  1. Cinematography: Framing

  2. Angle, Level, Height and Distance of Framing • Infinite number of Angles • 3 Typical: High, Low, Straight On Straight On Low Angle High Angle

  3. Level and Height • Camera Parallel to Horizon, but can tilt • Can be stationed at a certain height according to settings/figures • No universal cut off to say what is what when it comes to any of these categories

  4. Distances: Close Ups Close Up Extreme Close Up

  5. Distances: Medium Shots Medium Close Up Medium Long Shot Medium Shot
