Shots and Angles


Forms of angles and shots


                High Angle
An angle where the camera looks 
   down at a subject from above


Full shot                     
A shot of a person from head to toe
and can be used to make statements
about a subjects physicality and
present a character in 
all their glory    

 
            Ground level shot
Where the camera is placed all the way down 
  the ground, sometimes can be low angle. 
Shooting from ground level can be a stylish
    way to track a character movement 
  or to capture details within the settings
Wide shot                            
Positions the camera subjects far from camera
to visually represent their relationship to their
environment 


                Shoulder shot
The lower position gives the illusion of a
   low angle shot without its heavier
                   connotation





                                                  Medium Full Shot                    
arranged from the top of the subjects head 
to just be low their waist            
     


           
                    Low angle
Use to typically make a subject look more 
                   powerful.
     Establishing shot                        
It is typically wide enough to establish         
the geography, time of day and show the scale of subjects
in relation to their environment                

         
                                 Dutch angle
      A shot that skews the horizontal axis of the frame
for an off-kilter image that produces a variety of effects.


                                                                                                     Medium Close up
                                                                                         A shot where the subject frames from mid chest                                                                                             from just above their head. A shot where
                                                                                            It prioritizes story and character detail
