Television media has become the most popular and influential media form at present. Here is a brief introduction to the top 30 shots of film and television production for your reference.
1, aerial lens
Aerial photography refers to shooting the terrain from the air to get a top view. The biggest advantage is that it can clearly show the geographical form, because the technical reason is the "aristocrat" in the lens. In recent years, with the development of unmanned aerial vehicles, although the cost has been reduced, high-quality aerial photography is still expensive, and it is also one of the most common lens techniques in film and television, especially for the beginning.
2. Arc motion lens
Arc lens, as its name implies, is the lens that the camera moves on the arc according to a certain circle, which can provide a variety of visual levels for the scene. It is one of the abused scenes in film and television. It requires little skill and technology, but it is difficult to master. Michael bay, the director of Transformers, has a soft spot for arc action shots.
Step 3 connect the lens
Bridge shots are generally used to show jumps in time or space and other shots that are not continuous with the plot, just like a line shuttling on a map. Cohesive shots play an irreplaceable role in promoting the plot of film and television, but the techniques used vary from person to person. Clever cohesive shots always make the audience feel natural.
4. Close-up shot
Close-ups, first created by director Griffith and others, are used to photograph the face of a portrait, a certain part of the human body and a certain detail of an object. Its appearance and application enrich and enhance the expressive force of the film, and it is also the most important part of lens aesthetics, and it is also the most favorite and memorable lens technique for the audience.
5. Seven-body lens
Cowboy lens, also known as cowboy, originated from Hollywood westerns in its heyday. The lens usually covers a person's head to his knees, that is, the seven-fold image, much like the depiction of a cowboy in a western film, with a gun from the beginning to the waist. Although westerns are dying, the seven-shadow lens has been completely transformed in the current film and television.
6. Mid-range shooting
The middle shot, the lower part of the picture is stuck in the left and right parts of the knee or part of the scene, is called the middle shot. The middle shot contains less scenery than the panorama, but more than the close-up, and the environment is in a secondary position, with the emphasis on showing the upper body movements of the characters. In film and television works, the middle shot occupies a large proportion because of its strong narrative.
7. telephoto lens
A long lens with a wide field of vision is often used to show the time, environment, scale and atmosphere of the event, such as the open natural scenery, mass scenes and war scenes. Focus on rendering the atmosphere and expressing emotions. In the perspective, we don't pay attention to the subtle movements of the characters, but we can implicitly express the inner feelings of the characters through the connection before and after.
8. Deep focal length lens
The deep focus lens uses the focal length to integrate all the depth of field such as foreground, middle shot and close shot into the lens. In film composition, we often seek the maximum depth of field and expose all the details in the lens. Gregg Toland, the earliest and most famous photographer of deep-focus lens in film history, and orson welles, the great director, are the ancestors of deep-focus lens.
9, sliding zoom
Dolly zoom is a very famous camera shooting technology. When the camera is moving forward, zoom photography is used at the same time to produce a zoom visual effect on the moving target object, thus effectively highlighting the target object in the picture and taking the subject as a structure with constant displacement and position in the scene.
10, fixed field lens
An Establishing Shot, which is used to clearly explain the position at the beginning of a movie or scene, is usually a wide field of vision. Still shots are usually combined with aerial shots and appear behind them.
1 1, lens up
Low-angle shooting, that is, the camera shooting vertically is lower than most subjects, which usually makes the main characters in the photos look taller. Of course, the application of low-angle shooting is not limited to this. The key lies in the combination of this low-angle shooting with the specific plot of the movie screen, such as shooting children and so on.
12, overhead lens
High-angle shooting means that any camera takes photos from a higher vertical position than most subjects, rather than from the top of the head. The high-angle lens also looks at the world from different angles, freeing the audience from the general parallel perspective.
13, lock painting lens
Lock-in refers to the fact that the shot picture is fixed in a certain range, but the action state of the characters is outside the picture, which is often used to express "it is not suitable for viewing here" or to think that hiding is more dramatic than showing it to the audience intuitively. It is often used in film and television works, but it can be used for a limited number of times in the same work, generally not more than three times.
14, hand-held camera lens
Hand-held shooting, the way the photographer controls the camera by hand, represents a style full of freedom, which is usually used to record a coherent action, widely used in documentaries and feature films, and the lens has a strong sense of documentary.
15, Dutch style straight up and down
Although Dutch Tilt is called Dutch, it actually has nothing to do with the Netherlands, but comes from Deutsch Angles in German, which refers to a vertically moving lens that shakes violently. This kind of lens technique is usually used to express the atmosphere of loss and confusion. Note that the angle of the picture is generally inclined.
16, library lens
Library shots, also called old shots, as the name implies, refer to the shots of old movies that have existed in libraries and film museums for a long time. Often quoted in film and television dramas, for nostalgia or other purposes. The well-known "old-lens movie" is like martin scorsese's "Hugo's Secret", which looks back at the great director George Meria from a child's perspective.
17, mask lens
Matt shooting is a method of composite photography, which means shooting two different shots on the same negative. In the past, due to backward technology, a glass-painted background was usually placed behind the advancing movement. Now with the development of science and technology, the method of matte shooting is mainly realized by computer, which also makes the content and form of lens realization in movies more abundant.
18, money lens
Money Shot is only more expensive, but not the most expensive. Money shots refer to those shots that cost a lot of money, especially in Hollywood blockbusters where CG special effects are developed and used at a high speed. Whether it's a variety of gorgeous explosion scenes or the running of dinosaurs, there are huge human and material resources behind these shots to feast their eyes on fans.
19, over-the-shoulder shooting
Over-The-Shot shot, shooting over the shoulders of one or more characters. Over-the-shoulder shot's role is to give the audience a bystander's perspective, and at the same time, to distinguish the primary and secondary through the specific spatial relationship between the shoulders and the main body of the picture in the lens frame. Over-the-shoulder shot is also one of the most common scenes in film and television, which is simple but not simple.
20. Turn the lens
As one of the four classic ways to push and pull the lens, the focus is on the horizontal movement of the lens, from left to right, or from right to left, just like the "PAN" in the English name of this lens, and the way the lens moves is like translation along the pan. Rolling lens is usually used to shoot moving car lens, such as The Fast and the Furious series movies.
2 1, subjective perspective lens
Viewpoint lens refers to the lens to show what the characters see through their subjective consciousness, so that what the audience sees or hears is consistent with what the characters themselves see or hear, and let the audience enter the inner world of the characters. Strictly speaking, subjective lens is not inferior to common lens techniques, but it accounts for a large proportion in psychological films and horror films.
22. Long shot sequence
Sequence shot is a kind of long shot shooting technique, which emphasizes continuous recording of a complete shot fragment without editing, and reproduces the real process of event development and the real scene atmosphere. Without the support of editing, sequence shots require very high photographic skills, because the recording of all lens fragments depends on the photographer's flexible scheduling and operation of the camera.
23. Camera stabilizer lens
Camera stabilizer lens, in which the camera stabilizer refers to the camera stabilizer, which means that the camera can move freely and smoothly by replacing the slide rail with the camera stabilizer. It was invented by the wizard Garrett M. Brown in 1970s. Once it came out, it brought a photography revolution to the whole film industry. In recent decades, the camera stabilizer lens has undertaken the mission of shooting most long shots of large scenes.
24. Tilt the lens
Tilt shooting refers to the camera moving the shot lens in the vertical direction, which corresponds to roll shooting, also called pitch shooting. The best example of oblique photography is tracking rising objects, such as balloons. When the lens wants to record the flight process of the balloon from the ground to the sky, the lens can start from pointing to the ground and end with pointing to the sky to track the trajectory of the balloon.
25. Top lens
The difference between overhead shooting and overhead shooting is that it is not shot from a person's point of view, but directly from a bird's eye view. Therefore, some expressive shapes and scenes are usually photographed from an angle that people can't reach at all, which turns the spatial position of people and the environment into a plane pattern with clear lines, thus making the picture have special interest and aesthetic feeling.
26. Push the guide lens.
Tracking shooting is to move the camera frame back and forth on the trolley or the side of the subject, and the trajectory is straight, which is the difference between it and rolling lens. Tracking often emphasizes the whole process of the lens picture, so it highlights the gradual change of the role or picture in promoting the film and television narrative, which has a sense of hierarchy and three-dimensional sense.
27, double lens
Double shot, as long as there are two main characters in the shot, can be regarded as double shot, which is one of the common shots in film and television, especially in some types of films with lovers and brothers as the theme. It's not difficult to have a double entrance, but if you want to master it skillfully, you have to consider the frame structure of the two subjects in the camera and the narrative requirements of the film and television story.
28. Shake the lens.
Whip disk, a kind of lens rolling, is only because the amplitude of the lens swing is too violent, which makes the lens picture look hard to recognize because of the violent shaking. Capturing is of special and vivid significance in camera language and film narration, such as the impact of unexpected situations such as sudden natural disasters on the role position, as well as the struggle and confusion of the role's own psychological activities.
29, zoom lens
Zoom lens, zoom lens is a kind of lens that can change the focal length in a certain range, so as to get different field of view angles, different sizes of images and different scene ranges. Zoom lens can change the shooting range by changing the focal length without changing the shooting distance, so it is very beneficial to picture composition. Zoom lens is a difficult film and television shooting skill, and it is one of the watersheds that distinguish mediocrity from master level in shooting technology.
30, lifting lens
A crane lens is a lens shot by a camera placed on the mechanical arm of an elevator or crane. The camera and photographer can move freely on this lifting device, so as to show the scene from multiple pilots, show the great momentum of the event or scene scale by showing all the parts shown from a height, and show different scene artistic conception through the use of vertical speed and rhythm.
