1. The First Shot- it's a Panoramic shot that changes into a Close-Up on the man's face. It gives the audienhce a feel of the atmosphere that's in the office. The fact that it is empty, dark and gloomy connotes the feelings of the character. Obviously shown when we see a close up of the man's face. It is also a contrast to the excitement and wonder that is then present in the atmosphere when we see the man experiencing the wonder of The Black Hole.
2. The Second Shot-a Tilt shot from the hole on the sheet of paper POV from whatever is inside The Black Hole. I like this shot as it gives the audience the first idea that the hole is something more than a mistake. It was meant to be photocopied for a reason. The angle that it's at denotes that there is a presence inside the hole, almost like another dimention. A typical concept that is often used in a sci-fi film, there is always something extra there, watching you constantly.
3. Close Up-this is a very extraordinary shot as it is a close-up of the side of the face. Showing the reaction of the person. I find there isn't much you can do with a documentary when it comes to camera angles but in terms of close ups this is the most realistic and natural that you are gonna get when it comes to catching mannerisms and makes the documentary personal, especially when you're trying to get a message through to the audience it can be very touching.
I haven''t got a short film showing this but one of my favourite angles is my fourth and final shot/angle:
4. The Dutch Tilt-I love this as it gives the film a sense of unease. I would most probably use this in my short movie as I just love this shot although I would most probabaly have to use it in the right place and time if it was used anywhere else I think it would be a pointless shot.
Here is an example picture:
