Glossary: FILM & TV GLOSSARY
worm's eye view | |
---|---|
A worm's-eye view is a view of an object from below, as though the observer were a worm. It can also mean perceiving something from a humble position. Contrast with bird's-eye view. A worms eye view is a view from close to the ground. | |
connote | |
---|---|
A concept can "connote" a particular meaning (or set of close ideas) that goes beyond its defined meaning. It is something else implied. Connotations may be universally understood or may be significant only to a certain group of people or cultures. A rose may connote romance, for example, beyond its direct meaning as a flower | |
over the shoulder shot | |
---|---|
Looking from behind a person at the subject, cutting off the frame just behind the ear. The person facing the subject should occupy about 1/3 of the frame. This shot helps to establish the positions of each person, and get the feel of looking at one person from the other's point of view. | |
zoom | |
---|---|
Shot which moves closer to, or away from, the subject using the lens rather than moving the whole camera in or out. | |
DIGITAL CINEMATOGRAPHY | |
---|---|
Digital Cinematography is the process of capturing motion pictures as digital images, rather than on film. Digital capture may occur on tape, hard disks, flash memory, or other media which can record digital data. As digital technology has improved, this practice has become increasingly common. Many mainstream Hollywood movies now are shot partly or fully digitally. | |
