Camera techinques
Camera Shots
Close-Up
Close Up (CU) In the closeup shot, a certain feature or part of the subject takes up most of the frame. A close up of a person usually means a close up of their face(unless specified otherwise). Close-ups are obviously useful for showing detail and can also be used as a cut-in.
Medium Close-Up
A close-up or closeup in filmmaking, television production, still photography, and the comic stripmedium type of shot that tightly frames a person or object. Close-ups are one of the standard shots used regularly with medium and long shots (cinematic techniques).
Medium Shot
A medium shot is general. Medium shots are used for dialogue sequences and they allow their viewer to pick up on the characters movement and gestures.
Midshot
Medium shots are favored in sequences where dialogues or a small group of people acting, as they give the viewer a partial view of the background and also show the subjects’ facial expressions in the context of their body language. The medium shot shows equality between subjects and background. The dividing line between what constitutes a long shot and medium shot is not define, nor is the line between medium shot and close-up.
Long (wide) Shot
A long shot (sometimes referred to as a full shot or, and to remove ambiguity, wide shot) typically shows the entire object or human figure and is usually intended to place it in some relation to its surroundings.
Long shot
A long shot (sometimes referred to as a full shot or, and to remove ambiguity, wide shot) typically shows the entire object or human figure and is usually intended to place it in some relation to its surroundings. Also known as extreme wide shot. It covers a wide area, shows the whole figure of your subject as well as his surroundings and it provides context for your scene.
Camera angles
Low Angle
Taking a photograph from a low angle, also know as a ‘worm’s-eye view’, makes subjects appear larger than normal. The lens sees the scene from a point of humility while the subject towers over the world. A photograph taken from a low angle to help establish dominance or power.
Eye Level
It’s a shot that has little to no physical effect on the viewer. This shot is when the camera is level or looking straight on with the subject.
High Angle
Looking at the exact opposite situation, the high angle can be used to make a subject appear small or vulnerable. Commonly known as the ‘bird’s-eye view’, shots like these may be used to signal that a subject is in danger or has lost dominance in their environment. Add a dutch angle and something bad is almost certainly about to happen.
Over the shoulder
An over the shoulder shot can be used to show a relationship between another persona and our subject. We take a position next to the main subject getting close-up in their space and viewing the world as if we were standing with them. We may connect our model with a physical item or another individual within their space. The over the shoulder position places us within the world of the documented subject.
Overhead
The overhead shot camera angle view is a different and somewhat unnatural point of view for the audience. It puts the viewer in a position where he’s looking down on the action and things as is he were a bird, in a plane or just somewhere in the sky. It’s obviously not where they would be normally if looking at a scene. It can be used to show the broad positions and motions of several different characters and objects at once, enabling the viewer to see things and situations the characters themselves can’t see.
Pan
Panning is when you move your camera horizontally; either left to right or right to left, while its base is fixated on a certain point. You are not moving the position of camera itself, just the direction it faces. These types of shots are great for establishing a sense of location within your story
Tilt
Tilting is when you move the camera vertically, up to down or down to up, while its base is fixated to a certain point. Again, like panning, this move typically involves the use of a tripod where the camera is stationary but you move the angle it points to. These shots are popular when introducing a character, especially one of grandeur, in a movie.
Tracking
Trucking is the same as dollying, only you are moving the camera from left to right instead of in and out. It is best to do using a fluid motion track that will eliminate any jerking or friction.
Mise En Scene
Mise En Scene refers to everything that appears to before the camera and its arrangement, composition, sets, props, actors, costumes, and lightning. Mise En Scene also includes the composition, which consists of the positioning and movement of actors, as well as objects, in the shot
The use of these different angles can create point of view shots where the camera is placed in such a way as to represent or reproduce a character’s perspective on an environment or event. The camera effectively acts as the character’s eyes, and so point of view shots are often used to create empathy with a character.
What am I learning? I am learning to understand and give examples about camera technique.
How does this work show my learning? it shows because I have give an example and learn how camera works
What am I wondering as a result of this learning? I am wondering how much does a cameraman make an hour?

Wonder Work Part 4
- Part 4 starts with the quote "Now here is my secret. It is very simple. It is only with one's heart that one can see clearly. What is essential is invisible to the eye." What does it mean? It means that what on the outside is important but whats on the inside is even more important.
- What was Jack's initial reaction to Mr Tushman's request to show August around school? What made Jack decide to say 'yes' to Mr Tushman’s request? His mom said it if you do it will be a really kind and caring thing to do.
- Friendship can be difficult. How does Jack feel about him and August becoming Ex-friends? How does he feel when he finds out why? Guilty and sad, when he finds out he feels even more guilty and sorry.
- How was Jack provoked to punch Julian in the face? Explain why you think this was the right/wrong thing to do? Because he said
- How did reading Jack's point of view change your perception of his character?
- Predict how you think Auggie will react to the news that Jack punched Julian. What effect will it have own their friendship?
- Discuss the motivations for Julian's mum to photoshop August out of the class photo and it’s the message it sends to Julian.

- Mrs Alban also thought that August shouldn't have been allowed into Beecher Prep. Do you agree or disagree? Explain.
- How did Jack handle being frozen out by all the boys at Beecher Prep?

1.)This quote means what on the outside is important, but not as important as what's on the inside. In-depth if you want to find out what on the inside use your emotions.
2.)This quote means what on the outside is important, but not as important as what's on the inside. In-depth if you want to find out what on the inside use your emotions.
3.)I think Jack feels bad because August and Jack were actually really good friends and they had the same interests and would get along just fine. Personally, Jack tries to ignore the feelings for August and move on but I think he still wants to be friends with August.
4.)What provoked him to punch Julian was him saying stuff about his disease, that he has no friends and what Julian would do if he looked like August. I think Jack had enough and cared that much about August that he punched him in the face.
5.) I saw that he was really wanting to be friends with August and that even though they weren't talking Jack was still missing August as a friend. So yes it did change my perception.
6.)Hearing this August will be shocked and satisfied because I know August hates Julian. This is a good effect on their relationship because August will realize that Jack might not be as bad as he thinks and they probably will become friends again.
