                                  CAMERA SHOT

1. Extreme Long Shot-An extreme long shot contains a large amount of landscape. This is also
                                      known as an establishing shot.
 2. Long Shot- A long shot contains landscape but gives the viewer a more specific idea of setting. A long
                        shot may show the viewers the building where the action will take place.
 3. Full Shot-   A full shot contains a complete view of the characters.
 4. Mid Shot-  A mid shot contains the characters or a character from the waist up. From this shot, viewers
                       can see the character's faces more clearly as well as their interaction with other characters.
                       This is also known as a social shot.
 5. Close-up -  A close-up contains just one character's face. This is also know as a personal shot.
 6. Extreme close-up(ECU) - The ECU gets right in and shows extreme details. For people, the ECU is
                                               used to convey emotion.
