Camera Shots, Angles and Movement

In this lesson we looked at camera shots, angles and movement all used on a film set, TV programme or a viral video. The following screen grabs are the camera shots we looked at during the lesson:

 Zoom in shot on Edward's eyes. We can tell this by how close Edward is to the camera, and we can see his eyes clearly.

                                                

Low angle shot on Jacob's transformation from human to wolf. We can tell this by how high the wolf is in the air, this allows the audience to get a sense of fear whilst watching this scene.

                                            

​​​​   Medium long shot of Edward and Bella, we know this because they are not too close to the camera and not too far away, so that we (as an audience) can see them properly and clearly.

  Reverse angle shot from behind Edward's shoulder, we can tell this by the way in which the camera has been postitioned. The camera is just over the shoulder of Edward, so it gives the audience a view from Edward's point of view and the angle in which he is looking.

            Dutch angle shot of Jasper in the baseball scene. A dutch angle is an angle where  the character or protagonist is differently alligned to the camera. In this screen shot, Jasper is at a slight angle in comparison to the camera; the camera is straight.
