Example Camera Shots/Angles

Mid shot

I used a mid shot for this photo so I could demonstrate her loneliness. Her hands and body posturer have been placed like that on purpose to add that uncomfortable look. I used a mid shot as I needed a good amount of her body to illustrate he positioning. 

Close Up/ Low angle

I used a close up to illustrate that we are looking at the exit sign meaning someone's probably running away/out of the building. A low angle was used to demonstrate the power that the sign has and how it leads so many people to safety. 

Canted Show

In this specific shot i felt that a canted showed would go fell as it gives the audience that sense of discomfort and how each girl seems to really be looking at the audience as if he/she is someone they do not like. The tilting of each girls head reinforces the sense of discomfort.

Establishing shot

I used an establishing shot to represent the new location for the viewers, once having a shot of the library for about 2 seconds we are able to tell that the the next scene will be placed in the library.

Long Shot/ Eye Level

I wanted to use a long shot to represent her full body posture and the surrounding she is in. As she is standing in the middle of a long corridor we are able to tell she is lost, probably due to how BIG the school is. I felt that Eye level would be best as it would give the audience that sense that the camera is another person and we are following her.

Worm's eye view

I wanted to use an effect worms eye view so we used a great software provided by Apple for iphones which places the available light where we want it (just by a touch of our fingers!). We just flipped the camera on the iphone and took the photo. This is shown to be a worms eye view as its as if the audience is looking up at the humans and that they as an audience are vulnerable.

Extreme Close UP

I used an extreme close up in this situation to tell the emotion of the cat, just by the cats eye which is closed we are able to tell she is tired/sleeping which could be due to a long day of work/play.

High angle

I used a high angle so that us as an audience looked like we have more power to  the people we are looking down on someone.  In this photo we can tell that the boy is sad and scared of us as he's looking up at us with a very emotional face.

Bird's eye view

This is a shot from above in the sky looking down at target. It can express how quiet or how bust a certain area is, it also delivers a lot of mise-en-scene. This shot is very effective in a chase scene.
