CINEMATOGRAPHY

• Cinematography is the art and craft of making motion pictures by capturing a story visually. Though, technically, cinematography is the art and the science of recording light either electronically onto an image sensor or chemically onto film. 
• It's like photography but with movies.The things that make a good photograph also apply to making visually appealing movies. There are a lot of things that affect it. Lighting, setting, framing/composition, subject, how motion is captured, scene transition.

• Type of cinematography

1. Mid long shot : Cinematographers use this shot size, which frames characters from their waist up, to show how lonely a character is at the center of an empty frame.
2. Medium shot :shot that shows the subject from the waist up. Medium shots draw attention to both the character and their surroundings by giving them equal space in the frame.
3. Full shot :. In a full shot, a character is framed from head to toe and is usually intended to place it in some relation to its surroundings.
4. Big close up :frames a subject very closely, often so much so that the outer portions of the subject are cut off by the edges of the frame. 
5. Over head shot  : when the camera is placed directly above the subject. It's somewhere around a 90-degree angle above the scene taking place.
6. Arial view : shot that's taken from an elevated vantage point than what is framed in the shot. Aerial shots gives viewers a deeper understanding of what is happening below, both literally and metaphorically. Example of Arial view below here
