Shot Composition activity

Today we set out to do a shot composition activity in order to try out the different shot and angle types with a camera and tripod. These shots were to include, a protagonist (me), an antagonist and a basic construction of narrative.

Establishing shot (Rule of Thirds).

The results were as follows:

Extreme Close up (Rule of Thirds)

Long shot (Backgrounds)

This shot gives the audience a better look at the overall scene by including both the characters and a lot of background.

Long shot (Leading Lines)

Close Up

Close up (same subject)

Over the Shoulder (same subject)

Point of View (same subject)

Low angle

This shot is primarily used on the antagonist in a shot its purpose is to make something, or someone appear to be big and intimidating.
