Research of Shot Types

Wide shot:

The subject takes up the full frame. This helps to see body posture which is a leading form of communication. It is also known as a long shot or a full shot. 

Close Up:

A specific part of the subject takes up the frame. This helps to see facial expressions. 

Extreme close up:

It gets even closer and shows extreme detail. This works well in particularly tense scenes when you can see a persons eyes darting or a bead of sweat. 

Two Shot:

A shot of two people similarly framed. It is good for getting two subjects reaction to an event. 

Over the shoulder shot:

Looking over the shoulder at the subject. It is effective in the portrayal of conversation.

Point of View shot:It is shot from the subjects perspective. This is used to get a viewers reaction to the subjects situation. 

In addition to this, there are different shot angles. I made this to show them.
