Different Shots

         While I was doing this video sequence, I was supposed to learn about different tipes of shots. So now I want to tell you more about those shots: 

• Pan
• Tilt 
• Low angle
• High angle
• Following shot 
• Zoom
• Dolly 
• Extreme and medium close-up
• Over the shoulder shot
• Reaction and long shot.

Pan

First shot was "Pan". This shot represents the movement of the camera, in which it turns to right or left on a horizontal axis.

Tilt

Second shot was "Tilt". This shot represents the movement of the camera, by which the camera moves up or down while its support remains fixed.

Low Angle

The next shot was "Low Angle". This is when the camera points upwards, usually making the subject or setting seem grand or threatening.

Hight Angle

The fourth shot was a Hight Angle Shot. This shot is making by putting the camera in the position when it looks down, what makes the subject look vulnerable or insignificant.

Following Shot
After High Angle Shot we were learning what is the Following Shot. The following shot combines movement like panning, tracking, tilting or craning, with the specific function of directing our attention to character or object as he/she/it moves inside the frame.

Zoom shot

After the Following Shot we were doing Zoom shot. Zoom is the effect of rapid movement either towards or away from subject being photographed. The video below represents good examples of a pan shot, a tilt shot and a zoom shot.

Dolly
A dolly is a cart which travels along tracks. The camera is mounted on the dolly and records the shot as it moves. Dolly shots have a number of applications and can provide very dramatic footage.

Unfortunately, we failed it because we couldn't film it properly. Dolly shot is the technique in which the camera moves closer or further from the subject while simultaneously adjusting the zoom angle to keep the subject the same size in frame. Below is shown the example of Dolly shot.

Extreme and medium close-up

• Medium close up

Medium Close Up shot is when the object is shown from chest to head. This is a combination of a MS & CU. It is mostly used when a little more intimacy than the MS is required, but not quite so much intimacy of the CU.

• Extreme close up

This is from just above the eyebrows to just below the mouth, or even closer. 

Over the shoulder shot

Over the shoulder shot  is a shot of someone or something taken from the perspective or camera angle from the shoulder of another person. The back of the shoulder and head of this person is used to frame the image of whatever (or whomever) the camera is pointing toward.

Reaction and long shot.

• Reaction shot

Reaction shot is a term used in motion picture film production, cinematography and video production referring to a basic unit of film grammar. It is a shot which cuts away from the main scene in order to show the reaction of a character to it.

• Long shot 

In photography, filmmaking and video production, a long shot (sometimes referred to as a full shot or a wide shot) typically shows the entire object or human figure and is usually intended to place it in some relation to its surroundings.

This is our example of every shot I have mentioned above.
