Week 10 Tutorial

XLS/ELS = Extreme Long Shot = Object very far away, only takes up 1/10th of the horizontal focus
VLS = Very Long Shot = Object Half way closer to camera as ELS, takes up 1/5th of the horizontal focus
LS = Long Shot/ Wide = Full body shot of the object
MLS = Medium Long Shot = Half body shot but object still distant
MS = Meduim Shot = Hip to head of the object
MCU = Medium Close Up = Below shoulders to just above head of object
CU = Close Up = Above shoulders of object only visible - head shot
BCU = Big Close Up = Face shot of the object only visible
ECU/XCU = Extreme Close Up = Eyes width only visible

Headroom = Ample space around head but space for others
Talking Room = an above shoulder shot with enough room next to the subject for a mirrored object
High Angle shot = camera positioned diagonally above object
Low Angle Shot = camera positioned diagonally below object

We put together a 15 second film incorporating the different types of shots and frames and looked at all the different angles  to create different scenarios.
