Camera angles

• High angle                                                                  

It is a camera angle that looks down upon a subject.

A character shot with a high angle will look vulnerable or small. 

These angles are often used to demonstrate to the audience a perspective of a particular character. This demonstrates to us the perspective or point of view of a dog. 

As a viewer we can understand that the dog feels sad.

         

• Low angle

It is a camera angle that looks up at a character. This is the opposite of a high angle and makes a character look more powerful. This can make the audience feel vulnerable and small by looking up at the character. This can help the responder feel empathy if they are viewing the frame from another character's point of view.

• Canted angle

A camera angle which is deliberately slanted to one side, 

sometimes used for dramatic effect to help portray unease, 

disorientation, frantic or desperate action.
