The document discusses different types of camera shots commonly used in film and television production. It provides descriptions of close up, mid, and establishing shots, as well as high angle, low angle, two shot, over the shoulder, tilt, and long shots. It notes that close ups, establishing, and long shots are often used in film openings to introduce characters and settings, while shots like high angle, low angle, two shot, and tilt shots tend to be used later in films when tension or drama is building.

1. Close Up

characters facial expression and
emotion.
This shot is sometimes used in film
openings so we are able to see the facial
expressions of that character.

facial expression and body language of the

This shot is usually used in film openings so
the audience is able to see what the
characters are like.

2. Point of View

seeing from his/her point of view.
This shot is also not often used in film
openings as this is normally used when
tension is building and their is lots of
action going on.

where this specific scene is being filmed.

this gives the audience an idea of where the
film/tv show is being filmed e.t.c

3. High Angle
In this shot we are looking down onto
the character as if we are belittling the
character as if the other character has
more power.
This shot isn't used very often in film
openings as this shot is more used if
tension is building e.g in the middle of
the film.

onto the audience or another character. This
shows that this character is more dominant
and that they have more power.

suspense and an edgy feel.
We don’t normally see this shot in a film

character so we are able to get an idea of
what they are like through body language.
