Camera Angles

 

Establishing shot

 An establishing shot is designed to inform the audience where the action will be taking place. It shows the relationship between people and objects, and establishes the scene's geography.

Worms Eye Shot

A worm's-eye view is a view of an object from below, as though the observer were a worm.

Birds Eye Shot 

A bird's-eye view is an elevated view of an object from above, with a perspective as though the observer were a bird

Point Of Veiw Shot

This angle is shot as if the viewer were looking through the eyes of a specific character.

Over the Shoulder Shot

      

a shot in which the camera is placed just behind an "off-screen" actor or object so that their shoulder is in the frame while you capture the "on-screen" actor's coverage.

Long Shot

Long Shot Shows the subject from top to bottom; for a person, this would be head to toes, though not necessarily filling the frame. 

Medium Shot 

A medium shot, mid shot, or waist shot is a camera angle shot from a medium distance.

Close Up Shot

A type of shot that tightly frames a person or object. 

Extreme Close Up Shot

An extreme close-up shot frames a subject very closely, often so much so that the outer portions of the subject are cut off by the edges of the frame.

Eye Level Shot

An eye level shot refers to when the level of your camera is placed at the same height as the eyes of the characters in your frame.
