.07 - Using Camera Shots cont.

I took these pictures in my room with my cell phone camera. Two difficulties I had during this section was differentiating the bird's-eye-view shot and the aerial shot and taking a POV shot.

 Two-Shot:

A shot in which two subjects appear in frame. Usually used for romance or tension

Aerial Shot:

Showing a location from high overhead. Usually shot from helicopters, drones, or with miniatures.

Bird's-Eye View:

A  high angle shot, shot directly overhead and from a distance. Shot gives the audience a wider view this shot can reveal a variety of things including things out of a subjects view. Shot is usually taken from a crane, helicopter or drone.

Point-Of-View Shot:

A shot to imitate what a certain character is seeing. Puts the audience in the head of the character. Lets the audience experience a subject's emotional state examples of this is characters waking up or looking through binoculars

Over-The-Shoulder Shot:

Commonly used shot where a subject is shot from behind the shoulder of another. Useful for showing a character's conversation or reaction
