This document discusses different types of shots used in media including establishing shots to set the scene, medium shots to show surroundings while keeping the main focus on a character or object, and close-ups to direct attention onto a character's emotion. It also covers point-of-view shots from a character's perspective, over-the-shoulder shots to see through their perspective while still seeing other aspects, and high and low angle shots to convey power dynamics in a scene.
