9 Camera Angles which I think are useful and effective.


Aerial shot - An exterior shot filmed from the air.

Arc shot - Where the subject is circled by the camera.

Close up - A shot that keeps only the full face in the frame.

Medium shot - This shot is the most common in films it shows less then a long shot but more then a close up

Long shot -  A shot that depicts an entire character or an object from head to toe.

Dolly zoom - A shot that sees the camera track forward towards the subject.

Pan - The camera moves constantly right to left or left to right.

The Sequence shot - A long shot that covers a scene in one continuous sweep without editing.

Top shot - A shot looking directly down on a scene rather then an angle.
