filming techniques

Filming techniques include various methods to craft a visual story, such as framing (how subjects are placed in the shot), camera angles (e.g., high, low, eye-level to evoke mood), and movement (like panning or tracking to follow action). Lighting can set mood and focus attention, while focus techniques guide viewers’ eyes. Shot types—close-up, medium, or wide—highlight characters or environments. Editing choices, like cuts and transitions, create pacing and flow. Sound design complements visuals, enhancing emotion and clarity. These techniques work together to tell a story visually, immersing viewers and conveying mood, character, and narrative intent effectively.
