Close up:
Worry
Fear
Anger
Close-ups are used to convey emotions and show the audience what the character is feeling through their facial expressions.
Shot reverse shot/ over shoulder shot:
The shot reverse shot is mostly used to show conversations and allows the audience to see the actors' facial expressions whilst they talk to each other and avoids confusion as the audience knows who's talking. For example it could show love by showing both actors' emotions.
Low-Angle Shot:
This is when the camera is positioned below the actors, this makes the scene/characters look more important and gives a stronger feel. In this shot it makes it look more surreal and magical.
Birds-Eye View:
Birds-eye view shows the scene from above, it allows the audience to see everything from above, in this particular shot we see a surreal shot.
Point-of-view Shot:
This angle allows us to see what the character is looking at so its like we are there in their place. In this case the character is looking at a button.
2-Shot:
The 2-shot is used to show two characters within the frame at once and show a connection or emotion within the two.
Well done Deniz! A fantastic group of example shot types from Doctor Who. You have demonstrated a good understanding of the conventions of each shot type e.g a close up denotes the emotional response of a character.
