1. Extreme long shot - can
be taken from as much as a quarter of a mile away, and is generally used as a
scene-setting, establishing shot. It normally shows an exterior, for example
the outside of a building, or a landscape.
2.
Long Shot - This
category includes the FULL SHOT showing the entire human body, with the head
near the top of the frame and the feet near the bottom. While the focus is on
characters, plenty of background detail still emerges.
3. Medium Shot - Contains a figure from the knees/waist up and is one
of the common shots used on magazines.
4.
Close-Up - shows very little background, and concentrates on either
a face, or a specific detail of mise en scène. Everything else is just a blur
in the background. This shot magnifies the object and shows the importance of things, be it words written on
paper, or the expression on someone's face.
5. Extreme Close-Up - is an extreme version of the close up, magnifying beyond what the human eye would
see. An extreme close-up of a face, would show only the mouth or eyes, with no
background detail.
