Camera Shots and Camera Angles Poster


This is the final result of a the first practical task that I completed using photoshop. I was told to take still photos to demonstrate the different camera shots and camera angles that are used throughout media studies. The target audience was GCSE students to help them understand what each shot and angle looks like and would aslo help them when it came to coursework. I was told to make the subject of the photograph interesting, keep the framing suitable and to also think about a narrative. The list of shots that we were given were; Extreme long shot, long shot, mid shot, close up, extreme close up, low angle shot, eye-level shot, high angle shot, worm's eye view, canted angle shot, bird's eye view, establishing shot, point of view shot and an over the shoulder shot.
This task enabled me to gain basic understanding of how to use photoshop and that the features that it has enables me to create a poster using the effects that it has.This task was a good chance to explore all of the things that i can use and the basic tools such as how to re-size image, put effects on text and how to make a coloured background.
