  2. Canted Angles • - Also known as Oblique angles or “Going Dutch” • - Camera is turned slightly at an angle to express Tension, uneasiness, or a desperate action. • - Movie used the most often is Batman • Used it on all the villains to show they were "Crooked“ • - Used in many movies, but it appears most often in Horror, War, and Science Fiction movies • http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Spider-Man/60004481?trkid=189530&strkid=243797640_0_0

  3. Establishing Shot • A shot taken outside of an area, then taken inside • Gives the audience a feel for where the scene is taking place. • http://www.netflix.com/Movie/National_Treasure/70011206?trkid=189530&strkid=1565875541_0_0

  4. High Angle Shot • A downward look that gives more attention to the surroundings or the setting. • If objects or people are present in the shot it symbolizes non-importance or “withering authority”

  5. Long Shot • Show the character or object from a distance • This is done to show in full scale the object or character and any movements or action that is occurring in the scene • http://www.netflix.com/Movie/300/70056440?trkid=189530&strkid=851129019_0_0

  6. Authoritative Definitions • Low Angle- A low angle camera shot is where the camera is looking up at a character or object. This angle is used to inspire fear, awe, or to create a self importance for what ever is in the shot. • Straight Angle- A straight angle camera shot is where the camera is looking at eye level with the character or object.
