Establishing shot
An establishing shot is usually the first shot of a new scene, designed to show the audience where the action is taking place in its setting.
Wide shot
A wide shot is similar to a panoramic photo.It allows audiences to se the whole scene and the content within it.
Long shot
The long shot involves the full length of a person or object.
Mid/Medium shot
Medium shots usually the characters waist up or waist down. The shot is mostly taken when there is talking involved.
Close up shot
A close up shot is a shot of a specific part e.g face.
Extreme close up
An extreme close up portrays extreme detail and its purpose is to give a dramatic effect.
POV (Point Of View)
The POV shot shows the perspective of the character. This is used to make the audience see it from a characters point of view.
Over the shoulder
This shot is taken from behind a characters shoulder. The back of the persons head often takes up most of the photo. The person facing the camera should not take up more than 1/3 of the frame. However this may vary depending on circumstances.
Two shot
Two shot generally shows a relation between two people or objects.
Overhead shot
The overhead shot is placed above the character (distance may vary) to show action and is much like a birds eye view.
