RE: / Film Class #23 / Essential Camera Shots All Filmmakers Must Know /

in #films7 years ago

Excellent info @marinauzelac. :) I know I am preaching to the choir here, but having a good grasp of camera angles is essential for newcomer film makers. It is a free tool that can make your images look interesting and unique. Even with the most inexpensive of camera you can create an exciting image that can help tell your story. (see Blair Witch Project) Also, many of the best film makers have their own unique camera angle which they go to and defines them as artists. You mention some in your post.

I recently shot a conversation between an adult and a child for a client. I carefully used camera angles to first place the adult in the place of athority then as the conversation progressed my angles provided the opposite. By the end the viewer was looking up at the child and down at the adult. Worked pretty good :)
Thanks for the great post.
