types of camera angles in films
Eyelevel Angle. An eyelevel angle is the one in which the camera is placed at the subjectâs height, so if the actor is looking at the lens, he wouldnât have to look up or down. Eyelevel shots are incredibly common because they are neutral.
Whip pan: A type of pan shot in which the camera moves sideways so quickly that the picture blurs into indistinct streaks. It is commonly used as a transition between shots, and can indicate the passage of time and/or a frenetic pace of action. Also known as: swish pan, flick pan and zip pan.
