Camera Angles
Ariel Shot
this shot is filmed from high places and is often used to show a location (usually exotic and/or picturesque)
Close-Up
this shot is usually framed from above the shoulders and keeps only the actor’s face in full frame, capturing even the smallest facial variations.
Extreme Close-Up
this shot is traditionally used in films and focuses on parts of the actor’s face or body, like a twitching eye in order to convey intense and intimate emotions

Dolly Zoom
this shot sees the camera track forward from the actor whilst simultaneously zooming out, or vice-versa
Over-The-Shoulder Shot
this popular method helps the audience to really be drawn into the conversation and helps to focus in on one speaker at a time
Low-Angle Shot
This shot films from a lower point and shoots up at a character or subject, making them appear larger so as to convey them as heroic, dominant or intimidating
High-Angle Shot
this one films from a higher point and looks down on the character or subject, often isolating them in the frame
Two Shot
this is a medium shot that shows two characters within the frame. Pretty straight-forward but can be pivotal in establishing relationships between the characters
Wide/Long hot
this shot normally frames the subject from the top of their head to their feet whilst capturing their environment. It’s typically used to establish the setting of the particular scene
Master Shot
confused with the establishing shot, this identifies key signifies like who is in the shot and where it’s taking place. However, unlike the establishing shot that has a tendency to focus more on location
