Camera Shot Types

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

[Camera Shot Types]


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
