Crane shot-  this clip from desperate housewives shows the lane they live in and gives an aerial view and establishes  location.  It’s also the first ever episode so it shows the audience where everything is set. Its used when the camera itself moves up or down and is usually placed higher above the ground.

Crash zoom shot- this is an example where the camera is zoomed in to the focus of the clip and then quickly zooms out to show the full scene. The focused is pulled away making  the object appear closer or further away. When it zooms out its done very fast.

Whip pan- this is a whip pan shot where a sudden fast pan flashes past to go to another angle.  The camera is focused on two people and then suddenly switches to the gate to focus on that it also blurs while moving which could create a confusing twist.

Tracking shot- this is a perfect example of a tracking shot from the classic film Pulp fiction. The camera is moving itself towards the man following him throughout the clip. Tracking shot is usually used when the camera is running along a small track.

Worms eye view- this is a worms eye view as you child is coming towards the camera and the camera is laid down flat on the slide. The angle is on the lowest point of the ground to emphasise how big the other objects are makes the baby seem powerful as the angle is also looking upwards.

Low angle shot- this clip shows high and low angle shots to portray status. The nurse has a low angle shot to make her seem more powerful and important. The man has a high angle shot to make him seem small and vulnerable. This helps the audience user stand there characters and status.
