How to choose the shooting angle of the product?

Ping She camera and subject are at the same shooting angle. Ping She can be generally divided into front, side and inclined plane. Frontal shooting, the optical axis of the lens is consistent with the apparent horizon (or center point) of the object, which constitutes frontal shooting. The advantages of the front lens are: the picture looks dignified and the composition is symmetrical. Used to shoot magnificent buildings and give people a panoramic view; Shooting people can truly reflect the positive image of people. Its disadvantage is poor stereoscopic impression, so scene scheduling is often used to increase the depth of the picture. Side shooting, shooting from the direction at right angles to the apparent horizon of the object, is called side shooting. The side shot is divided into left and right sides. The characteristics of side shot are helpful to outline the outline of the object. Oblique, the shooting angle between the front and the side is oblique. Oblique shooting can show both sides of an object in one picture at the same time, giving people a distinct three-dimensional sense. Oblique shooting is the most common shooting angle in film and television teaching materials.

The camera shoots from a low position to a high 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. Because of perspective, the horizontal line in the picture is lowered, the contrast between the objects in the foreground and the background is changed, and the objects in the foreground are highlighted and exaggerated, thus obtaining special artistic effects. In film and television teaching materials, shots are often used to express people's praise for heroes or awe of certain objects. The elevation angle is approximately vertical, which is called large elevation angle. Generally, it represents the point of view of the character to express his mental state such as dizziness and fainting.
