Camera shots

Camera angles are very important when its comes to film. Where a camera is positioned and how it is positioned will help create different emotions to be felt by the viewers. 

Establishing shot
Using establishing shots helps set the scene.Establishing shots are normally exterior,example:landscapes or a building








Long shot
Mid shot

A long shots shows the whole of the human body,but you can also see surrounding exterior,so you are still able to identify where the person is.








A mid shot usually shows from the waist up.These scenes are usually used for dialogue or to show the audience specific detail.


Extreme close up
Close ups concentrates on either a face or a specific part of mise en scĂ©ne. The background is usually blurred  







Very extreme close up
Again similar to close up, but the focus is mainly on one specific detail , like an eye or lips for example.Usually the full face will not be in shot.
