Production Blog: Camrea Angles

     We think camera angles are very important in a film. We think they are important because it can make a movie better with several different camera angles. Camera angles are important to enhance reactions, theme and the over all mood of a film. When a camera angle displays a reaction it is usually a close up or a over the shoulder shot. We plan to use many over the shoulder shots and medium close ups. We want to use medium close ups during our dialogue to display our emotions and facial expressions. For our over the shoulder shots we would like to have us both in a single shot over the shoulder. For example we will likely have a scene where we get into the car for a over the shoulder shot of us talking. Some other cameras angles we would like to incorporate would be a high angle to show the dog in the pool. Since they are important to our film we want to use as many as we can. Not only do we want to ensure our knowledge for camera angles but we also know how important they are to a film. These angles will get our reactions and feelings for the audience. We also will use a low angle for our final cliff hanger which will likely be " I want to move out". Me and my group mate have used that and decided it will be the best cliff hangar we can really do. The low angle would be shot on the ground and both of us would stand over it and discuss our ending. We decided that will be our ending because it makes sense. Two room mates one gets a dog and the other hates it and everything the dog destroys. We also want to use a song for the beginning but not sure which one. The dog would get into the pool and we will use it for our movie. We will use a high angle for the pool scene.
