Camera angles you need to know.

Today i will be taking you through the various camera angles to make you understand more about photography.
The camera angle marks the specific location at which the camera or video camera is placed to take a shot. A scene may be shot from several camera angles simultaneously depending on the scene required. Where the camera is placed in relation to the subject can affect the way the viewer perceives the subject. A Viewpoint is the apparent distance and angle from which the camera views and records the subject. this are some of the camera angles that are commonly used today.
The Bird's-Eye view

High Angle

Eye Level

Low Angle
@karungu elijah |
These increase height and give a sense of speeded motion. Low angles help give a sense of confusion to a viewer, of powerlessness within the action of a scene. The background of a low angle shot will tend to be just sky or ceiling, the lack of detail about the setting adding to the disorientation of the viewer. The added height of the object may make it inspire fear and insecurity in the viewer, who is psychologically dominated by the figure on the screen.
Oblique/Canted Angle
Sometimes the camera is tilted (ie is not placed horizontal to floor level), to suggest imbalance, transition and instability (very popular in horror movies). This technique is used to suggest POINT-OF-View shots (ie when the camera becomes the 'eyes' of one particular character,seeing what they see — a hand held camera is often used for this.

Camera Angles
Camera angles and movements combine to create a sequence of images, just as words, word order and punctuation combine to make the meaning of a sentence. You need a straightforward set of key terms to describe them. In order to attain any good shoots camera angle should be followed.
When describing camera angles, or creating them yourself, you have to think about three important factors.
When describing camera angles, or creating them yourself, you have to think about three important factors.
- The FRAMING or the LENGTH of shot
- The ANGLE of the shot
- If there is any MOVEMENT involved
SHOTS
The following are the most commonly used shots in photography. Let's get a look at them.
1.Extremely long shot
This type of shot as the word described extremely long the camera here is placed at a far distance of miles in order to capture an entire view of a building or any other thing depending on what you are taking a shot of. This shot takes wide part of an environment. eg

Contains a figure from the knees/waist up and is normally used for dialogue scenes, or to show some detail of action.Variations on this include the TWO SHOT (containing two figures from the waist up) and the THREE SHOT (contains 3 figures...). NB. Any more than three figures and the shot tends to become a long shot.Background detail is minimal, probably because location has been established earlier in the scene - the audience already know where they are and now want to focus on dialogue and character interation. Another variation in this category is the OVER-THE-SHOULDER-SHOT, which positions the camera behind one figure, revealing the other figure, and part of the first figure's back, head and shoulder.
4.close-up
This shows very little background, and concentrates on either a face, or a specific detail of mise en scène. Everything else is just a blur in the background. This shot magnifies the object (think of how big it looks on a cinema screen) and shows the importance of things, be it words written on paper, or the expression on someone's face. The close-up takes us into the mind of a character.
