Using Camera Shots

Today I took photos using six different camera shots from the syllabus.

1) Close-up shot

This close-up shot emphasizes the emotions of the subject.

2) Over-the-shoulder shot

This shot allows the audience to see the subject in the middle of a conversation.

3) Long shot

This long shot shows the subject from head to know and allows the audience to see her surroundings.

4) Point Of View

POV allows the audience to see from the eyes of the subject.

5) Mid-shot

Mid-shot allows us to see the surroundings and emotions of the subject.

6) Establishing shot

This shot gets to see the subject's environment and her actions.

Comments

Magazines require certain conventions that they all need to follow. I will mention and explain them below. •Nameplate/masthead- The font that makes the magazine recognizable. It is specifically designed to attract an audience. •Taglines- Taglines are used to show what the magazine is about. •Coverlines- Coverlines mention the topics included. •Central image- The central Image draws an audience before they can even read the magazine. •Cover model- Cover models are usually celebrities that have a strong connection to the magazine's genre. •Color scheme- The color scheme is used to target a demographic. •Barcodes- Barcodes are used to Identify your magazine.

Using Camera Angles

Today, I took photos using the three camera angles from the syllabus. These consist of a high angle, low angle, and canted angle. 1) High angle This high angle conveys the idea that the subject has less power than I do. 2) Low angle This low angle conveys the idea that the subject is powerful or holds more power than I do. 3) Canted angle This canted angle suggests that the subject is disoriented.
