6 Shots System

1. Extreme Close Up

In an extreme close up shot you want to get the head only and make sure the camera is focused on the face. You will need to cut off part of the chin and forehead so that the main part of the picture is the face. You also want to use the rule of thirds and make sure the face is not on center and slightly towards the corners.   

2. Close Up Of Hands

In this shot you want the hands to fill the screen and be on focus. Which I didn't get a very good shot in this picture. There should be a little bit of the background behind the hands of what the person is doing. You should also use the rule of thirds when taking this shot.

                

                      3. Over The Shoulder

During an over the shoulder shot you can see what the subject is doing and get a look at their perspective. In this shot you want to include a part of the shoulder and try to get it from the angle that the subject is looking.      

4. Medium

 In this shot the subject should be seen from 

waist to forehead. This will give us a view on 

who the subject it. The focus point should be 

focused on the subject and the rule of thirds 

should be

5. Wide

In a wide shot the subject should be seen from head to toe

and the focus point should be on the subject. You should be able to see a little bit of what the subject is doing and the rule of thirds should be used on this shot.

6. Extreme Wide Shot

In an extreme wide shot the subject and the setting should be seen. So that the person looking at the photo can see where the subject is and what the subject is doing.
