What are the shooting angles?

Ping She, up, down, top, back and side.

1, Ping She: the shooting angle of the camera and the subject at the same horizontal line. Ping She can be generally divided into front, side and inclined plane.

2. Shoot upward: The camera shoots from a lower position. Upward photography is suitable for shooting high-altitude scenery, which can make the scenery look more tall and majestic. Use it to represent the line of sight of film and television characters, and sometimes to represent the high and low positions between objects.

3. overhead photography: contrary to overhead photography, the camera shoots down from a height, giving people the feeling of overlooking. The overhead lens has a wide field of vision and is unique in the broad scene.

4. Top shot: The shooting direction of the camera is perpendicular to the ground. It is unique to shoot some acrobatic programs or song and dance performances with the top corner. It can make some expressive shapes into exquisite pictures from an angle that one can't reach at all. The function of aerial photography is that it changes the normal state of the subject, changes the spatial position of people and environment into a plane pattern with clear lines, and thus makes the picture interesting and aesthetic. The head angle is rare in film and television.

5. Reverse shooting: a shooting method when the film in a movie camera passes through the film gate and runs in the opposite direction. In this way, the motion process of the photographed object can be projected forward, and the effect opposite to the actual motion direction can be obtained. Reverse photography is often used to shoot thrilling scenes. In TV shooting, the reverse shooting method is also commonly used.

6. Side reflection shooting: shooting from the back of the subject is called side reflection shooting. In this way, the figure almost becomes the back, and the face presents less, which can produce a wonderful feeling.
