Lesson Review

I have learnt multiple types of camera shots:
1. Over the Shoulder Shot
2. Two Shot/Medium
3. Wide-Shot/Established
4. Point of View
5. Medium close-up
6. Extreme close-up
7. Crowd Shot

Camera Angles:
1. High Angle
2. Low Angle
3. Tilted/Canted/Dutch Angle

Camera Movement:
1. Panning Shot
variable - Whip Pan shot
2. Tilt
3. Tracking Shot
 
I have also learnt of the Rule of Thirds and Depth of Field types i.e. Shallow depth of field and deep depth of field.

Shallow depth of field is when the camera focuses on the closest subject in the environment; this shows importance of the character being focused on. Deep depth of field is when the camera focuses on something that is behind the foreground. The use of multiple depth of fields allows the director to create the effect of the different importance of characters. It can also be used during conversations when the people talking are not necessarily in the same instance. This can be done back and forth to show the character talking.
