Camera Movement
• To achieve smooth movement you will need to pan and tilt so that the frame moves evenly, without any jerky or sudden movements.

Different Variation of Shot Sizes• Wide Shot/Extreme Long Shot - audience sees the setting -
establishing shot. figures are very small.• Long Shot - figures seen from head to foot - identify more detail
about the person/character.• Mid Shot - frame from their waste to their head - easily recognise
details of the character.• Medium Shot - similar to mid shot - from their chest to their head.• Close Up - frame contains persons head and shoulders - thoughts
and feelings of character are shown.• Big Close Up - shows just the face - signifying emotions or focusing
on expressions.• Extreme Close Up - extremely close - just below the mouth, just
above the eyebrow - make a person feel powerful or threatened.

Different Variation of Camera Angles
• Low Angle - below the subject pointing upwards - effect of overpowering, important or threatening.
• High Angle - above the subject pointing down - effect of vulnerable, insignificant or threatened.
• POV - shows what character is looking at from their Point Of View.
• Bird's Eye View - camera looking vertically straight down at the subject.
• Worm Eye View - view of an object from below, as though the observer were a worm. A worm's eye view is used commonly for third perspective.

Headroom:• Too much Headroom
Headroom is the amount of space between the top of the subjects head in comparison to the frame
• Not enough Headroom
• Correct Headroom

Leadroom: Leadroom is the space in front, and in the direction, of stationary or moving bodies or objects.
• Poor Leadroom
• Good Leadroom

• Sufficient Noseroom

Anticipatory Framing
• We use panning to follow a person walking, to do this correctly you need to become proficient at anticipatory framing.
• To achieve this you need to be able to anticipate the direction of your subject’s movement and move the frame fluidly to constantly ensure a sufficient amount of headroom and Leadroom.
