Camera Angles

The Angle that the Camera is placed during a cut is very important. Professional Camera men will position the camera angles not only in different spots to keep the film running in flow. But also to capture parts of the scene that they want YOU the audience to see.
Throughout are process of filming we tried to take this into account for each situation. We tried to create the best camera angle possible at each point to display are point.

Medium Shot.

This is A medium Camera Angle, this is effective in this scene as it enables the audience to visualise not only the protagonist actor, but also the artist following him. This shot is more effective then for example a long angle because you can see that the artist is singing in the background.

Close-Up Shot.

This Close-Up is very affective. Close-Ups can show emotion through an individual body part. This Close-Up is of the eye, this is effective and essential for are music video as it shows that "tears wont fall from my eyes," and the emotion comes straight through from the tear.

Over The Shoulder Shot


This over the shoulder shot was used to show that the protagonist is driving. This gives a 3rd person view and gives the suggestion of going back in time as the car moves in reverse.

High Angle Shot.

This is a High Angle Shot, this is effective to show the pieces of plates smash and spread out of the screen, it also shows the plate go back in reverse to its normal unbroken plate. This really brings out the view of going back in time.

Long Shot.
This is a long shot, we used this to show a good amount of the car at different angles as it moved.

Birds eye view shot.


The Birds eye view shot is often used to present a land scape. However we have used it here to look down on the artist, this gives the effect that he is looking up to the sky.
