The document lists 10 common camera shots used in filmmaking: aerial shot, arc shot, close up, tracking shot, establishing shot, medium shot, long shot, over the shoulder shot, pan, and low angle shot. It then provides an example of how some of these shots (establishing shot, close up, and tracking shot) could be used in the opening of a romantic crime film to set the location, convey emotions, and show action.

12. My film opening
 In m film opening I will try to use a variety of
different shots to make it more visually
exciting.
 Most importantly I will try to use an
establishing shot so the audience know where
it taking place, but also a close up to convey
emotions which is important in a romance
movie. Lastly, I will try to use a tracking shot
to see crime and action taking place.
