Extreme longshot,
Medium longshot,
Medium Close up,
Big close up,
Extreme close up.
Establishing shot: Opening shot or sequence, which is used to set the scene and establish where the scene is taking place. (Usually an extreme long shot.)
Two shots: This is when it includes two individuals in order to establish the relationship between them which provides us with understanding of who they are and status.
A point of view shot (POV): It is a shot which shows what that individual/character sees from their own personal view.
Angle of shot: It is the direction and height from which the camera scene takes place. For example a high angled shot could be used to show the aftermath of a disaster that has happened and familiarise us with the damage that it has done and the vulnerability of the people.
Master shot: a shot which shows all of the characters or people.
Panning shot: is where the camera moves slowly or quickly from side to side from a fixed axis.
Tilt shot: a tilt shot is when a camera moves up and down from a fixeed axis.
Crane shot: where the camera is mounted on a crane and moves around the area.
Tracking shot (or dolly shot): where the camera follows the action moving along tracks.
