We will cover Storyboarding Camera angles

Storyboarding A storyboard is an effective planning tool for any visual production, whether your production is a series of photographs, a short- or feature-length movie, or a website. It is a series of boxes, each of which represent a still frame that the viewer would see. They should be put in order and numbered accordingly.

Example

Camera Angles Bird's-eye view Bird's-eye view--the shot is photographed directly from above. This type of shot can be disorienting, and the people photographed seem insignificant.

High angle High angle--this angle reduces the size of the objects photographed. A person photographed from this angle seems harmless and insignificant, but to a lesser extent than with the bird's- eye view. This position makes characters look weak, submissive, or frightened.

Eye-level shot Eye-level shot--the clearest view of an object, but rarely intrinsically dramatic, because it tends to be the norm. They are ideal for romantic comedies and news casting

Low angle Low angle--this angle increases high and a sense of verticality, heightening the importance of the object photographed. A person shot from this angle is given a sense of power and respect, making characters look dominant, aggressive.

Oblique angle Oblique angle--for this angle, the camera is tilted laterally, or leaning sideways, transforming the horizon into a slope, giving the image a slanted appearance. Oblique angles suggest tension, transition, an impending movement, and a more dynamic composition.. They are also called canted or Dutch Tilt angles.
