VFX - Camera Angles
Camera angles
The 180 Rule - Used for filming dialogue scene. Its where you keeps the camera angles and characters on the same side when talking to each other. You don't go past 180 degrees around the characters.
Eye level/ Straight angle - The camera will be shooting straight ahead, roughly at eye level and is a neutral angle.
Low angle - Filmed below eye line, this is used to then make a character look strong or heroic and is used to show perspective.
High angle - The camera is held above eye line and is usually mounted on a crane. This is used to show the character is weak and powerless.
POV shot - shows the perspective of the character, used frequently in horror movies to build tension and mood. Experience it as if it was you.
Dutch tilt - Where the camera is tilted at a certain degree to create the sense of phycological uneasiness and if the character is under the influence of a substance.
Birds eye view - Where the camera is revealing the scene for a birds eye view, and can show the perspective well e.g. like the view from the top of a skyscraper.
