My camera angles

Dutch Tilt

This photo was taken in a 17th century house corridor. I used the dutch tilt angle to add to and capture the feeling of uneasiness that the staircase gave me. The angle of which it was taken at, removes the top of the staircase, leaving the interpretation up to the viewers imagination. It can be seen from the perspective of the person behind the camera or possibly what could be lurking around the corner.

Low Angle shot

Once again using the effect of a staircase, but this time using a low angle shot. I have also decided to add lighting to draw focus to the subject at the top. The lighting highlights her face and the black clothing blends into the picture on the wall. I took this from the 2nd step, which I feel adds confusion to the shot. If I had taken this as a wide shot, it wouldn't have the same effect as the subject would be closer up and with less mystery than what the low angle adds.

Wide Shot

The subject of this photo is an animal not a person so the height and size differs. I chose to use a wide shot for this as it directs focus to the subject whilst also capturing its surroundings. My camera has blurred the far background whilst keeping the left side water in focus due to the subject being closer.

Establishing shot

The establishing shot works best with this landscape setting, it is a still frame that sets the scene taking place with no other subject or distraction. It also captures the surroundings in front of house, ie the detailed gates and the gravel driveway.
