In this lesson we learnt about the different types of camera angels and shot types used.

Such as:
Medium shot (head to waist),Medium close up (Face and shoulders),Close up (Face), extreme close up (eyes and nose), ,medium long shot (all of the body up to the knees), high angle (see top of head), low angle (lower of head), titled frame, over the shoulder shot, two shot (Two people in a shot), extreme long shot (body and background), long shot (all of body).
