Second Lesson - Working with Camera Angles

We were put into groups where we had to focus on different camera angles. I was with Charley, Ana, Zoe, Kayleigh, Hannah and myself. The first scene we had to create was a disruptive classroom, which we recreated and took a low camera shot. This gives the person viewing it the sense that the people in the photo were dominant. Next we had the dentist waiting room, i think we achieved a good photo by using some of sitting down, as if we were in a waiting room, i was holding my mouth as if i had a tooth ache. Zoe was also in the picture walking towards the makeshift desk as if coming up for an appointment. The shot involved a lot of things to look at making it seem like a busy waiting room, i think our overall result was good. The busy office was probably the most hardest shot to achieve. We took a high camera shot making the people at there desks seem small and vulnerable, The shot wasnt as believable as the others due to the fact it looked to much like a classroom! This was probably my least favourite shot of the 4. The last shot was the romantic meal. This was most likely my funnest one to do, it was enjoyable. We had two people sitting opposite each other at a table in the background. In the foreground we had another two people opposite each, looking at each other lovingly. There was also someone who was 'taking our orders' in the background, making it look like it was a more believable shot. The shot was a mid shot, only involving our upper half of our bodies, it  was good as it looked believable. Either the romantic meal or the disruptive classroom were our best shots. Although I still enjoyed doing the romantic meal one the most! My least favourite was the Busy office, it was a hard shot to do and i dont think we did as well as we could have.
