US
Image result for the movie US point of view shots
The movie "US" is a psychological thriller film. Various shots from the film brought upon a variety of emotions onto the audience and myself too. There was a specific scene however that I realized was using a lot of point of view shots which made me feel really creeped out as if I was in the same situation as them. The point of view shot gave me a "look into their eyes" type of atmosphere, it allowed the audience to feel on edge, watching through their eyes about what will happen next.

Another shot that was common in the movie was the close up shots which allowed me to see the emotion portrayed the actors/actresses faces to see what they are really feeling at the moment. There was a mixture of different camera shots and angles, but the most that stuck out to me were the close up and point of view shots. This really brought out the fear and emotions out of me. The close up shot made us feel the anxiety and anticipation when the camera zoomed onto her face signaling that something horrific would happen in a few seconds.

This was an example of a high angle shot in one of the movie series of Harry Potter where as Harry appears to be looking up at something much bigger than him which causes him to be filled with fear. This shot brings a sense of fear & adrenaline from the angle it's shot from.
 Image result for low angle shots in movies
This was a low angle shot in the movie "Wolverine", the angle makes him seem like a powerful person due to the size of him and his posture. This angle portrays him as a strong, "god-like" person.
Image result for oblique shots in movies
This is an oblique shot in the movie "Thor", this shot was to create a disoriented type of look to through the audience off balance and instability.
Image result for bird eye view shots in movies
This is an example of a bird eye view or "aerial" shot. this lets you take in the view and setting of the area while making the character appear small in a way.
