Technology of Motion PicturesIntrashot Communication• Camera Angle - The position/perspective of the
camera (viewer) to the subject.• Eye Level - Camera is placed face on to the subject• Low Angle - Camera is below the subject looking up
on it. Since this is the child perspective of an adult, the low angle is thought to strengthen the subject. Anyone above your view is a superior, threatening or dominant.

Technology of Motion PicturesIntrashot Communication -Lenses• Normal lens – A lens that creates an image similar to
way we normally see the world.
Technology of Motion PicturesIntrashot Communication -Lenses• Wide Angle Lenses – Provide a wider field of view,
deeper focus, and exaggerated depth.

defined. • Deep Focus -When everything, or almost everything,
in a shot is clearly in focus, deep focus is achieved.• Soft Focus - Certain creative situations call for
images that are not harsh and sharp but muted. Soft focus is usually achieved by placing something in front of the lens (gauze), something on the lens (Vaseline), or slightly defocusing the lens. Older actors used to insist on gauze shots in closeups in order to hide the signs of their age.
