Camera Angles

We have recently been studying different camera angles and their effects. Here is a list of different camera angles we have looked at in class:

• Establishing shot
• Master shot
• Point of view shot
• Low angle shot
• High angle shot
• Long shot
• Extreme long shot
• Close up
• Extreme close up
• Mid shot
• Two shot
• Wide angle shot
• Framing shot

We also learn't that when using a variety of camera angles it is important to stick to the 180 degree rule to keep accurate continuity. The image bellow shows how the 180 degree rule works.
