53
Q

This makes your subject appear small against their location. You can use an _____ to make your subject feel distant or unfamiliar. It can also make your subject feel overwhelmed by its location. Of all the various camera shots,, consider using the extreme long shot when you need to emphasize the location or isolation.

A

Extreme long shot (ELS) or Extreme Wide Shot (EWS)

54
Q

If your subject is a person then his/her whole body will be in view – but not filling the shot. There should be a good deal of space above, and below your subject. Use a ______ to keep your subject in plain view amidst grander surroundings.

A

Long Shot (LS) or Wide Shot (WS)

55
Q

These can be used to feature multiple characters in a single shot. It lets your subject fill the frame while keeping emphasis on scenery.

A

Full Shot (FS)

56
Q

This frames the subject from roughly the knees up. It splits the difference between a full shot and a medium shot. You can always frame camera shots from any angle as well, so don’t be afraid to think about medium long shots when behind a character.

A

Medium Wide Shot (MWS)

The close-up shot is near enough to register tiny emotions, but not so close that we lose visibility.

A

60

66
Q

Another element of camera shots to consider is the perspective of the shot. An overthe-shoulder shot shows your subject from behind the shoulder of another character.

A

Over-The-Shoulder Shot (OTS)

Q

An over-the-hip shot is similar to over-the-shoulder in that the camera is placed with a character’s hip in the foreground, and the focus subject in the plane of acceptable focus.

A

Over-The-Hip Shot (OTH)

72
Q
