An extreme close up focuses tightly on a specific detail, an extreme long shot provides a wide panoramic view of the landscape while still showing a main point, and a close up captures a character's face and shoulders taking up most of the screen. A high angle shot gives the sense of being watched from above, a low angle provides a first-person view looking up at something dominant, and a medium shot balances the background and character. A long shot shows a panoramic background while keeping the main object present.
