Framing

Shot size and subject framing — from extreme wide to extreme close-up.

7 techniques

Extreme Wide ShotVast geography where figures are tiny or absent; pure world-building scale.

Wide ShotFull bodies and environment readable together for staging clarity.

Medium ShotRoughly waist-up coverage for conversation and gesture.

Close-UpFace or detail fills the frame for intimacy and micro-expression.

Extreme Close-UpIsolates eyes, hands, or objects at almost abstract proximity.

Two-ShotTwo subjects share the frame to show relational geometry.

Insert ShotTight detail cutaway that supplies information or emphasis.
