Camera shots and Angles to be used for video

Extreme Wide Shot This will feature in our video to introduce establishing shots.

Wide Shot The subject takes up the full frame, or at least as much as comfortably possible.
AKA: long shot, full shot. The wide shot will be used consistently through our music video, to establish locations, characters and relationships.

Medium Close Up Half way between a Mid Shot and a Close Up. The medium shot will be a consistent part of our video, as it will concentrate on the miming of the lyrics.

Master Shot This will be used in our video to show the composition and relationship between the two main characters and it also enables the audience to contextualise the action before it happens.

Close Up The close up will be used in several parts of our video, as it allows the audience to interact and relate to the character.

Extreme Close Up The Extreme Close Up gets right in and shows extreme detail. As already stated, we plan to concentrate on close ups, but it is in our plan also to use extreme close ups to show emotion and increase dramatic effect.

Cutaway A shot of something other than the subject. A cutaway will also feature in parts of the video, in order to introduce new objects and motifs.

Two-Shot A shot of two people.  This will be most common within our video, as the lyrics refer to one character missing another, so we will portray this using Two Shots.

Over-the-Shoulder Shot Looking from behind a person at the subject. We plan to create over the shoulder shots in parts of the video when ‘Olly Murs’ is reminiscing and ‘Thinking about you’.

Jump Cuts We plan to use this to break continuity of time, pace and action.

Reaction Shot This will be used for ‘Olly Murs’ to react to previous shots of the girl being with someone else.
