Camera work and Meaning

Casualty extract
Camera techniques



-Close up
-Long shot

-Tracking
-Medium shot

-Selective focus
-Handheld

-High angle
-Tilt
-Low angle
-Two shot



In the extract there was an example of a two shot when they were in the cafe. This shows they were engaged in conversation just between the two of them.

 
In the extract there was many close up shots, but one in particular was in the back of an ambulance when the woman is talking to the man who is bleeding, she seems angry and alert and this shows urgency.

 
When the man was laying on the floor after  he collapsed, there was an example of a high angle shot. This type of shot was used to show that the character is vulnerable, and also makes the accident seem even more dramatic.
