1. The document discusses various shot types and camera angles used in filmmaking, including jump cuts, cross-cutting, cutaways, shot/reverse shots, panning shots, tracking shots, graphic matches, and eyeline matches. 2. It also covers long takes, short takes, low angle shots, high angle shots, close ups, long shots, and medium long shots. 3. Each shot type or camera angle is used to achieve a certain effect, such as adding tension, following a subject, portraying a character as superior or inferior, and focusing attention on facial expressions or the surrounding environment.

1. Shot Types/Camera Angle Research

2. Jump Cut
Cuts to a shot with less than 30 degrees difference in camera This can happen in live studio settings, when two cameras

3. Cross-cutting
Cuts to a different narrative thread or character, back and forth
In this way the action can be broken up to enhance tension

4. Cutaway
Cut to a significant narrative element (eg, a bomb ticking)
This again adds to the tension of the narrative and makes the situation more entertaining to watch

5. Shot/Reverse Shot
Jumping from one shot to another shot and visa versa
This is usually used for filming dialogue (conversations)

6. Panning Shot
The camera is fixed but it swivels on a horizontal axis
This technique can be used to follow a subject or used if it's from someone's perspective

7. Tracking Shot
A camera fixed or a dolly and moves along a track.
This is again used to follow someone and gives a smooth glide

8. Graphic Match
The camera has an object in view then the camera cuts to another object of a very similar shape For example, an amber traffic light cutting into a rising sun; relatively same shape and colour

9. Eyeline Match
The character is looking in a particular direction then the next cut gives you a shot of what they This makes the audience go from third person perspective to first person, it includes the audience

10. Long Take
A scene which has no editing for a long period of time.
This can make time seem to drag on longer than it actually has and also it can raise tension within

11. Short Take
The opposite of a long take; a scene that has a lot of editing in a short period of time
This can make time seem to go faster than it has and this can also raise tension within a situation

12. Camera Angles – Low Angle
The camera is on the ground, looking up into the air.
This portrays the character as a superior figure.

13. High Angle
The camera is in the air, looking down to the ground
This portrays the character involved as an inferior figure.

14. Close Up
A shot that tightly frames a person or an object.
This makes you focus on the characters facial expression and

15. Long Shot
A big shot that shows a full body of character and some of the background behind them
This gives them a more dramatic effect on their appearance and it gives you a better view of their

16. Medium Long Shot
This shot is from the top of the characters knee upwards, you can see some of the background also
This shot can be used when characters are in conversation

17. Extreme Close-up
This shot is usually just the characters face or a small part of their face
This shot is used to show extreme emotion such as happiness or sadness.
