Camera Shot Types
The linked video is an older demo for camera shot types. The information is still relevant.
Close up (CU)
- 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 (MS)
- 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
Medium Long (MLS)
- Medium Long shots, sometimes called an American shot, refers to the distance of the camera from the subject
- Medium Long shots are the average distance between a medium and a Wide shot
- The subject encompasses the frame from the knees up
