  1. The Close Up The aim is togive a greater impact to the subject. Here the Joker looks scary and menacing. Note the light on his face to make it stand out. His eyes are above centre and a focal point.

  2. The High Camera Angle A high camera Angle makes the subject look small, weak or insignificant. Many movies use this technique to show a victim.

  3. The Low Camera Angle The low camera angle has many uses. It can make a hero seem even more super or an evil baddie more dangerous. Here we see a tennis player about to take his shot. He seems tall and large, we assume therefore he is powerful.

  4. Point of View Shot This is a shot as if looking from the person riding the bike. Some film scenes use POV to enhance the scariness of some scenes.

  5. Reaction Shot This shot is designed to show emotion. This is so you can ‘feel’ for the character. Scary movies use this a great deal but it can also be used to show happiness.

  6. Long Shots This shot is made to show you the location of the scene. Films which have big budgets do this to show off or make a scene feel exotic or rich.

  7. Tracking Shots Tracking shots are when the camera follows the subject. Many car chases use tracking shots to follow the vehicles. The Blair witch project was all tracking and POV shots.

  8. Objective Shot An objective shot is used to just simply show what is going on. It is ideal where the director wants you to just sit there and watch the action unfold.
