduce a character to the scene.

4. Low Angle –
The low angle represents superiority in the subject, this
is usually used to establish dominance in a scene that is
introducing a villain or can be used in a fighting scene.
This is done by making the subject seem “larger” than
the audience, along with the other subject in the
scene.
High Angle –

5. The high angle is the opposite to the low angle, it
represents, it represents inferiority and is used to
establish weakness in the subject by making them look
small relative to the audience’s perspective.
Dutch Tilt Angle –
A dutch tilt angle is used to make the audience feel off,
like something strange or weird is going to happen. It is
done by tilting the camera close to around 45 degrees,
which makes everything slightly tilted to the left or
right. It is used when something bad has happened or
something strange is about to happen, often behind
the camera.
