Camera angles

On Wednesday our class took lots of photos using different camera angles. We went down to the field to take these pictures. We split the group in two: one group was playing games and the other was taking pictures of the game group. The different shots we had to take were the low angle shot, the high angle shot, the medium shot, the close up shot, the estableshing shot, and the wide shot. These different shots are very useful and are often use in movies and videos. Here are the pictures that I took.

Low angle shot

You could use the low angle shot to make the viewer feel small or less powerful.

High angle shot

You could use the high angle shot to show things that are flat on the ground.

Medium shot

You could use the medium shot to focus on a few people.

Close up shot

You could use the close up shot to focus on one persons emotions.

Estableshing shot

You could the estableshing shot to show the setting.

Wide shot

You could use the wide shot to show a group of people.
