Shot Types are the different kinds of shots that can be used in
film, photography, and other media.
They consist of different angles, sizes, and
positions, and are useful for portraying a
variety of different emotions, or just making
the image clearer.
When selecting an appropriate shot type, it is important to think
about what you want the media to capture, like someone’s
emotions, and what you want to show to the viewer.
The Establishing Shot is a useful shot-type.
It shows the whole scenery, and is useful to show where
something takes place.
They can give the viewer a
quick idea of what the
place is like, or just to
show where it is.
Wide- Shots are similar to an Establishing shot.
However, they focus more on a specific point.
As you can see, this Wide Shot focuses on the plants in the
of the barren desert.
