B1+Group+6

Group 6: Camera Position in Relationship to Action Members: Elle Riegert, Morgan Sternad,
 * middle of the action
 * front of the action
 * behind the action
 * to the side of the action
 * Explain how each of these might effect the shot? What mood would they evoke? When would they be used?

Middle of the Action: A middle of the action shot is used in a high action scene. It gives the viewer a good look on what's actually going on. This is commonly used in sports, so the viewer can see what's really going on. Normally in middle of the action shots, a hand held camera is used, so that sudden movements can be caught.



Front of the Action: A front of the action shot is when the camera is directly in front of the scene. This is the standard camera position in relationship to action. This allows the viewer to see true emotions and have a good view at the scene.



Side of the Action- A side of the action shot is a shot where the camera is at a side angle to the action. This would build up suspense and it would make it seem like you are not suppose to be there, like you are spying on someone.

Behind the Action- Behind the action is when the camera is behind the action. This would be shown in a car scene, and you were watching it drive away. It can also be used at the end of a movie if someone is walking away and the object would get smaller and smaller as it is getting farther and farther away from the camera.
