Camera Shot Types

The linked video is an older demo for camera shot types. The information is still relevant.

Close up

The camera is placed 'close' and zoomed in on the subject being shot
Used to draw more attention to the main subject
How tightly composed on the subject can determine the level of the viewer response

Medium Shot

Labeled as a medium shot because of the distance from the subject
Medium shots are the average distance between a Close Up shot and a Full shot
Medium shots are usually used for dialogue between two subjects. Medium shots are considered to be how most people view others during conversation
