Camera-types
- shot types - all belong to 1/2 groups: a type of Close up or a Wide Shot.
- Close ups portray: emotions and facial expressions. This can be the heroic protagonist who could convey stereotypes through having a brave expression which connotes them being in control soo that the audience can apply an ideal self and empathize with the character. This can be in juxtaposition with the challenging of stereotypes in showing fear. The same applying for the antagonist, a fearful expression conveyed in a close up making the audience fear for them; empathizing with the villain like they did with the hero. This makes them question the roles in the film which creates social interaction. Close ups show something that is important (in detail).
- Wide shots portray vast crowded scenes: examples of these being establishing shots or crowded shots. Wide shots also convey relationships between characters due to the presence of multiple characters in one shot. Setting/location is vitally reliant on this shot type as it establishes where the scene or entire film will be taking place.
Two techniques happening at the same time such as a panning and two-shot, it would be called a panning two-shot (extra marks).
