FIELD OF VIEW

When composing a shot, four variables work in conjunction to determine your field of view.

1.) Camera Location: The term point of view refers to the position of the camera in relation to the subject and is determined by physical location and angle.

2.) Camera Angle: The way a shot is composed. eye- level camera shots are seemed to be the least biased view because it helps to maintain the viewer's perception of a level playing field. High and low angle shots are used often to intensify emotion and energy.

3.) Subject Location: Subject placement can be done to fix/ provide better aesthetics, lighting, and sound isolation.

4.) Focal Length: Found on most video camcorders, the focal length lens gives you latitude to fine tune your framing. It's the focal lens that determines what portion of the viewable area of a scene is included in a shot and what is left out.
