SHOTS

In film, a shot is a continuous strip of motion picture film, created of a series of frames, that runs for an uninterrupted period of time. Shots are generally filmed with a single camera and can be of any duration. A shot in production, defined by the beginning and end of a capturing process, is equivalent to a clip in editing, defined as the continuous footage between two edits. Frames, shots, clips, scenes, and sequences form a hierarchy of units fundamental to many tasks in the creation of moving-image works.



WIDE SHOT In photography, film and video, a wide shot typically shows the entire object or human figure and is usually intended to place it in some relation to its surroundings. Long-shot ranges usually correspond to approximately what would be the distance between the front row of the audience and the stage in live theatre.


MEDIUM SHOT
In film,a medium shot is a camera shot from a medium distance. Medium shots are relatively good in showing facial expressions but work well to show body language.Depending where the characters are placed in the shot, a medium shot is used to represent importance and power.





CLOSE-UP
In film, and still photography and the comic strip medium a close-up tightly frames a person or an object.Close-ups display the most detail, but they do not include the broader scene. Moving in to a close-up or away from a close-up is a common type of zooming.



EXTREME CLOSE-UP The shot is so tight that only a fraction of the focus of attention, such as someone's eyes, can be seen.




TWO SHOT
A Two shot is a type of shot employed in the film industry in which the frame encompasses a view of two people





THREE SHOT
three shot has three people in the composition of the frame. In these shots the characters are given more importance; this type of image can also be seen in print advertising.

  1. shots and angles are the basic part of a film, because the camara in that way show us the perspective of that person, most of the time this angles and this different types of shots makes a horror movie, or a comic movie, because if we see a over the sholder shot maybe in a terror film is because somebody is going to kill another one or something like that. We can see how wide shot is important in movies, because it shows you the scenario where the movies is taking place.
