Camera Shots

To practice and improve our use of camera shots we took a series of photos all took at different angles and used them to show a story. This is the result.

This is an establishing shot. I am using this shot so the audience can see where the story is going to take place as the audience can see the surroundings.This shot will also set the mood, the scene is isolated which will give the scene a mysterious mood as the audience will wonder where the characters are and what will happen

This is a long shot. I am using this shot to establish the characters positions and show what is happening between them. This shot is effective as it shows that there is nothing surrounding them and creates suspicion. This shot is also effective as you cannot see the characters face creating mystery.

This is an over the shoulder shot. I am using this to create mystery as the audience can not see the characters face so they do not their identity. This is also being to show what the character is looking at.

This is a close up. This is being used to show the characters facial expression and also establishes the characters position and what is happening.

This is a medium shot. This is being used to show both characters and show their body language. This shot creates suspense as the audience can now see that the character is being followed and they cannot see their identity due to the hood that the character is wearing.

This is an extreme close up. This shot is being used to give the audience an idea of who the stalker is and a brief glimpse of what they look like, however this also creates mystery as you cannot see the stalkers whole face which creates mystery.

This is a tilt shot. This is being used to portray an unsettled mood and to connote movement showing that the stalker is closing in on the character.

This is a low angle shot. This is used to make the character seem vulnerable as they are looking down on them making them seem smaller.
