With the number of landscapes, selfies, and cappuccinos on social media platforms like Instagram and Tumblr, how come only a select few of them really grab your attention? The answer- camera angles.
1.The Bird’s Eye View:
This angle gives the viewer a top of the scene. It is often used to establish the setting.
2. High Angles:
A high angle looks down upon a subject. It often makes the subject seem vulnerable.
3. Low Angles:
Low angles do the opposite of high angles. They make the subject seem powerful and like a figure of authority.
4. The Dutch Angle:
This angle is a slightly tilted angle. It is used to demonstrate the confusion of the character.
5. Over the Shoulder:
The Over the Shoulder angle gives the viewer the same perspective as the subject. It is used to show the viewer what the subject is seeing.

Hi Tejaswi
It was great meeting you at TEDx. Gabrielle and Joshua’s emails are the same as mine, name.surname at gmail. Except Joshua is just Josh.
We also love photography. You can see a lot of our photo stream if you search for my name on Flickr.
Hope to bump into you again somewhere, and please let us know if you’re arranging a TEDx event.
Hey, sorry it took so long to reply. It was great meeting you too! I will definitely check out your photography, and I will let you know if there are any TEDx events coming up.
