Camera shots:

In groups of three we went  around the school and took our first attempts at camera shots.

Long Shot:


The first shot we used was a long shot, this is used to set a scene. Its usually shows the location and landscape so that the audience knows where the clip is set.










                                                                                        Low Angle Shot:



This shot is from a low angle, this is done to make to object or person seem larger than they actually are. The effect of this is that it gives the illusion that the person is of high power or importance. Therefore the audience can learn about the character before they are introduced into the scene.







                                                                                        





Extreme Close Up:


The next shot is when the camera is extremely close to the object or person being filmed. This is done to show detail so that the audience can understand whats happening easier so is therefore more engaging. For example an extreme close up on a face can show the expressions and emotions of what the character is going through.




              Tilt Shot/Canted Angle:



The next shot we created was at a titled angle. This is usually used to make a scene more dramatic or disorientated. The effect of this is to make the scene more intriguing and interesting for the audience.














Over The Shoulder Shot:

Next we used an over the shoulder shot which is generally used during conversations between two people. Its effective as it sets the location as well as being able to see both characters point of view of the conversation. 













                                                                                          Establishing Shot:



An establishing shot is generally a wide shot at the beginning of a scene to show where the action is taking place to the audience. The effect of this is that the audience can understand the location of the scene.













Three Different Views Of The Same Shot:



Finally we used three different shots of the same object.This is effective as it shows how camera angles can make things look larger, smaller or wider. These shots therefore can be used according to the atmosphere needed to be created within the scene.
