Camera Shots

In today's lesson we took pictures of different camera angles, we then took notes down off the board about the different angles, and became more familiar with them as we got shown the different angles.  We then took a camera and tryed out the different angles for ourselves, as we had a list of shots we had to get from around the school, I was familar with using the camera, and I have done Media in previous years, so therefore I thought this was an easy task.  We then uploaded the pictures we had took onto the computer and the ones that werent the exact shots that we needed were deleted and re-took.
  • A low angle medium close up- This is were the camera is pointing upwards to the person, only getting their top half captured.
  • A high angle long shot- This shot is took from above the person with the whole body being captured.
  • An extreme close up of the time- This is a shot that is very close to the image being taken.. In this case it is a clock.
  • A big close up of someone using a phone- This is a shot taken with the shoulders upwards of a person, holding a phone.
  • A close up of someone in 'nature'- This is a shot taken from the shoulders upwards in a nature environment.
  • A 2 shot in medium long shot- This is a shot with 2 people being captured with the knees upwards.
  • An over the shoulder of someone writing- This is an image over the shoulder took of a person. In this case its of the person writing.
  • A very long shot conveying isolation- This shot is the whole body (and quite far away) from the person with no-one surrounding them. (Showing they are on their own).
  • A medium close up- This is a shot with the shoulders upwards of a person.
  • A Long shot- This fits the whole body in the image.
  • A photograph which has connotations of friendship.- This shot is an image that is not allowed any person in it, but you have to use your imagination to get a shot that makes you think of friendship. For example just 2 hands holding.
  • A photograph which has connotations of stress- This shot is an image that is not allowed any person in it, but you have to use your imagination to get a shot that makes you think of stress. For example a pile of school books.
