Camera Shots, angles and movement.

What is a shot? A shot is a series of frames, that runs for an uninterrupted period of time. Film shots are an essential aspect of a movie where angles, transitions and cuts are used to further express emotion, ideas and movement. In production, a shot is the moment that the camera starts rolling until the moment it stops. In film editing, a shot is the continuous footage or sequence between two edits or cuts.

Extreme Long Shot A wider frame value in which subjects in the frame are small; a building, cityscape.
5
Long Shot A shot which displays a full figure from top to tip showing the entire object or human figure.

33
High Angle shot A high angle shot is usually when the camera angle is located above the eyeline. Connotes inferiority.
34
Low Angle shot A low-angle shot, is a shot from a camera positioned low on the vertical axis, anywhere below the eyeline, looking up. Connotes superiority.
35
Eye-level camera angle
It is a shot when the camera is positioned on the same level as that of the character in the film.
