The document provides guidance on making basic videos, including choosing a digital video camera, understanding basic camera functions and buttons, using different camera angles and shots to frame subjects, ensuring good audio quality, planning interviews and storyboards, and sharing finished videos online. Key tips include using a tripod for steady shots, leaving space around subjects who may move within the frame, conducting sound checks, and filming longer than necessary to allow for editing.
6. 4. Camera angles (1) The angle that a camera holds in position to the subject may have a psychological effect on the viewer. Bird’s eye view: Directly from above. Subjects may become unrecognizable, people may look like ants High-angle: The viewer looks down on the subject from an angle. Subjects become part of a wider setting Eye-level: As observed by humans, a quite neutral shot. Low-angle: Increases height of subjects, the viewer is being looked down upon by the subject. The setting becomes less obvious since only sky or ceiling are visible in the background. Canted (Dutch) angle: A tilted camera position to suggest imbalance and instability and a specific point of view.
