Camera Angle's And Shots In Our Opening Scene:

In our opening scene we wanted to include as many different camera angles and movements to help achieve a high grade. By using different camera angles and cross cuts were hoping to get a really effective opening scene that viewers will enjoy.

Long Shot
A shot which shows the setting/location and body language of the characters. We used this to show both locations in our opening scene. The woods and coffee shop.

Two Shot
A shot with two people in the scene. Used when our characters were having a conversation about the assault.

Canted Angle
A shot where the camera is slanted at an angle to portray unease, madness and frantic action. Used when we filmed Nadiye(Tara) walking into the woods. It shows that she is walking into a mysterious suspicious location.

Medium Shot
A shot which shows more detail within a scene but also a characters body language. Used when our antagonist assaults the protagonist. It shows her body language as suspicious and evil.

Close Up
A shot which fills up the frame of either an object or certain character. It shows the characters emotions. Used when Mae(Ellie) is on the phone as you can see she is upset and when Nadiye(Tara) is being suffocated as it fills the frame and you can also see horror and fright.

Extreme Close Up
A shot which shows finer detail and completely fills the frame tightly of the characters face. Used when showing Nadiye(Tara's) hand movement. The audience is able to see the finer detail.

Over The Shoulder Shot
A shot which is filmed looking over someones shoulder. Its shows different perspectives and point of view. Used when Chloe(Rosemary) and Katy(Bella) are in conversation.

Shot Reverse Shot
A scene which is recorded twice showing a conversation from two different parts in the scene. Shows a character looking at another character then the other way around. Used when Chloe(Rosemary) and Katy(Bella) are in conversation. Looks more effective overall.

Match On Action
Editing technique for continuity in which the shot cuts from one to another to show the actions of the character/object. Used when Mae(Ellie) picks up her phone to call Tara.

 Pan
A camera movement which helps show the setting/location. The camera will either pan up or down, or left to right. We used at the beginning of our opening scene to show the audience where it is set.
