Camera Shots

When filming camera crews use a wide range of different shots to create different effects. In class we watched the "Monarch of the Glen" clip again an pointed out and named the different shots that were used and what effect the had.
Here are all the shots that we learned in lesson an the shots used in the clip:
  • Two Shot (Two people in one frame)
  • Over the Shoulder Shot
  • High Angle Shot
  • Low Angle Shot (Makes a character seem big)
  • PAN (Pivot left & right with the camera)
  • Tut (Pivot up & down)
  • Tracking & Reverse Tracking 
  • Zoom
  • Belly Shot
A Dolly Shot is used so the audience can really apperciate what the workers are doing and to emphasise the fact that the work they are doing is usually revoloves around the older generation. This is a represantion of age.

There is a Over the Shoulder Shot and a Medium Long Shot, she is shown to be the main person in this shot also it is used in establishing the location and it establishes her costume which shows us as the audience that she is young in age.

Close Up shot is used when she gets in the car ,this shot shows the confusion in her face and also it shows that she dosent know how to drive the car.This creates another represantion of age as you can tell she is still a child.

Wide Shot when the cars crash is used to give a sense of idea to where and what the location is.

Panning from person to person helps to establish the height difereance between the characters. Tilt shot is usually used to reveal something, in the clip there is a close up shot of the note she leaves behind.

In the clip the camera does a slow zoom to go closer into the photograph which emphasises her emotions. The emphasis of her emotions builds up the representation of age.

The tilt the camera used in the clip makes it obvious that she left by jumping out the window.

Showing from his eye level, the tall man it shows that the scene is being seen from his perspective. Last shot is his face close up to show his guilt.
