Here is a two shot. This is where two characters are filmed in the frame together, usually from the mid chest up. This can give the audience an impression that everything in this scene may appear to be balanced although that isn't always the case.

This is a close up shot. Used to show characters emotions. Usually, the closer the camera is to the character, the more emotions the audience start to develop and the more we actually learn as an audience. It calls attention to the subject.

This is an extreme close up. It can give the audience a different perspective of the character and helps the audience see a character differently, if that's what the director had intended. It usually draws a lot of attention to one subject.

This is a dutch tilt. It is used to force the audience to pay more attention to the settings around the character and pay more attention to the scene. It may also be used to portray a certain characters emotions. For example, if a character is worried, it may help the audience understand that emotion. 

This is an over the shoulder shot. It is used when two characters are having a conversation. It helps the audience to focus on the things being said and the tones in which they are said. This angle may be important in some films because it helps the characters emotions to be shown a lot easier.

High angle shots are used to portray the character  in a smaller perspective to the audience. This angle may be used to show the character in a different way of help emphasis the scene.

Medium shot. This is used to show the audience exactly what may be happening in the scene and gives the audience some sort  of idea as to what might happen.

POV shots are used to make the audience feel alot more close to the character and also makes them feel almost as if they are the character. It is very emotionally attaching for a viewer.



this is a low angle, it tries to make a character seem alot more powerful and important to other characters. Its used alot in action films to make it clearer to an audience who is more important or who is the villain in the film.
