Camera shots



 Establishing shot: We have used this shot to introduce the location and set the scene of a young student sitting by her self in the corner.
 Long shot: A long shot is when the head to toe is visible and also shows plenty of the background. A lot of action can fit into this type of shot. This picture shows the bully approaching the lonely girl.
 Medium shot: This shot is used to show the head to waist. A medium shot is often used to show two actors together e.g in conversation. However, this picture only shows a medium shot of the bully pointing towards the student.
 Medium close up: We have used a medium close-up to feature the head to shoulder. Some facial expressions can be identified in this shot as well as the background. As you can see the student seems to be worried about what could happen. This is often used with an over-the-shoulder shot.
 Over-the-shoulder: This type of shot is shown from behind one person to see characters different points of view. In this picture you can see from the innocent students point of view.
 Extreme close up: We have used this shot to emphasis the detail in this picture. As you can see, this is a extreme close up of the bully strangling the girl.
 Close up: This is a close up on one aspect which is the sad girl crying in a corner. A close up also allows the audience to see emotions of the characters.
High angle: This sort of angle makes the subject look smaller and weaker. In this picture you can see the bullied girl sitting in the corner which makes her look small.
 Low angle: This is shot from below to make the subject look bigger and superior/ powerful than others. This picture is a low angle taken from the bullied girls view when she is sitting on the floor.
Unusual perspective: This sort of angle is to surprise the audience and to show danger. You can see in this shot that it shows some sort of mystery or tension.
