POST 5 - Shots

Jump Cut - An abrupt cut from one scene to another to accelerate the speed of an event in TV or Film. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/jump+cut


Over-the-Shoulder Shots - When the camera is positioned to look over one person's shoulder at another's face, this allows the viewer to see from the first person's point of view.


Cutaways - When a wider shot frame is used to reveal more of the scene shown previosly, often with a purpose of showing something that was previously unseen.


Point of View Shots - A shot where the camera is positioned so it supposedly sees from a person's perspective.
