Our shot list shows all the specific camera shots for our opening sequence of Hostility. There is a variety of different shots used to show emotion and other shots to show who the protagonist is and the antagonist.
 Below are pictures and explanations of all different types of shots:


ECU - Extreme Closeup:


The extreme close up is used to reveal very small details in the scene. It might be used to reveal horror in a subject (extreme close up of the subject's mouth as she/he screams). It might also be used in a mystery to show some detail that the detective picks up on or to show some small clue.



 
MS - Medium Shot:


The medium shot is from just below the waist to above the head. There is more headroom than in the bust shot. This show is used if the person is animated with their hand movements, etc.
 
LS - Long Shot:


This shot is useful for someone that is walking or moving.

ELS - Extra Long Shot:


Also known as the Establish shot, this gives the viewer some perspective as to where the subject is. This is very important if the subject is moving to new locations or times. It lets the viewer know where the video is taking place.

Two Shot:


Two-shots are composed when two people are in the scene and their interaction is important. A two-shot is a good way to introduce a conversation. From the introduction you might cut to an over the shoulder shot of one person talking or a close-up of the other person reacting to what is being said.


Over-the-shoulder shot:
 

 The over the shoulder shot reveals one subject as seen from over the shoulder of another subject. It simulates a view of the subject as seen from the second person's eyes. This shot is often used in conversations between two people where the director wants to focus on the person speaking. Usually these shots are head shots (close ups of the speaker).

CU - Close Up:

The close up shot is used to reveal detail. If you are shooting just the head and shoulders of a subject this is a close up.
