 * A tight photograph or shot, generally of the face and shoulders; a close shot.
 * A camera position between a close-up and a long shot--for instance, the view of a person from the head to the waist or lower; also called a // midshot // or // half-shot. //
 * A camera view that takes in the full vista, or breadth, of a scene or that is taken far away from the subject.
 * A wide area of a scene, often used to "establish" a scene.
 * A director might do shots closer up for dramatic effect, such as in a horror movie, the camera would be close up on the person, therefore, you can' t see whats happening around them.

high angle (from above)-

 * ====A high angle shows the subject from above, i.e. the camera is angled down towards the subject. This has the effect of diminishing the subject, making them appear less powerful, less significant or even submissive. ====

low angle (from below)-

 * ====This shows the subject from below, giving them the impression of being more powerful or dominant. ====

straight on (eye level)-

 * ====This is the most common view, being the real-world angle that we are all used to. It shows subjects as we would expect to see them in real life. It is a fairly neutral shot. ====

dutch angle (camera is tilted)-

 * Also known as a dutch tilt, this is where the camera is purposely tilted to one side so the horizon is on an angle. This creates an interesting and dramatic effect. Famous examples include Carol Reed's The Third Man, Orson Welles' Citizen Kane and the Batman series.
 * Dutch tilts are also popular in // MTV-style // video production, where unusual angles and lots of camera movement play a big part.

why and when might the director choose these, how do they effect the mood of the shot?

 * The director might use different angles for different scenes because they create different effects. For example, if the camera is tilted it may seem as though the camera fell.
