3. What is the purpose of camera angles?
4. Differentiate between the two types of scenes.

5. Identify the following camera movement techniques:
(a) Imagine you’re filming a scene where the heroine walks down a long hallway, revealing the grand interior
of a palace. What camera movement smoothly follows the heroine’s walk, keeping her in frame while
showcasing the environment?
(b) You’re directing a breathtaking mountain vista scene. What camera movement would slowly sweep across
the landscape, allowing viewers to drink in the entire view?

(c) You’re creating a suspenseful scene where a detective examines a crime scene photo. What camera movement
allows you to start with a wide shot of the photo, then slowly zoom in on a tiny, suspicious detail?
(d) You’re filming a high-speed chase scene through city streets. What camera movement keeps pace with the
speeding vehicles, putting viewers right in the heart of the action?
(e) Imagine you’re directing a scene where two characters are having a tense conversation. They’re both
important to the scene. How can you use a camera movement to smoothly switch your focus between them
without changing camera position?
(f) Describe a scene where you would combine different camera movements to create a specific mood or effect.
6. What activities are included in post-production process?
7. Identify the following camera angles:
(a) You’re directing a scene where a villain is interrogating a helpless character. What camera angle positions
the camera above the subject, emphasizing the villain’s power and the character’s helplessness?
(b) You’re filming a conversation between two close friends sharing a heartfelt moment. What camera angle
positions the camera at eye level with the characters, creating a sense of intimacy and connection?
(c) You’re designing a fight scene between two characters. What camera angle puts you right in the middle of
the action, mirroring the perspective of one of the fighters?
(d) You’re directing a scene from the perspective of a tiny mouse running through a kitchen. What camera
angle positions the camera very low to the ground, creating a sense of being small and overwhelmed by the
surroundings?
(e) You’re filming a scene where a secret agent is peeking through a keyhole to gather intel. What camera angle
replicates the limited view of the agent looking through the keyhole?
8. Imagine you’re a movie detective, tasked with cracking the code of a film. What are these mini-stories within a
movie called, and how do they work together to create the overall plot?
9. How is a wide shot different from an establishing shot?
10. Answer the following questions:
(a) What shot gets super close to show tiny details?
(b) What shot shows a vast area, like a landscape?

(c) What camera angle shows what a character sees?
(d) How are related scenes grouped together in a movie?
V. Long answer type questions.

1. What is a moving image? Give examples.
2. Imagine you’re directing the opening scene of a horror movie. How could you use different camera angles to
establish a sense of unease and foreshadow danger?
3. Explain any 3 types of lighting techniques.
