When describing camera positions (or shots), different terms are used to indicate the amount of subject matter contained within a frame, how far away the camera is from the subject, and the perspective of the viewer. Each different shot has a different purpose and effect. A change between two different shots is called a CUT.

When choosing camera angles or deciding which ones to use you have to think about different aspects such as, the framing or the length, the angle and if there is any movement involved.
