Shot List... (Shots I Am Going To Use)

Extra Long Shot

Also known as the Establish shot, this gives the viewer some perspective as to where the subject is. This is very important if the subject is moving to new locations or times. It lets the viewer know where the video is taking place

I will use this shot when the tree first comes into the video, aswell as when the man walks to and away from the tree, nearing the end of the song.

Medium Long Shot

This is where the person is cut the person off at the knees. With this shot, you can still see expression on the persons face, while getting more information from what is going on around the person. I will use this shot aswell as using a tilt shot including theman, looking up at the broken branches of the tree. Close Up The close up shot is used to reveal detail. If you are shooting just the head and shoulders of a subject this is a close up. I will be using this shot when having a panshot of the driver driving along the country road, aswell as when the viewing the man looking at the photo in his wallet. Extreme Closeup The extreme close up is used to reveal very small details in the scene. It is also used to show some detail that the detective picks up on or to show some small clue such as emotion. I'll use this shot, to show theemotion being shown on the mans face. eg. tears. Point Of View Shot This shot shows a view from the subject's perspective. It is usually edited in such a way that it is obvious whose POV it is I'll use this shot from the mans perspective Tilt Shot A tilt is a vertical camera movement in which the camera points up or down from a stationary location. For example, if you mount a camera on your shoulder and nod it up and down, you are tilting the camera. I'll use this shot at the same time as using a point of view shot as to show the man looking up and down at the broken braches of the tree. Zoom Shot Zooming means altering the focal length of the lens to give the illusion of moving closer to or further away from the action. I will use this shot when the man walks away from the tree nearing the end of the video. Pan Shot A pan is a horizontal camera movement in which the camera moves left and right about a central axis I will use this shot when turning to face the driver in the car. Low Angle Shot This shows the subject from below, giving them the impression of being more powerful or dominant
