⋆。°✩ Camera Shot Collage ✩⋆。°

The mid shot shows the subject from the torso up which is used when people are talking.
The long shot shows the subject’s full body.
The two shot shows two people in a shot usually from the torso up, talking or interacting.
Point of view show shows what it would look like through the characters eyes.
The close up shows the subject’s full face.
An extreme close up zooms in further on someone’s face to make viewers uncomfortable sometimes.
A high angle shows the subject from high up, making them look vulnerable.
The bird’s eye view shows the subject from directly above, usually used to show the setting.
Canted angle shows the camera tilted, usually showing that the character is unstable.
Over the shoulder shot shows a character having a conversation from over one person’s shoulder.
Low angle shows the camera from below the character, making them look powerful.

The assignment was to take pictures using various camera shot types and angles then arrange them titled in a collage. I used stuffed animals as subjects. I planned by setting up the subject and the background, which wasn't too hard. I chose a pretty basic background just using the walls of a room in my house. I chose to portray the straightforward definition for most of the shots without adding any extra detail so the subject was the main focus. I didn't really plan the shots because I knew I was just going to do the basic camera position. The process was simple. I didn't have a lot of trouble except the phone camera didn't achieve the correct effect sometimes, but I tried my best. I enjoyed doing the point-of-view shot the most because I think it looks the most accurate.
