HG- Analysis of camera techniques

This shot is very unique, and almost spooky. This is because all the audience can see is a single hand above the television. This shot is evidence of a medium close-up, this is because  the focal point is the hand, and the audience can identify the general look of the hand.

This shot is evidence of a high angle shot, as well as this, it is also used as a point-of-view shot of the male. It is a very unusual shot, and is also a mid-shot, as some of the objects in the room are obtrusive. As well as this, the shot is focussing very much on the man’s arm, and the other objects in the background are out of focus.

 This shot is taken from a side angle, it is also a long-shot as the male’s whole body is apparent. This shot is very effective as the audience are able to see the man, and what he is doing due to the distance and angle.

This is a bird’s eye view shot. I like this shot because of the camera movement, as it zooms in on the distressed man, giving the audience further detail of his physical characteristics and his facial expression. In terms o9f the distance of the shot, is a mid-shot, as the audience are able to see his physical appearance.

This shot is evidence of the notion of looking, this is because the image is inside the television and is therefore a screen within a screen. Furthermore,  it is an effective shot as it is a point-of-view shot, and therefore the audience can see exactly what the man is seeing. In terms of distance, this shot is a mid-shot, as the audience are able to see the full image of the two male singers on the screen.

This shot is evidence of a medium long-shot, this is because the audience are able to see everything in the scene. This enables the viewer to see the whole of the room, and is therefore able to build up an understanding of the male because of the iconography. In terms of movement, it zooms out from a mid-shot to a medium long-shot.
