The attention is focused on the environment of the performer.<br \/>\nThe <span style=\"color: #993300;\">extreme long shot<\/span> is mainly used as an intermediate scenario to carry the general environment and mood to the viewer.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Total<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nThe <span style=\"color: #993300;\">long shot<\/span> focuses on the actors. Which actor has which role, how they should affect the viewer.<br \/>\nThe <span style=\"color: #993300;\">long shot<\/span> is often chosen as the opening scene to introduce you, the viewer, to the characters and roles in the film.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Half-total<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nIn <span style=\"color: #993300;\">semi-stills <\/span>, as the name implies, the actors are shown halfway.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #993300;\">Half-takes<\/span> are used to depict the human relationship of different characters to each other.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Close up<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n <span style=\"color: #993300;\">Close-ups<\/span> are used to highlight and present individuals.

Heated dialogues can thus be put on display. Alternating with <span style=\"color: #993300;\">close-ups<\/span> that show only a head or the facial expression of the mouth or eye, different atmospheres are created.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Perspectives<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nIn addition to the different settings, there are the perspectives:<br \/>\nThe perspectives are from <span style=\"color: #993300;\">normal<\/span>, <span style=\"color: #993300;\">high<\/span> and <span style=\"color: #993300;\">small<\/span> <span style=\"color: #993300;\">angles<\/span> <span style=\"color: #993300;\">.<\/span><br \/>\nThe <span style=\"color: #993300;\">normal<\/span> <span style=\"color: #993300;\">viewing angle <\/span>takes place at eye level with the viewer, whereas a <span style=\"color: #993300;\">high<\/span> <span style=\"color: #993300;\">viewing angle<\/span> portrays the actor as frail and delicate. On the contrary to the <span style=\"color: #993300;\">small<\/span> <span style=\"color: #993300;\">angle<\/span>, where the performer looks respectful and dominant.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">How does your audience respond to different perspectives and attitudes?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n  <span style=\"color: #993300;\">1. <\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><br \/>\n  <strong>Analyze behavior<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/span>Eye tracking is a new technology.

Here, too, the viewer&#8217;s feelings are influenced by the various settings and can be specifically controlled.<br \/>\nThe various settings are created and specified when the storyboard is created. Here it already becomes clear how the scene affects the viewer. How does the product arrive most authentically and effectively, in interaction with the environment? Using an extreme long shot or as a close-up and absolute focus on the product, or a detail of the product?<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few examples of the different camera settings using an explainer video:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Extreme long shot<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The environment and the scene are captured in general and give you an overview.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Total<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>With the long shot, you can see at a glance who is playing and who is taking on which role.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Half-total<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In the half-total, a character is presented, of whom, as the name suggests, mostly the upper body is visible.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Close up<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Close-up can show people, but also details of an offer or a process.

A product should not appear frail or dominant by focusing on it from above or below.
