There are long shots, medium shots and close-up in the films. Each kind of shots denotes a specific meaning to describe the right mood, emotions of characters. I choose the film “The Notebook” to illustrate this concept.
Long shot: It was the night of the carnival, and that’s when Noah met Allie. It’s an orientation shot and gives a setting to the story. Allie just refused to dance with Noah, and Noah was standing there alone at the amusement park.
Medium shot: This is an information shot. Allie was there with her friends in the carnival, and Noah was trying to introduce himself to Allie. Noah fell in love with her at first sight and he wanted know more about her.
Close up: This shot reflects Noah’s internal feelings and emotions perfectly. This is where audience sense the affection Noah had on Allie from the light in his eyes. He was being drawn to Allie.
