This document discusses various camera shots taken while filming two characters running through a forested area. Wide shots provide context of the surrounding environment and show the characters from head to knees. A pedestal pan captures their facial expressions and movement from a high angle as they are watched. A mid-long shot pans left as the characters walk among trees. Point of view shots turn left and right to portray their journey from the character's perspective and set the scene. Landscape shots transitioned to mid shots as the characters ran past the camera in a spontaneous take.
