Camera Angles and Shots

A day in the life of...
Goal: Students will experiment with camera angles and camera shots

Students will tell a tale using the camera angles and shots referred to on their worksheets.

We will also make objects appear to be moving.

Slanted Table Video:

Things are taped to the wall and onto the table to sell the illusion that all is normal. The main character sits on a regular way, but he leans the right way. Then the camera is set at the same tilted angle and Presto! You have a normal view of a normal man sitting normally at a table.

Different object move at different speeds when using fabric or tablecloths. This allows you to create cool effects. Just off screen, a helper will load things onto the table. At the other end, they will catch them before they fall off.

You must use three angles and three different shots in your "Moving Object Show"
