Practice Shots And Descriptions

Today we  looked at different camera shots and different camera angles.
We took 12 different pictures all with different camera shots.
We used a mixture of long shots, close ups and mid shots all at different angles.

The first shot was a low angle medium close up- a medium close up focuses on the chest and head.

The second shot was a high angle long shot- this is when the camera is held above the

subject and the long shot is used to get the whole of the subject in.

The third shot was an extreme close up of the time-focuses on one main thing and not any background is shown, this picture was taken to only show the time.

The fourth shot i did was a big close up of someone using a mobile phone- a big close up shows the face only and only little of the background

The fifth camera shot i did was a close up of someone in "nature'' A close up focuses mainly on the head and some of the shoulders and shows some of the surrounding area

The sixth camera shot used was a two shot in medium long shot.This shot has two subjects in and is a medium long shot, which means that their upper body is in the picture.

The seventh camera shot used was an over the shoulder shot of someone writing.An over the shoulder shot is simply a picture taken of someone from over their shoulder to see what they are doing, in this case the subject is writing.

The eighth camera shot used was a very long shot conveying isolation- a very long shot is one that is taken a fair distance away from the subject, it should show the whole of the subject and the area surrounding them. I think this photograph conveys isolation well as the subject is isolated from the surroundings. they are on their own.

The ninth camera shot was a medium close up- a medium clsoe up is one that focuses on the shoulders and the head of the subject in the photograph.

The tenth camera shot was a long shot- a long shot is used to get the whole of the subjects body in,and show the size of the subject involved.

The eleventh camera shot was a photograph which has connotations of friendship I used a picture of two people holding hands to portray the love and strong connection between the best of friends.

The final shot used was a photograph which has connotations of stress. I used a picture of someone olding a crumpled strectched piece of paper, as i feel this reflects the midset of someone when they are stressed.
