Camera Angles - Instructional Video

Instructional Video



As a group, we put together this instructional video to practically demonstrate the different camera angles. These include High Angle, Low Angle, Eye Level, Bird's Eye view, Worm's Eye view and Canted Angle shots. We also attempted to demonstrate a Crane Shot and a Trombone Effect. We showed all of these in this instructional video. Each of us had our turn at both starring in the video and using the camera to film so that we were able to get some practice at filming these various shots. The video was meant to show, not just how each of these angles/shots were filmed, but the effect they had. The High Angle, for example, creates the illusion that the actor being filmed looks much taller from this  angle. Similarly, the Low Angle creates the illusion of an actor looking much smaller from this angle.
