Camerawork

Camerawork is my favourite aspect of filmmaking. There are many shots I have had a chance to use during the production of my film that give different effects to everything. Examples of shots I have used are:

- Close up

- Mid-shot

- Extreme wide shot

- Medium close-up

- Extreme close up

- Point of View shot

- Weather shot

Extreme close up

Mid-shot

Long Shot

Very long shot/Weather shot

Extreme long shot

Medium close-up

Extreme close-up

Point of View shot

Close up

All of these examples of camera shots that I have used in my film have been vital to the quality of it. As it is avant-garde I have paid a lot of attention to detail and the effect of each shot for the audience to enjoy it; for example, I have used extreme close ups on the eye of my protagonist for a direct address to the audience and detail, which catches the audience's attention. I have used weather shots to show the passage of time as it is based around ordinary life. Point of view shots enable the audience the experience the film as if it were them in it; this is really good for my film idea as it is made for the audience to be able to relate to it.

Looking at how my camerawork affects the film has helped me to direct it a lot better as I know what the audience will want to see.
