Top Camera shots and angles used in chick flicks

Here is a list I made of top camera shots and angles used in chick flicks.

 

1.Establishing shot

This is usually a long shot that shows where the setting of the film is taken place and sometimes includes objects and figures to help us recognise the place such as big ben being shown in London.

 

2.Close up shot

These are mainly used to show the emotions of the character to the audience normally sad or happy.

 

3.Medium shot

This is used widely among mostly all films because it works well when the character needs to deliver information and shows some of the background in the frame.

 

4.Shot reverse shot

This shows a relationship between two people when having a conversation.

5.Wide Shot

These are used so that the audience can clearly see the objects and immediate environment around them. This technique should not be overused as it can stop more finer details to be seen.

 

6. Tracking shot

Normally used behind someone or in front to show them walking most films show this by tracking someone walking down a busy street.

7.High angle shot    

   This shot makes the scene more dramatic with this shot the camera looks down on the subject making them look weaker and similar to a close up shot it shows the characters emotions from their actions.
