  7. Shot Selection Use a succession of shots to tell your story • Three basic shot types • Wide Shot • Use to establish the scene • Medium Shot • Use to establish relationships & show location • Close-up • Use to show detail and to show emotion • Three shot “angles” • High, Neutral, Low • Each has impact on your viewer

Basic Audio Concepts(Audio is important) • Microphones are not capable of selective hearing, unlike humans • Mics operate by proximity • That is, the closer the better • Environmental factors play a major role in the quality of your recording • The mall food court is likely to be an “unfriendly” environment for recording
