Camera angels & Positions

In my music video, I want to use an range of different angels and shots as I want to create different effects by using different contrasts and I want to keep the audience interested also I want use black and white scenes I will do this by editing the clips in the editing progress. I want to use different mixtures of shots as:

    • Extreme close up -
      I want to use an extreme close up of the male character eyes so he is connecting with the audience; also I want to use an extreme close up of the characters mouth when he is singing.
  • close up-
    I want to use an close up shot as I think its an powerful shot as you  can see the characters emotion  and also you can see the character true colours , I am going to use this range of shot  of the male and female character s face in the music video .
    • medium shot-
      I want to use a medium shot as you can create a different length of shot and you can limit on what you can see also you can create different cuts with this angel. I want to use an medium shot when filming in front of a white back ground for the singing section in my music video also I want use an medium shot when cutting between the two characters.

  • long shot-
    I want to use an long shot as you can see the whole body of the characters body and also you can see what the characters looks like, I want to use an long shot of the male character singing also I want to inter shot between shots to create an atmosphere.
  • over the shoulder shot-
  • I want to use an over the shoulder shot as you can see the characters emotion on their face also it shows a sense of discussion/connection between the two characters.




  • two shot-
    I want to use a two shot as you can create an establishing shot of a relationship and you can see both of the characters emotion in the shot.
  • tilt- i want to use an tilt shot as you can create different angles then keeping  the camera on the same level.


I want to use a hand held camera shot in one of the scenes as the music videos seems as a home video and it the audience can relate to the music video.
