Final Assignment

Comparing The Shot

Full shot / Wide shot Take whole part of things or people from top to bottom inside the scene

Medium Long shot (MLS) Take a shoot from the knee up of the

actor

Medium shot (MS) Take a shoot from the belly of the actor

Medium Close up (MCU) Take a shoot from the chest of the actor Always used in Reverse angle

Close up (CU) Take a shoot from the shoulder of the

actor More closer with audience

Extreme Close up (ECU) Take a shoot from over eyebrows to

below lip of the actor More closer with audience To show out the feeling or emotional of

actors directly

Big Close up (BCU) Take a specific shoot on the face like

eyes and mouth of actor Show more detail to bring audience into

the storytelling

Profile Shot Catch side view of actor Represent the expression of actor A shooting angle represent a natural

look of actor

Symmetry It look like a reflection inside the scene

whether horizontal or vertical Have a nice look

Before Director say Camera rolling 1,2,3 ,there is a method acting for actors to play the number for the purpose of letting actors know what is the timing suit for them to enter frame

So that they can reach the same timing to shoot the scene after Director say ACTION 1,2,3

Left / Right camera = framing off centre to the left / right

Empty Frame Enter Frame In Frame

Left Camera Center Framing Right Camera

When composing the shots ,remember to give enough head room and look space so that to show a nice look because the subject and scenery have a right position inside the scene

Use high angle and low angle to show different types of visual effect and get different types of feeling

We always use EYE LEVEL compose a scene so that audiences able to get the resonance what the actors trying to bring out

Furthermore, EYE LEVEL is more comfortable in view for audiences to watch a video

High angle Eye Level Low angle

Composition

Out Focus – In Focus Focus the part that actor is focusing first Then, focus the actor Guide audiences to follow the visual effect so that can touch the

feeling of audience

Without Foreground – With Foreground A scene with foreground or without foreground both also look nice But sometime the scene with foreground will bring out depth feeling

Framing The Shot

Insert Shot Frame the actor is doing something such as holding a things which is relevant with the storytelling. To bring out the feeling more closer with audience so that the audience also can get the same

feeling with the character in the story. Sometime insert shot is just connect the scene ,for instance an hour hand of clock is moving ,a drop

of rain drop on a surface of leaf to create a nice visual effect.
