Today i am going to talk about the different camera shots.
-Close-up shot.
 Is a photograph taken at close range or with a long focal-length lens, on a relatively large scale. Shows evey little background, and concentrates on either a face, or a specific detail of mise en scene. Everything else is just a blur in the background. This shot magnifies the object and shows the importance of things, be it words written on paper, or the expression on someones face.
- Medium shot.
Is a camera angle shot from a medium distance.It give a particular view of the background and also show thw subjects facial expressions in the context of their body language. Medium shots are also used when the subject in the shot is delivering information, such as news presenters. It is the most common shot in movies.
-Extreme close up shot.
An extreme version of the close up, generally magnifying beyond what the human eye would experience in reality. An extreme close up of a face, for instance, would show only the mouth or eyes, with no background detail whatsoever. This is a very artificial shot, and can be used for dramatic effect.
-Over the shoulder shot.
Shows a figure from the kness/waist up and is normally used for dialogue scenes, or to show some detail of action. Background detail is minimal. This type of shot is very common when two characters are having a discussion and will usually follow an establishing shot which helps the audience place the characters in their setting.


-Wide shot.
A video or a film recording made with the camera positioned to observe the most action in the performance. In this wide shot we can see a man in a horse race circuit and we can see also the countryside that is at the end of the circuit. This is the objetive of this shot. To percept not only the image, also the where is take the situation.
-Aerial shot.
A shot taken from a rat, helicopter or a person on top of a building. Not necessarily a moving shot. For example, if a scene takes place on a tall building, you may want to have an aerial shot of the floor the action takes place on.
-Master shot.
Is a film recording of an entire dramatized scene, from start to finish, from an angle that keeps all the players in view. In this image we can perfectly see an example of master shot where we can see some persons in the same image in a common room.


-Long shot.
Is an image showing a peron from head to toe. Typically shows the entire object or human figure and is usually intended to place it in some relation to its surroundings.
