You can put high and low angle shots together to show that one person (filmed from a low angle) is more powerful than another person (filmed from a high angle). High angle shots from above usually make people or things look weaker and less powerful.
These shots are also good for filming people who are looking down at things, so you’re filming their face rather than the top of their head. Low angle shots, where the camera points upwards from below, make people (and things) look bigger, more courageous and more important. I’ve described them on the 180 degree rule and Putting it together pages. If they are moving, try shooting from in front and then from behind then editing the shots together.īut to make sure that shots from different camera positions work together, you need to follow a few ‘rules’. You should also shoot from different positions around the subject, not just from directly in front or from the side. A remote control is also useful to start and stop shooting when the camera is out of reach. If your camera has a swivelling screen you can use that to monitor the shot while the camera is in unusual positions. Crouch down below the subject, hold the camera above your head, climb stairs or use a tall tripod or ladder. Instead of shooting everything from eye level, with the camera horizontal, try shooting with it pointing up or down. Use different camera angles and positions, as well as using different shot sizes.
