Class 2 Shot Size and Framing
What is shot size? • Very simply it’s how close you are to your subject • Subjects can be anything you are focusing on, but usually people
Uses for extreme long shot • To show isolation or loneliness • To show beauty of grandeur of landscape • To build tension • To show size of armies
Wide shot uses • Can be the same uses as extreme wide, but the focus is more on the subject. • Can be used to make the subject seem small or show them as in charge and confident within the landscape
Uses of Close-Up • Show emotion or reaction • Get up close and personal with a character • Highlight the importance of an object or body part
