Camera Framings

I have demonstrated my knowledge of camera angles by taking many photos at different angles to illustrate the frames. 

Extreme close up
This shot is to show detail to a specific area, for example someone's eyes.

Close up
This is a shot that you would usually take of a persons face, to show detail on facial features.

Medium close up 
A shot taken from the waist upwards. It shows the general facial expression of a person, and also see the upper body structure of the person. This shot is used a lot on magazine covers and on adverts.

Long shot
Typically used to show the entire person or object. This shot might be used in a clothing advertisement, so that the audience can see their whole outfit.

High angle
The camera angle is located above the eye-line and  the camera is looking down at the subject. The angle is often used to make the person look smaller, or portray emotion to the shot.

Low angle
The camera angle is located below the eye-line and the camera is looking up at the subject. This makes the person look larger and could be used to show power or confidence in a person.

Two shot 
This is simply a shot with two people in it.

Image framed to the right 
This is where the subject in the shot is positioned to the right of the frame.

Image framed to the left
When the subject in the shot is positioned to the left of the frame.

Central shot
When the subject is positioned in the centre of the frame, this shows the subject as a important figure.
