Using Camera Shots

Hey guys I'm back with another blog that's actually long overdue lol (laugh out loud). School has really been stressing me out and I'm trying my hardest to stay up to date with everything so bare with me. Anyways in today's blog I'm going to be explaining to you all six different camera shots which are:

• Long shot- shows the subject from top to bottom or head to toe if its a person, without necessarily having to fill up the whole frame. This shot is made to set the scene and the characters place in it.
• Wide-shot- A shot with a greater horizon plane of action, showing the greater depths of field.
• Two shot- A shot in which two subjects appear in the frame. This shot is often used to show tension, romance, or action in a scene.
• Mid shot- shows part of the subject in more detail. For a person, medium shots usually frames them from waist up. It's commonly used in films as it captures and focuses heavily on the character while still showing the environment.
• Establishing shot- This shot is used to show the location and environment of a scene. It's also used to establish mood and give the audience visual clues regarding the time of the situation.
• Close up- A shot in which the subject fills up most of the screen or appears really large in detail. This shot is usually taken up at a close range.
